Do I pick:A) a big strong fighter who can hold his own in battleor B) an angst ridden half orc bard who will hang around telling stories while the rest of us get hacked up, and then will expect a share of the loot. He's not particularly talented, and seems fairly incapable of talking his way out of tight spots. Of course all of those special forces teams in Afghanistan all made sure they had a ugly, stupid, amateur entertainer with them to help with their productivity. You want to talk about meta game knowledge? That comes when you have a  bunch of people forming a band of adventurers which is willing to carry around deadwood which only serves to cause more danger. A rational adventurer would send said deadwood merrily on his way to tell more stories and not risk getting killed. Buzzard</blockquote>
