[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 9512035, member: 29398"] A few notes on the recent conversation: --- I have it that some deities are omnisicent (or close enough) and others a bit less so; in any case, just because a deity knows something doesn't necessarily mean they're going to share that information freely, even if asked directly through [I]Commune[/I] or similar, if doing so runs against that deity's own interests. Flip side: if it's in a deity's interests that certain mortals receive some info or instructions they'll probably get such whether they ask for it or not. Deities have their own far-reaching goals, plans, and schemes; in which even the most powerful of mortals - if considered at all - are little more than pawns. --- Is there a DM out there who [I]doesn't[/I] want more-proactive players? :) --- Changing or overwriting rules after some forethought and consideration is often good. Doing so on a whim without forethought or consideration is almost always bad, if not right at the moment then later once the long-term effects emerge. [/QUOTE]
