NeverWinter Nights 1 uses a series of pictures to create portraits. During character creation, you can choose a portrait to represent him (or her). You can use the portraits included in the original game, expansions or a variety of user created content.

Using Portraits[]

Portraits can help to bring a little more to a character. If you use a portrait that closely matches your character's appearance you can use the picture to refer to when making comments about him. You can also use a symbol to reflect an aspect of your character instead of an actual 'photograph'.

Choosing a Portrait[]

Creating a character and choosing a portrait should go hand in hand. It is easy to let the choice of portrait change your character's personality to 'fit' but with careful consideration this can be avoided. Some players rely on your character's portrait while roleplaying with you so it is important to select something that reflects your character. There are many portraits to choose from and many servers have their own portrait packs to allow you even greater flexibility. Sometimes you may find a server that encourages players to create their own and allow others to download them so everyone can 'see' what their characters 'look like'. You can also make portraits that have a mixture of a portrait picture and a symbol (e.g. a man standing in front of his deity's banner).

Problems with Portraits[]

There are a few things to consider when choosing to use additional portraits. Firstly, unless the other players have your portrait they will only see the default portrait instead of your own. The portrait you choose may have been used in another portrait pack so just because the picture is in another pack, if the filename has been changed it will not show up correctly.
