First off happy New Year to everyone and I am well aware that I said I would be off till mid-January but I finished this little project and thought I would share it. Now this is only the basics to allow GM's to convert BG & TOSC to pen & paper rpg. You will have to create the quests and encounters yourself but this should help with some of the aspects that you will need.
OK this is part conversion, part homebrew and part mash-up so forgive me now onwards to the meat of this project. And yes I am well aware I already posted some of this info in another thread but this tidies it up and adds some more flavour to it.

Most of the magic items in pathfinder terms.
Now some of the magic items will also be updated and if anyone else wants to jump in and help with them it would be appreciated. First the "Rings of Princes" now this was just a +1 ring of protection in BG1+2 but in NWN2 it was a +2 that gave an additional +1 vs undead. Since there are reportedly 7 of them that they would each be moderately similar but unique, with the one above called the "White Prince" which is made of white marble and glows a gentle white light when around undead, it’s a ring of protection +2 which becomes +3 vs undead. Ok the second "Ring of Princes" is now called "Dark Prince" made of black basalt it seems to shun the light. This Ring of Protection +2 also give a +2 bonus to saves against necromantic spells and effects. Ring three is the “Gryphon Prince” that is a solid gold signet ring with a sapphire Gryphon inlaid, ring of protection +2 that gives a +2 bonus on Reflex saves and the ability to boost their Charisma by 4 points for 10minitues once a day.
Ring four is the “Dragon Prince” is made of red marble with a rampant Dragon inlaid in it, a ring of protection +2 that grants a +4 bonus on will saves vs fear and Fire resist 2. Ring five is the “Serpent Prince” a green jade ring in the shape of a snake, a ring of protection +2 that grants a +2 on saves vs poison and grants Deceitful as a bonus feat. The sixth ring is the “Fey Prince” a rainbow coloured band, a ring of protection +2 that gives a +2 bonus to your save DC’s vs Enchantment spells and allows you to cast Ghost Sound 1day. Now the seventh ring is the “Unicorn Ring” a band of the purest silver, works as a ring of protection +2 that grants a +2 on saves vs disease and poison and the ability to cast Stabilize 1day.

So what is the intent? Just a compilation? If so it looks good.
Are you looking to mod the campaign, or have a segregated adventure that runs corralary to the story? If so, I would include a bit of info about major factions, NPCs, and rumors as well as details about some of the notable regions and dungeons.
More knowledge of your intent and the timing of this setting is crucial. In the FR this story follows after the Time of Troubles, but is several decades (maybe a century) before the current setting. It may not seem like a big deal, but a lot has changed, and there are regional based supplement materials that are a bit time sensitive.
