[QUOTE="Voidrazor, post: 5439538, member: 41605"] Should be amusing. I know how Vellekhyr will respond. But rathing than saying, it should be more fun to play out. Its an odd place to go, but I could see V. being more keen to take a stab at reworking some of Constance's finery than stabbing some animal for rough furs. Welcome! You may want to have an instinct that will occasionally get Avros in trouble. Aside from the fun of creating plot complications from your character's personality quirks, it can also earn you Fate points. Good suggestion on the third belief. I keep this in mind as well in coming to a final decision on mine. BTW, I did decide on a replacement instinct, that follows my advice above, "When humans do not do as I wish, remind them, by deeds or words, that they are a race of children." I disagree about Avros needing to open a ranged weapon skill however. His B6 Agility should already make for a decent default, and he probably won't be able to afford a melee weapon, armor [b]and[/b] a missile weapon, not to mention relationships, reputation, traveling gear, and, err, clothes. I've been thinking about how Vellekhyr's belief, "The stars have shown that my companions are the key to keeping the conflict between houses limited to human lands. I must draw them into the intrigue while watching their backs." might play out. I'm not sure what the opportunities for intrigue will be at the keep before going to the caves. Something may emerge organically, or not. But if we were to find a vein of mithril (or some other mystical ore) in the caves, it could spur a lot of plotlines at once. Ferrantos could use it for his blade, if he could retain rights to the find while arranging to get the ore mined. It would be a source of prestige among the dwarves and tempt Aurvang's Greed.
