Message: <blockquote data-quote="Alzrius" data-source="post: 984451" data-attributes="member: 8461">Escalla herself is an excellent nod towards just how non-canon the novels were...indeed, in a few instances of how the author was making things up as he went along.SPOILERSPACEAt the end of the second book, Escalla's father, knowing that she and Jus and still travelling together, gives the Justicar a longevity potion. But at the end of the third book, Escalla reveals that anyone who hangs out around faeries doesn't age. This has a quandary...why would her father have given Jus a longevity potion to begin with if he knew his daughter's very presence would keep him young? It doesn't fit.Of course, we knew that when we saw the groups stats in that one issue of Dragon...oi, what they had to do just to make Escalla fit (since, as described in the novels, there is no such D&D creature per se). There was much head-shaking and tongue-clucking when I read that article, I tell you...</blockquote>
