I've seen superscripts be written and occassionally some of these characters, but I've never figured out how. Is there a way of adding thise characters into our text in NWN when typing out speech or whatever for our characters?

I believe Alt + Number Pad combination works (although for super- and subscripts I've no idea).

No idea honestly. Disco?

No clue, I already have a hard time configuring the language input settings on my own PC...

Alt codes most likely. Times like this I wish they'd have done what NWN2 did, which is let you use BBCode in game.

Does unicode work?

e.g.,

00A3 = British Pound sign, etc?

Just checked in game. Alt code does indeed work.
http://fsymbols.com/alt-codes for a list.

Edit: Just checked unicode. It doesn't seem to work.

I just use the Language Tools toolbar. Alt+LeftShift+1-6 turns my layout to English, French, German, Russian, Spanish, and Swedish, respectively. :D

Yeah, I used to use that but Windows 7 isn't being friendly with multiple language support.

That's because Windows 7 in its infinite wisdom assumes everyone speaks American.

Alt codes are Ascii/EBCDIC I believe. Not Unicode. Unicode is what you get when you change language settings in windows.

On Windows it's Alt Codes, or you could connect a non U.S. English keyboard and it should change the keyboard layout for your native language.

If you're on a Mac, same thing with the keyboard, but if you want to use special characters just hold down the Option (Alt) key, and press the letter e for acute, Option + grave for grave, Options + n for tilde, Option + i for circumflex, option + u for umlaut, Option + c for cedilla, Option + Shift + comma for macron, Option + Shift + period for breve, etc, etc.

Here are two helpful charts, one with Alt Codes and one for OS X Option characters:
