[QUOTE="SSquirrel, post: 4896236, member: 5202"] Glad to see that if they come up with good reasons to keep them around that you won't still be against it. I had to wonder there for a bit KM :) I could see someone not being pure evil and being a Templar. They could be seeking revenge and on the inside is the best route for them. They may have to do some things they find repellent, but in their mind it is serving the greater good to achieve their goals. They could just be doing it b/c it's the only way for them to survive. Maybe it eats them up at night and they try and keep their own goals, but it gets so hard when so many around you are cruel and vicious. Henry>I so love that mental picture as well, sounds pretty darn cool to me. 4E and limitations>See I don't choose to look at the options I don't have from 3E and see limitations, I look at the things I can do now or even just the things that are much easier to do now and go with that. I have a friend that always has the exact character in her head that she wanst to play. Many times she rolls poorly and then sulks b/c she doesn't have the stats to support her idea. Most of the time I either have a few possibilities in mind or nothing and just start rolling stats. An idea presents itself and as I start picking things like skills and gear a history and personality starts forming itself. It may be that since I'm already used to filling in on what is needed and being a bit more easy going about my characters that I'm not bothered by some of the 4E simplifications. Or maybe I'm just getting old :) [/QUOTE]
