Pyior asks, "Can you tell me more about why you believe her to be weak and why you question her motives? Admittedly you have known her longer than any of us. What about her past behavior makes you doubt her?"

Pyior reddens, "My apologies, Shaddeck. I missed your name, and wrongly assumed that you were a junior member and that we would have to jump through a hoop or two to be granted an audience with you. Anyway, back to the matter at hand. We had hoped to convince you of the importance of returning...

Regarding the title of "Gardens of the Moon", I could be mistaken but doesn't one of the poems mention the "gardens of the moon"? I forget the exact context.

"Greetings. I am Pyior Silverleaf, student of Ceini Nevershimmer in the way of the staff. My companions and I have traveled far to speak to Shaddeck regarding the challenge he has set before Iriana Truthspeaker."

Finished off The Confusion and have headed right into The System of the World. It's a big commitment but I'm enjoying it throughly. My only complaint is the books get heavy and awkward to carry around with you for so long.

I was waiting for the series to be completed before picking up the first. Why did you love The Knight, if I may ask? No spoilers please. :)

Hate to tell you mmu1, but there are five total books out now so you missed one.

"You misunderstand, Ritsar. I trust in my tools, but it's well known that those of strong will can resist the urge to tell the truth. That's why I asked three questions. Of course, there is also the chance that I simply asked the wrong questions." To Danwyn: At first Pyior seems surprised or...

"As far as I can tell you speak the truth. So if my companions want to travel with you, I won't object." Then, almost under his breath, Pyior adds "But I still don't completely trust you."

A point was made obliquely earlier in the thread which I strongly agree with. I think many adventures play differently than they read. Almost all of the rating here seems to be mostly from reading.

ooc: waiting to hear confirmation from Rybear that Pyior didn't get a lying reaction on any of these 'No' answers. ;)

Has anyone run a campaign where the characters are billingual? I was thinking of running a M&M based in Tokyo and trying that. The billinguals could play billingual characters but I'd ask the monolinguals or people whose Japanese wasn't so good to stick to playing non-Japanese characters.

Congrats, Barsoomcore! :)

While it's certainly out of line to tell people what someone else told you in a private email, I don't see how it's wrong to quote something you told someone else.

OOC: Sorry for my delay in responding. Work has been really busy. Gideon I think we should run with this. It's an interesting dynamic and is more interesting than everyone being bestest buddies. Pyior should eventually come around. ;)

Pyior is silent for a while, wheels turning. Finally he speaks, watching closely for any tell-tale reactions: "We have already decided to visit this Heart of Darkness. But I must level with you -- I have reason to suspect you are a member of the Trythium sent to follow us and report on us -- or...

Another vote for Planescape: Torment.

Pyior stares at Ritsar, thoughts churning, and then gives a single nod seconds later. While he has clearly not warmed up, his curiosity gets the best of him and he asks, "What is this heart of darkness for which you are searching?"

Orcus, I've heard other companies say the same but you guys seem to say it the most -- "our schedule is full through 2006". I'm just curious about the business realities that drive having a lockstep schedule of releases and no margin to add anything else in. Is this basically completely spelled...

If they are making one attack action then moving away, you should be getting an attack of opportunity against them. That makes it not such a great strategy unless they have spring attack or some other such feat.
