I'm playing Release Candidate 1 of Exult, on a Windows 98 system.

After the Monitorian Knight ceremony, I talked to two of the characters in the banquet hall, then I talked to the character who has Dupre's Shield. At the moment I can't remember his name.

I made him angry at me and he challanged me to a duel. I then turned on pickpocket mode and stole Dupre's shield. When I talked to the man again, my character portrait has permanently been turned into Petra (The female automotan)

I'm using the newest Exult release, but my save game is about a month old. I remember there was an issue prior that dealt with people getting their character portrait messed up so I don't want to immediatly submit a bug report.

Am I suffering from an old bug, or should I submit a bug report?






And on a mildly related note, when you go into pickpocket mode, the gender of the person you're pickpocketing is often different then their paperdoll. I was kind of shocked the first time this happened :)

You probably hit the wrong key combination. Alt-P toggles 'Petra-mode'.

The gender in paperdoll thing is due to paperdolls only being defined for the Avatar and companions. Pretty much everyone else defaults to the White Female Avatar paperdoll.
