The way to go with a 2PC party is fighter/priest and mage/priest, so they can War Bless and heal themselves without the other character, and both have powerful attacks. You don't want any dead weight in a small party.

Yes, FZ, Sylvain is rather far away from you. And you wouldn't be able to enter the thicket anyway, because of the ward, unless Garath can see/walk through it.

I'll come into contact with everyone else in due time.

War Blessing at level 3 or higher will make a singleton virtually invincible.

OOC: Of course he would know Sylvain - they're both important men from the same town.

There are far more cutscenes than that in BoA scenarios - definitely another one in RoR.

About making text without a character:

Use an invisible stationary character. For more text on the same line, put the second character directly SE a few spaces in the editor. For more text on the next line, experiment and place the character appropriately in the SE region.

That's what I was implying - experience penalties don't mean much for singletons.

In a quiet thicket in the woods, Selger's priest rocked back and forth silently, praying furiously to Hiram. He had refused to go along with the Corps lieutenant who had been in Selger. Sylvain knew that Hiram would protect him, and that he only needed to regain his strength before he would exact his revenge on the demons and send them straight back to Hell.

But he could not sleep. Oh, no. Sleep was too dangerous in this neck of the woods. He had gone six days without more than ten minutes of sleep. Now he waited, setting his broken bones and healing them slowly. Soon, maybe in a couple days, he could start to ward off the entrance to the thicket from demons and get some rest. Soon, but not now.

Still furiously rocking back and forth, he cried out in agony. He felt Mount Thunder, and he felt the wretched presence of demons close to the temple. He burned with anger, and the fury of Hiram fused with his. He would need no sleep tonight, he thought. How could he sleep when the holiest of places was being ruined, defiled? He hefted his mace, giving it a swing or two. Immediately, Sylvain put it down. His broken arm and wrist were still not completely healed. Another day, then.

I use a Slith Divinely Touched Fast on Feet singleton priest/warrior. He was level 17 by the end of VoDT, so experience penalties don't matter much.

Why?

So you or other people can play them without registering?

There's no point, it's too much work, and a lot of the stuff can't be translated to Avernumscript.

It's early, so I'm only thinking in terms of brute force, but you can check for a person standing on each space of the rectangle. Is there a combat block involved? Should there be?

I agree with Vent. The pollution is not the baddie. During the course of the scenario, I found myself sighing angrily at Vinnia and the politics of the school, not at the pollution, which is just the mess they left behind because of it all.

Well, since the game is already released, I don't think the NDA has much use for you.
