However, the big RS*E adventures that are fairly common could be dealt with by the extremely competent** uber-NPCs far more easily than the PCs.Also, some people will simply dislike the way Chosen are portrayed in the novels, even if there is always an excuse for the Chosen to be away. The novels are part of the world, more so because they're canon. If killing Mystra makes just the novels better, I'm all for it. The complaints about Mary Sue characters in novels are legion, and IMO valid.*Shaken, not shattered. Shattering only takes place once an edition.**Their "novel" stats. They really are Mary Sues.</blockquote>
