Biography
When asked about her past AMBER claims that she has no memories of her early childhood. Not of her parents or of the place she grew up in. Hesitantly she tells you that she lived years in the streets of Waterdeep until some unfortunate incident involving the local thieves guild and city guard forced her to move to Luskan. There she only barely escaped an angry mob with the help of a young bard called Jill. As she speaks warmly of Jill and respectfully of the bard's brother Tristan, Amber's expression lightens somewhat. You can clearly understand that the two girls were close, but there is sadness in her eyes that tells you that her friend is long gone. As Amber's story goes on, you begin to wonder how old this exotic creature really is. She has visited lands so far away - from the frozen north to the heat of the southern deserts, travelled years with a circus group and yet her face betrays no signs of age. When you try to ask her about her age, she responds that it does not matter as the people around her never change, no matter how much time passes by. Prejudices die hard if ever.

Player Feedback and Reviews
- Mahokenshi: (Read review) "[...] I want to thank the creators for providing such an interesting game add-on for free. I am a sucker for a good story and a well drawn character; and Amber has both. Cheers!"
- Anonymous: "Just finished the mod and I just have got to say WOW!! This is one of the best mods *ever*. Amber is superb and I don't mean in the romantic term alone but as a character as a whole. I can no longer imagine playing BG2 without her, she has one of the best personalities; I just love the way you balanced her out, she has that demonic suspicion and that humane compassion and the naughtiness of both!! Well I'm not very good at expressing myself but I just wanted you to know that you created one high quality mod, and I salute you (bows respectfully)."
- gertjanvh: (Read review) "After her soul started to unfreeze, I saw her passion, her determination to have faith in the often cold and dark world, her skill of survival, her unrelentless devotion to her former friend Jill, and as I later realised, to me.
- "[...] I really, really enjoyed this mod and it is the first one I finished completely, and I've tried a lot of mods!"
