Hmmm... okay. I'm inclined to disagree, but... eh, each to their own. :) So are you offering house ruled bards in your homebrew game? Or would that one use the standard class?

"The gnolls have already attacked," Cassient says in answer to Eva's pondering. "I believe the choice might well have been decided for us... I don't think we're going to be able to proceed without coming into further conflict with them sooner or later. So whether it's auspicious or not to do...

Hmmm. If you don't mind me asking, why no love for the 3.5 bard? The 3.0 bard I thought was lacking, but since the 3.5 revisions I've never had a problem with the class. What don't you like?

Woah. Sweet. :D

Seems to me like it's got a lot to do with the spirit in which it's done. If a person is possessed and unsalvageable, and doing bad things, it's not fundamentally an evil act to kill them - it's necessary. If a paladin killed the guy and said a prayer for the poor innocent who had to suffer -...

Ouch, harsh. :) It doesn't take much encouragement to convince me to play a bard, so that's one possibility. It's been a while since I've played a rogue, so that's looking like quite an appealing option too. I'd probably go for one or the other. Would you be planning on potentially taking...

Well that's all reassuring. I'm pretty deeply into my history, so it would have been frustrating to play an Arthurian-related game with a DM who thought that Mallory invented King Arthur. ;) Of course, I guess it likely won't matter that much since it seems like Kiss of Darkness is extending...

I guess it mostly just depends on the take your DM has on alignment. If they subscribe to a by-the-book moral absolutism then yes, I can see that a ruthless paladin who unquestioningly kills the bad guys that his superiors point him at might well be a possibility. To me, though, that doesn't...

Right, okay. So not-quite-Anglo-Saxon England then. It's all good. :D I'm interested though - what is your take on the Arthurian legends for the purposes of this game? Obviously they've been interpreted and reinterpreted all over the place. Was Arthur a fine, upstanding paragon of Christian...

OOC: Tyler, if you check my post #192 you'll find the results of the check around the keep - I jumped ahead to try to keep things moving smoothly.

Alister looks around him, heedless of the terrible heat, and quickly realises that anybody here is very unlikely still to be alive. Still, though, he's driven by an urge to know for certain regarding his father; he knows he could never press forward without knowing for sure, one way or the...

The strange woman smiles, nodding a gracious thanks, and sits down next to Minala against the stones of the Ministry. She pays no mind to her unsubtle reference to the Ministry guards, but merely bows her head slightly and introduces herself. "I am Imthael, by the way. It is a very great...

The stranger approaches Minala confidently, ignoring utterly the two Celestial Ministry guards that stand nearby. They give a glance at Minala as the woman approaches, as if to ask if she needs aid. The strange woman ignores them utterly, but returns Minala's nod of greeting and smiles. "Good...

Yay, starting. :) I'll watch eagerly for my opportunity to jump on in.

Squeee! This is the most exciting recruitment post I've seen in a long time. Chock-full of games that I want to jump on and eat up like candy. :lol: I think the one that I'm most excited by is the post-Arthurian game. I'm a huge fan of my Arthurian mythology, and Anglo-Saxon England...

"Indeed," Cassient ponders, his head cocked slightly as he thinks. "It seems we must draw them to us, rather than trying to chase after them."

Cassient smiles and nods with gratitude to Shorttooth. "Thank you friend, truly. In such a place like this, any kindness is at a premium. We must hurry after these gnolls, but I won't forget your hospitality." He grimaces slightly as he turns and realises that his summoning magic has waned...

Kudos. I expected many things from this game, but one of them absolutely was not a talking badger. You surprise and delight me :D

Cassient politely holds up a hand, declining to sample a grub. He is still somewhat distracted by the possible threat down the main tunnel, but he must admit to a fascination with the badger. As he speaks of his former master, something clicks into place in Cassient's mind and the whole thing...

Cassient, thoroughly amazed by this talking badger and its rather preposterous demeanour, has to stifle a laugh as he calls out in the language of the Upper Planes "<Enough, friend! Thankyou, but be still, this one is no enemy!>" As he does so he puts his palms out in a placating gesture, though...
