FYI, if you want to sum it up Isida, Ekilu will take the injured one onboard himself after he heals her, if he can.

And I see I've made the spirit look like a raving bloodthirsty lunitic, and that's not quite true, as he is a guide, and does offer good advice sometimes as well. He's just got a stormy disposition.

And on another side note, I've always pictured Ekilu to have an african accent (Mr Eko from Lost is a good example of what I mean, and is actualy the voice I picture)

Yup, he's pretty good at offering good advice sometimes. In fact, the percentage of time that his advice is completely on the money is surprisingly correlated with the percentage of encounters that should be slaughtered at the outset :D

He waited till he talked to them first at least... :p

And you obviously aren't familiar with the shaguin racial hatred by the Darfallen

Mwahaha! "Enhancing crew diplomacy by providing a credible alternative"? That's a classic! :lol:
 

I was thinking, if everyone else's hunk of the last post was like mine, we have a lot of options to explore in doing our kingmaking deed. I thought it might help Isida if we tell her what kind of role we'd like our respective characters to play here, in a perfect world.

Ideally, Lupaz would be kind of a part-time spymaster, keeping an eye on how the rest of the world reacts to the Kingdom's troubles while letting others handle the intrigues at the court proper. I'd also like him to otherwise follow the lead of the others like Nissa, but get a chance to make an otherwise impossible task merely difficult with his scouting, practical knowledge, and particularly curses. I do like my combats, too, but I'm okay with letting Trebuchet and Vaukriel and the others handle most of the actual whomping as long as I can be a meaningful edge in our interactions.

That's pretty much Lupaz's theme - I leave the struggle and planning itself to other people, at least on the larger scale, but weight the balance heavily in the way I like.

I barely got anything except a flamey thing that wants to kill everyone (and maybe the time elementals more? hopefully?) and then of course the fey, which we were already thinking about--guess you got more? Ideally, Nissa might want to see if she can get help from some of the many people she met as supplicants to her mother (actually, I think I'll go ask for that in the IC thread now--sorry for grilling for so many details, Isida :o). Her plan is to use winning words to show others that the time elementals are wrong and that the kingdom cannot be ruled by their tyrannical order and fate. She would like to be a diplomat, and she will also reluctantly accept a leadership role among the group in a rebellion, as she is linked so intrinsically to the classic elements to earn respect from even many of the elementals (according to the SBLOCK anyways :D). In general, her Cha-based and Int-based skills are fairly high for somebody who has 3 LA, and she'd like to get the most out of things like Bluff, Diplomacy, and Knowledge, as these are the routes to peace and prosperity, in her mind. Also, she still wants to make her mother proud some day, and so she continues to struggle with divinations--maybe some day, her magic will actually be able to make a difference... :)
