Here's the only character list I could find for Ishar 1 if anyone is interested http://www.cpc-power.com/aitpast/index.php?page=jeu&id=94 It's in french but it still does the job.

Does anyone know where I can find a list like this for Ishar 2 or 3?

I found a list of the characters available in Ishar II. It is in french, bien sûr.
You should be able to find it here :
http://www.cdos-abandonware.com/Ishar2/Heros/Heros.html

I noticed that a couple of them have their name or their portrait mixed up.
Most of them are also present in Ishar III, which also includes many new recruitable characters.

(I know it's a old trade here but it's a good place to keep informations)
The last link (Ishar I section on www.cpc-power.com) unfortunately disappeared.


Unless I am mistaken, it is possible to discover 33 playable characters with Ishar I. This includes special characters.
According to the second link given by BoogerNZ (on www.cdos-abandonware.com) it is possible to deduce that in the second episode, Ishar II, we can to play 17 new characters, so in total with the old from Ishar I : 50.


In reality, I ask the community if anyone know a link/ref to see the different spells of each character (among those able to use magic of course). Thanks by advance :)
