But dang if that's not a lot of text to wade through – Especially for a more casual gamer!Normally I avoid cards with tabletop roleplaying – because I've found it focuses attention on game mechanisms rather than roleplaying and creative thinking – but you're right that off-loading magic items & gear to cards might be better. I think I have some of those old Paizo treasure cards somewhere, so that might help.Yeah, back when we played AD&D he was always coming up with his own crazy maneuvers or wanting to implement a move he learned in a fencing class. The Battle Master was made for my friend.On one page? That's impressive! It makes sense for low-level characters though.I'll be chatting with them in a week or so, and I know she used to write fantasy novels, so I may get a better feel of what sort of characters she connects with.I am leaning toward something like a simplified monster-style NPC.Where we left off in the campaign, the next plot threads would probably revolve around two things, from our very first gamings sessions together & our very last gaming session together...Graughlothor, the Supreme Dragon (alleged first of dragonkind, greatest of iron dragons) may be dying/corrupted/returning. Kiryana once summoned him to wipe out a demon horde while she "time traveled" to the past. Basically, it was like the whole Assassin's Creed premise of ancestral memories before those games came out. Kiryana is missing her shadow, which she sacrificed in a deal with an erinyes & hamatula (barbed devil) in order to free a lantern archon they'd deceived. The lantern archon was a guide in her military force. We never precisely answered what lacking a shadow means in the game, but described it as a gnawing sort of emptiness and dread. So Kiryana being on a quest to regain her shadow makes sense.Potential characters his girlfriend might play could be...<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Kiryana shadow! She might like being able to instigate stuff, make complications for his PC, and getting able to create mischief without needing to know too many rules. Then again, it's less of a distinct character. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The erinyes! Maybe the erinyes turned renegade against her infernal master and is willing to help Kiryana because it helps herself too.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The lantern archon! Perhaps in a more evolved angelic form as a friendly guide/protector spirit. These are AD&D Planescape archons, not the 4e chaotic evil elemental archons.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A member of Kiryana's army with a secret agenda involving Graughlothor the Supreme Dragon.</li> </ul></blockquote>
