Version 1.3 now available on NEXUS. Had to get rid of those "sanctimonious priests" (the rep change was causing problems). Includes a few more History corrections and introduces some more appropriate wording to parse with the History texts better. Refined the script somewhat.

OP updated to reflect this.

Version 1.4 is now available on Nexus: Removed/changed some answers giving items that are forbidden to the Class concerned (why would the Emperor or your mother gift you stuff you can't use). Each class has the potential to now claim the Ebony Dagger (after-all, Short Blades aren't forbidden to any Class) and the Archer gets to start with as many arrows as the Ranger did.

Updated OP to reflect this. Hopefully this is the final version.

Version 1.5 is now available on NEXUS: Redone the changes from v1.4 (the BIOG files weren't working, but are fixed now) and made a small corrective edit to text string 4164 (removed an unnecessary full-stop).

Apparently the BIOGs need a couple of blank lines at the end of each text file or they won't work.

Updated OP to reflect this.

Version 1.6 has been uploaded to NEXUS: Added some alternate consequences to the "You are intimate friends with..." question, relaxed (somewhat) the notion of not giving items that are forbidden to a class (should any Custom Classes without the same disadvantages use those BIOG files), added a bit more choice to some answers and improved some consequences for balance. Made a few more corrections in the History texts.

Hopefully the FINAL version (barring any unforeseen fixes).

Updated OP to reflect this.

Version 1.7 has been uploaded to NEXUS: Corrected a minor discrepancy in the Healer BIOG. Corrected a spelling mistake in text string 4164. Removed extraneous references in the Mage, Healer, Acrobat, Monk, Ranger, and Barbarian BIOGs that aren't used in the histories (these were in the default BIOGs - probable left-overs from development that didn't end up being used).

Hopefully the FINAL version (barring any more unforeseen fixes).

Version 1.8 had been uploaded to NEXUS: Removed the references to the Language Skills Overhaul mod from the standard BIOGs and instead provided an alternate set of BIOGs for use with that mod that changes the text in the relevant answers to match the new skills. DFmod is the same as v1.7.

OP has been updated accordingly.
