Numo? Your referring to the other male party member I bet. I recall names were a bit random, but some jumped up more often. Then again i haven't played in 20 some years? Best part of utility spell members was that spells like sleep do work on bosses :P.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
