[QUOTE="Nyeshet, post: 4621337, member: 18363"] Personally I feel a little sorry for Haley. [spoiler]Recall that one of the main reasons she is stealing so much is to pay the ransom to free her father - the former Guild leader - who was betrayed and imprisoned due to the current (rather frosty) Guilder leader. [/spoiler] Thus, by losing half of her gained wealth the chances of her success are rather greatly delayed - all to the benefit of the current Guild Leader whom she almost killed (and likely still wants to kill). Also, as I recall, most of the wealth she has gained she has also lost - such as at the inn fire when they were captured by Miko. Does half of the lost wealth also count towards this penalty payment? If so, she could lose everything - or nearly so - that she has saved up since leaving the Guild. As for Celia, I'm beginning to think that she is meant to replace Miko - a sort of stereotypical irritating player who goes out of their to have their character do things in a different way - even if it is at the expense of the rest of the party. Miko was a Paladin so strict in her lawful ways and so prone to misunderstanding that she eventually fell. Celia is a pacifist so strict in her non-aggressive ways that she'll even go behind other player's backs to arrange for deals that work against other PCs or perhaps even the party. Granted, from her point of view she is in the right - just as Miko was certain that from her own point of view she was in the right. It will be interesting to see how this works out. Personally, I'm hoping Celia will eventually turn aside from pacifism, but considering the prior example of Miko, I'm guessing she will not. [/QUOTE]
