Personally I would have been really agrivated if I were Big's player, but I can't help playing goody two shoes types, so my version of Big definitelly would have lowered his axe. 'Cutscene' posts that make a PC watch as bad, irreversible things happen always bother me. However, I can understand your reasoning for doing it that way.
If you need ever need an alt I'd be interesded to try this... I'd probably be a sort of good character, who would try to ease the suffering of those around him. Course he'd probably frequently get frustrated with his impotence.
This can be a frustrating game, I guess

You're welcome to make an alternate, just in case we need an extra character. Any character who could be fitted into Cel Candon would be apropriate as either a member of the Enclave, a prisoner, a pet, a slave or a blood sacrifice. The Elves and Duergar of this enclave are not the nicest of people, but probably a lot less evil than the demons.
Autumn said:Hi y'all.
Thanks so much for your patience. I'm a lot more on top of things now, and I'd love to jump back into the game. I see that you've kept Ysande and Kaj around - thanks- and that they haven't met a grisly stirge-related death just yet. So hopefully you're happy for me to pick them back up?
I'm working on updating my status records at the moment - just a quick questiong regarding that. The darkness that filled the corridor as the Stirges attacked - was that a use of Kaj's Darkness ability? Or some kind of trap he tripped? Also, does the place's anti-demon ward have a statistical effect on Kaj? Or just creeps him out?
Hi, welcome back. Well, Kaj is in a bit of a tough spot, but Ysande is looking pretty safe. It's been fun to NPC them, but you're the only one who can do them justice.

The Darkness effect wasn't Kaj, but if it was a trap, the work of an enemy spellcaster or a Superstirge-SLA, you're just going to have to guess. The anti-demon ward does hurt him, though he's somewhat protected from the worst effects by Mokninchel's spell, and Ysande fears thet it will get gradually worse the further down you go and the longer time you spend in Cel Candon. Right now it much like a migraine headache, fatigueing him and giving him a -1 on skill checks.

And about the cut scene it was unfortunate that the girl threw herself on the axe but the scene had to end quickly otherwise it would have begun jarring with what was currently happening. Either way some mind slave throwing herself on Big's axe sucks but doesn't particularly bother him other then the mess of cleaning it up.
Yeah, I figured Big wouldn't really mind that much considering his background. I probably wouldn't have done that to a character like William or Ysande. But still it's not like it was Big's fault, his evil act. Even so, I guess it was frustrating that I took away your free choice.
Dire Lemming said:Wow, didn't realize until now. You've actually got two good characters already.
Of course, what I meant was that it would have bothered me if Big were my character. Great avatar BTW.
Two evil, two neutral and two good, it's like they had to fill some alignment-quota

Oh, and thanks, But Bloosquig's is cooler
