[QUOTE="Myth and Legend, post: 5185599, member: 82679"] *nods* Also, the modifier... Umm yeah i haven't updated my skills in the RG i guess. 4 at lvl 1 + 3 from lvl 2, 3 and 4 and +4 INT modifier = 11. Hmm, I'll edit the correct stats accordingly. There is no Knowledge: Military, otherwise i'd have taken it and would have had Lora get that +11 modifier to it. I have been accused in metagaming in the past, I simply view this as flavor. If i hadn't told you quys where the quote was from i [I]highly[/I] doubt you'd have guessed it. Again, as i have said before (but you haven't read every single post in the multiple threads of this year-long campaign for sure) - Lora doesn't have experience, she has just read books. It so happens that her tutor had various books on warfare apart from the arcane stuff. Knowledge: Nobility and Royalty and Knowledge: History both represent this. Reading battle reports for the combat during the Hundred Years War today IRL would count as researching history, no? Yet if you really liked reading these things, and suddenly ended up in medieval times, you could use that knowledge to your advantage, if you are smart enough. The bows and fantasy - I like fantasy, I just don't like changing the laws of physics and when something backfires to just say "but it's fantasy!". Of course I'm not expecting everyone who posts here to have knowledge on medieval warfare and the like, hence i just point stuff out OOC or in Lora's thoughts, and you guys can use it as you will. For example, when she was looking at Claude leering over the stream, she though how if he got his bow wet it'd be unusable. I'm not expecting FM to know or think about this, but since Claude has the experience, he decided to use it his post later on and say he was careful not to get the weapon wet.
