I tend to make a character that opposes that, i.e. a chaotic mage.  Stereotypes suck.(your friendly neighborhood Discordian engineer (yes, I'm serious (well, within reason (but I definatly like parenthetical referances (don't I?)))) now returns your thread to your regularly scheduled topic)</blockquote>
