Rayn who failed to subdue a eight year old and was forced to put him down... is he seriously inept or are you telling me that the victims of this... disease suddenly gain inhuman strenght and endurance?  In relation to my rabies theory, was he bit by Mart during the scuffle?  Because if I am right about this, considering there is always some time before infection and the onset of such diseases, it puts in perspective the disparition of Lt Rayn's patrol.  If a eight year old becomes dangerous after being infected, imagine a trained warrior...Kendrick turns away and smiles dreamily at the thought of confronting such an enemy.      [sblock]<img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />That's all I have to say.[/sblock][sblock=Nature skill]If you examined my PC sheet in the past, you may notice that Kendrick used to be trained in Dungeoneering and now is trained in Nature.  That is because originally I wanted to stay away from typical ranger stereotype and falsely believed the Dungoneering skill to be more of a... well, I am not entirely sure what I expected, but 'Nature skill for cave-dweller' wasn't it!  When I recently actually looked at the skill, the first thing I saw was 'Forage'.  Forage!  Kendrick is not a damn mole.  Ranger have either Nature or Dungeoneering.  I don't see Kendrick as a happy camper, so to speak, but he is even less of a spelunker!  Being ex-military, I decided it was better that he was someone who knew much more than he cared to about wilderness expeditions (and is sick of it) than about hitting his head on a stalagmite.This longwinded explanation is due to the fact that it now seems nature will be much more useful for this adventure than dungoneering...  this change wasn't powergaming, is my point.  [/sblock]</blockquote>
