Thanks for all the info! I'm really into games with good stories. (That's why I *adore* PLANESCAPE: TORMENT. You should really check it out if you haven't played it. It's got the most interesting and complex story of any game I've played.)

Anyway, I get the impression from the FAQ's at The Locus Inn (see link below) that Beyond Divinity isn't exactly a sequel to Divine Divinity. I'm guessing that our hero in BD isn't the Divine One, just one of his paladins who got thrown into Nemesis.

Anyone know if I'm right or wrong?
