That's pretty much what I came up with...We're such a small community that we're literally not making an impact on the wider world yet maybe? I'm not sure about historically accurate, but I dig on "plausible" and "makes sense." Normally I'd be easier with handwaving, but since the characters...

I broke it apart then began working on the beginning, but didn't finish. I put in "harvestables" because not everything people grow is a food product, and I really had no idea other than what you'd put in for the aunt managing the farm. Since there was only one person working the plot I assumed...

You're welcome.

Of course not, that's why I posted it the way I did. You could probably make it even "shorter" by breaking the thing into two parts. The first part would be Enko's background information and the other would be the Ceryan bits. You might get away with a break of some sort in the middle of the...

I don't think so. I really wasn't kidding when I said that it was likely everyone was a cousin of a sort to everyone else. It really shouldn't be a problem unless everyone makes a habit of it and people don't ply those traveling merchants with lots of booze when they come to town (and if nine...

Yes, you could break apart the dialogue. There's an awful lot of conversation in there that should be broken out into its own paragraphs every time a new speaker says something. That should break apart a lot of your larger paragraphs right there, and restructuring some of the others to collect...

Janis suddenly smiles as she sees the transformed wolf come within the grasp of her necromancy. Calling upon the dark words of Mabar and Winter itself, Janis sings out the dire warnings of decay into the clearing. The wounds that the party's enemies have already taken itch as if the magic calls...

Understanding history, in any iteration, aids in understanding the ourselves. When I design a character for a game it thrives best when I understand the ground that it walks on and why the people around it are the way they are. Since in this game it's impossible to refer to history or a document...

That's what I was thinking - there's so few people and so few industries (and what industry you'd have would be very labor intensive) that everyone would have to be pretty used to chipping in and helping "just because," especially with some of the critical industries like farming. Farming should...

I was under the impression that we had no coin and that everything of any real importance was done more or less communally rather than a strict system of barter that would lend itself to interest. Since we have no contact with other people, it would seem that such a strict system would be out of...

So...we have coin and interest and debts and such? I was thinking that the town was really somewhere in the early bronze age? Am I wrong?

Besides, he probably makes everyones' cars and domestic appliances...(sorry, Flintstones reference, couldn't be helped)

Sure thing, I figured as much - which is why I wanted as an option rather than a "this is what I really want my character to do." Who knows what he'll want to do after the game starts? I actually was thinking about that as I finally got to sleep last night. I don't see Antiklites as being...

Alright, here is my submission so far. I hope I'm understanding the whole spirit mark-to-spirit talker relationship thing you've got going on with Antiklites. I tried to capture a bit of that whole greek feeling you seem to be working with in the naming structure. I thought one of the ways...

I think that, after looking at the House Rules, I'm going to be making a Wizard with an eye toward stonesmithing/brickmasonry/architecture. Maybe some nephew of Phaidros?

I might be interested, so I'm posting here to subscribe and give a heads up but I've got very few clues as to what exactly I'd do with that abbreviated list of classes. Maybe a ranger or a bard? Hrm. Looking forward to your docs to look at.

"Archeology, Major? Is there money in that, or just opportunity for the kidnappers? Any chance of the kidnappers having off-world transport, or will the Befhr be loitering for interdiction while we're on op? Will we have air support for this? Speeders, maybe? I hear that Tattoine is pretty...

To be fair, if Spore were coming out exclusively on a console it would very likely be my most expensive game purchase ever very quickly. Regardless of any other factor other than "putting food on the table." :D

Whether you care about that top-end experience is another matter entirely. But a console isn't the "top-end experience" after its release on approximately the same sort of schedule you'd expect for generational graphics. It's simply the only experience that console owners have. I like PS2 games...

I guess I'm just failing to see where new PC games are always needing the absolute fastest video card. They'll SAY that a lot of times, but I honestly buying a "last years model" card usually cuts it just fine if you're willing to not put all your sliders up to the max and play on something that...
