[QUOTE="Naoki00_, post: 5618597, member: 99243"] to Wicht: the challenge is in how to do what we set out to do without the guys that CAN beat us, no combat yet, just mental challenges. and to 3catcircus: no no, they didn't get them through not playing, I made this character years ago. she started as a level 1 human with the paragon template (this is because again, child from Ao himself)..she got the rest over the 8 years of playing in games where she appeared as the villain, gaining power as she went. also personally we're not fans of that low a level campaigns, they can be fun still..but honestly I find they progress in a "I'm so weak that 2 hits from a D6 weapon and I die" manner in our group...we're paranoid and know just how bad things can be in the DnD world (it doesn't bother us too much with certain DM's though of course, because we know they won't be a d***.) now on to Oryan77: I am sorry if I made it seem that way, I'm not really trying to run myself in circles. yes the game IS a sandbox, if we wanted to do something different then what we just were, we could...the difference is we already know the end of the story, we know what we are going to do to get there, but we don't know HOW we're going to do that, or if we're going to just go straight for the end or do a bunch of stuff for fun... really when I think about it I can explain it fine, but putting into words or type in this case is a bit difficult...our script isn't so much set because we have no timeline for anything we do or an order other then things that would HAVE to be in order...however we've all had the character we do for years, and what they can do is very well established and set, if something could effect them or not, we all know it. well we'd be more alright with it if in the universe the encounters and types of challenged (combat or higher beings) we were in were possible this early, it would be like encountering a bunch of celestial's just walking around in lolths place and enjoying the scenery, it wouldn't make sense in that world based on the worlds canon.
