Sorry about the glitch in posting over the last two days. A final hiccup in getting my assignment sent... But it's done now, and I've posted to the game, so things can get moving again

Hey no big deal. I'm just glad you keep coming back!

Oh yeah, you're stuck with me

Great I wouldn't have it any other way...

Darn I've tried to get to the OOC thread twice now. Anyhow, I saw the chance for a little woman’s talk so I took it. Brystasia wasn't really trying to be rude, but I was rather curious...

Anyhow, after Brystasia last posts I could see how you would have a hard time as seeing her as naive, me too for that matter, so if it's an issue I'm more than willing to remove it, but I know allot of people who are good at giving advance but don’t have a clue of there own. Anyhow, I like the way they interact so I would rather make it clear that Brystasia has no real interest in stealing Ged and actually would be interested in seeing the two hook up. (Match maker in all.)

Anyhow let me know about the naive weakness.

It never even occurred to me that she was trying to be rude, it just came across as natural curiosity. I do think Brystasia lacks some of the normal social restraints, but given both her good intentions and her very high Charisma, people tend to look on it as it is: innocence.

Actually, I don't have a problem seeing her as naive at all. All she's show so far is a fair understanding of how romantic relationships work, something that I'd guess nymphs have an instinctive idea of. I think her naivety is more likely to show as giving people the benefit of the doubt when they don't really deserve it. And, as you say, I think she's much less likely to perceive problems in her own relationships than those of others. I think she's very astute in spotting when two people are attracted to each other, but almost entirely oblivious when someone is attracted to her. Which is why her fellow Aymarans have been quite firm in turning away her suitors...

You know I couldn't have said that better myself even if I had tried... Truly a very fitting and perfect assessment of her.

I agree with this for the most part, but nymphs have never been know for having stable romantic relationships

I couldn't agree more with this if I tried. Everyone is attracted to her, but she probably sees it simply as something to just being friendly... I can so see her going for the wrong type of man... The one with the roguish charm who in all honestly might not have her or anyone's best interest at heart. (Maybe a BEG type...)

I'm glad we're on the same page when it comes to Brystasia I like to have a good idea of my players' PCs, so I can better fit the game to their own world-view. It's easier to motivate the characters if you can get into their heads a little.

Oh, I never said anything about them being stable relationships...

That's what my own perception of the character is. She tries to see the best in everyone, to the extent of often ignoring important character flaws. As for her potentially falling for BBEGs...
