Quayle Baldur's Gate 1
Quayle Location
Quayle is a Baldur's Gate companion in BioWare's cRPG of 1998, Baldur's Gate 1. Quayle is found at the entrance to Baldur's Gate city on the Wyrm's Crossing (not in the city but on the bridge map, just outside it).
Quayle is one of the most annoying characters in the game.
As an Illusionist with Opposition School of Necromancy, Quayle may not cast Chill Touch, Larloch's Minor Drain, Horror, Ghoul Touch, Skull Trap, Vampiric Touch, Spirit Armor.
However, he is the best at casting Blindness.
Ah my loutish friends, that is my direction too. Fate has crossed our paths and we could all benefit by traveling together. It will be the classic pairing of you, the stalwart adventurers, and I, the intelligent one. How could you refuse?

Quayle Biography
When asked about his past, QUAYLE talks for a good hour about his worship of Baravar Cloakshadow, how he is well on his way to mastering sorcery, and just generally how incredibly smart he is compared to everyone else in the party. He was apparently encouraged to strike out on his own as soon as he came of age because, as he claims, he was simply too gifted to remain in that stifling environment. You get the feeling, however, that no one was terribly broken up over his leaving. He says that he apprenticed in the arts of magic and the worship of Baravar under a gnome named Gifos, though it was not long before this teacher also sent him on his way. Since then, Quayle has wandered the Sword Coast looking for people who were willing to accept his "his wisdom and instruction." It has likely been a long walk.
Gnome versus Gnome: Tiax and Quayle are both insufferable, but I'd say Quayle takes the cake.
Quayle is just so annoying and insipid:
And so Tiax snaps:
Thus, the two diminutives with the biggest egos ever seen on the Infinity Engine, go medieval on each other. It's very funny to watch this after hearing their carry-on for so long.
