[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5382197, member: 19675"] She did have a pair of hand X-bows as well, equipped with bolts that injected a sleep poison. This enabled her to restrain her targets and question them about their secrets, sucking them dry of arcane knowledge. Spiderlike, yes? And a kusarigama could do likewise with a spiked ball at it's tip. A further note on the kusarigama: the fanciest one I've seen had a spike on each end of the shaft from which the Kama blade emerged, making it look like a pointy lowercase "r". Her motives in the original form were simple: she was a combo of Indiana Jones and a cat burglar. She wanted to acquire the greatest collection OS spells, and didn't much care whether the tomes she found them in were treasure or still in active use... She figured 2 things: [LIST=1] [*]The Underdark, while home to many unusual magics, was sparsely populated- the good stuff would be harder to find [*]She would need to be a powerful spellcaster herself, focused on anti-spellcaster tactics [/LIST] Eventually, she fell in with a group of powerful adventurers, at least in part to improve her odds of success. Over time, she fell in love with the party's Ftr/Illusionist/Assassin and gave up her "mission." She did NOT, however, give up on adventuring. Given her skill-set, she took her beloved's place within the party, while he concentrated on building his personal guild and network. [/QUOTE]
