that's not really a strictly war thing, as Romeo and Juliet was about 12 or 13 year olds, I think. (Juliet was supposed to be a bit young for marriage, and the marrying age at that time period was quite low.)

I'm not saying kids don't get killed (even murdered) outside of war, just that kids do get brutally killed in war.

Your background is fantastic, and I've no problem with the brutal things going on there, the only problem is that the Cellsori don't keep slaves, as a rule (sorry, I'm not going to budge on that. War is hell and horrendous things can happen away from commanders, but Cellsor has an LG king).

Start time:

You're all ready? You're going to be investigating this house?

Well, Crothian's on vacation... :( anyone know when he comes back?

OK. We're beginning play at a merchant's house in the Merchants District, which the thieves have scouted out and are now attempting to rob. I know what the do-gooders and Berwan are doing there. How about the kobolds and goblin? And Darkness, where does your character fit in?

Just a few questions for you guys to chew over...
 

Hmmm, no slaves . . . how about, my mother was given the choice of either being let loose in the wilderness, or working as a servant for minimal pay? Obviously, she chose to work, as a servant, as she was sensable enough to value life over honor, but she died from a disease soon after, and Serei was put into the care of a negligent wife of a soldier. That work?

And the 20 question thing . . .
