@Josh - For this called shot thing, can I assume that my Eldritch Blast and my fire powers can punch through most non-magical cloth and leather armour (and possibly some weakly enchanted ones, maybe for stronger enchantments, some kind of "hardness" system to break the enchantments, since my eldritch blasts are purely magical?), especially since I blew a hole in that guard on the roof? I'll have to figure out some way to apply the called shots to metal armour (maybe take an extra penalty to aim for joints?), but we can figure things out later if need be. I'm thinking maybe some of my daily fire powers might be able to melt through the metal, but probably not my weaker ones...
@Ian - Hey, who's to say I don't want a bunch of lowlife thieves swearing fealty to me? Wait, that actually sounds horrible...nevermind...
