[QUOTE="Matthan, post: 7166200, member: 20005"] I read Shayuri's post above mine and wanted to add another note. Husam has never traveled outside of Tajar in any serious way (I'm sure he did some patrols around the city) and has never had his worldview shaken. He believes in the Sheikh and his justice. He believes the best in people and that people can change, but he's also very rigid in his view of right and wrong. When someone steps over that line, he has no hesitation or belief in a grey area. I'm looking for that to develop and for Husam to have to learn nuance (I'm hopeful that the rogues may play a part in that). I'm also interested to see if Husam will start to push against the social structure as he observes Akilah. He has always served the Sheikh and trusted him fully, but he has never really traveled with or seen the results of decisions. I'm not rooting for Akilah to fail, but everyone makes mistakes. I'm excited to see what happens if/when Husam loses faith in the perfection of the person he's been ordered to follow. All that is to say that I'm invested in the roleplaying side as well. I'm happy to smash stuff too, but I'm enjoying the game. I'm just taking it a scene at a time. [/QUOTE]
