[QUOTE="shilsen, post: 3221311, member: 198"] :D Thankee kindly. I'd been waiting 2 years and 45 sessions for that moment, and it was worth it. The entire thing began when AviLazar gave me Gareth's background, where he mentioned the following: My initial reaction was to nix the whole bit with Tira Miron appearing, since that didn't fit the "nebulous contact with deities" aspect of Eberron I like. But instead I just told Avi, "You know that Gareth might have imagined that. After all, nobody gets to actually be visited by Tira Miron, and paladins can't normally pass their powers on to another. Maybe he just got hit in the head, and memory is complicated." His response was, "That's okay. Gareth's going to believe that's what he saw. As long as he's got a paladin's powers, people can't really tell him that wasn't the truth, can they?" And then a little bulb went off in my head and I went back to my place and cackled to myself for a bit :] I was dropping little hints consistently, as you and the players/PCs picked up, about the sword having some connection to a fiend, and also about something trying to corrupt Gareth via the dreams (couldn't directly control him, because of his Exorcist abilities), but nobody saw the paladinhood angle coming, because they had no reason to. Maybe they would have, if more time had passed, but the PCs finding the Key (which Zathara had [b]not[/b] planned on, since even he didn't know it was on the island) and planning to take it to the Gatekeepers made Zathara show his hand much sooner than he had planned. My earnest sympathies to whoever you use that on. Really ;) [/QUOTE]
