Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

“It will amplify. We should be able to hear you. May. . . we contact you?”

Eve nods. “Yes. I’ve never done that. Nobody’s. . . ever wanted to contact me before.”

That got me all choked up...=) Well played KC, and wonderfully told PC

What wasn't Eve understanding with the "I don't get it" quote? Trust, gods, faith, other?

Similarly, when she "got it", what about the description of the DoD's earlier encounter with the Elder Brain twigged her understanding?

Welcome out of the lurker closet, Chalistria! Glad to have you aboard.

The "don't get it" refers to Eve's difficulty with the concept of a benign, let alone a beloved, deity, and with the concept of voluntary love and service to such a thing. Let's face it, Eve's experience with religion to this point has been Imbindarla and Y'Guult. Served from fear, or desire for power but not fun folks to hang with.

The "got it" refers to Eve grasping that brain is talking about sentience and higher cognition. She doesn't get religion, but she does understand brain function.

Thanks to everyone who's said they're enjoying Eve. I'm having lots of fun with her. She's changed a lot in the year I've been playing her, but she's still got places to grow. That's a good sign in a character.

Is it just my imagination, or did the group change from "it" to "he" when referring to the Elder Brain after it/he was named?

So how much of that year does it take to get to the "Eve and Malachite, sitting in a tree" bit? I can't wait

Don't hold your breath. It's not really a match made in heaven.

If you mean "Will we see Priggle ripped limb from limb by creatures made out of solid thought," then the answer is an unqualified yes.

It's best to be clear about these things.

I can see it now... Post Fight:

Velendo: "Now, anybody down? Anybody need immediate healing before they bleed out pathetically?""

Malachite: "Don't think so... Not that I... Notice..."

All: "Right, let's go then..." (Exeunt Stage Up)

Priggle:"oh... the... <gasp>... Irony... <gurgle>... <coff>..."

Does that mean they hook up while you're in the lower planes?

 

[Bryon_Soulweaver]

Nice, I like it, never read it before because I thought is was boring. Sorry for the insult but, ITS FRICKEN COOL!!!

I like the characters Mao, Malachite, and the druid; forget her name. They have a lot of class, in a "I can do anything I want, although I still am a good person" kind of way.

 

[Dawn]

Dawn as the name of the EB. Can’t help but somehow like that name.

 

[Paxr0mana]

If I remember correctly, in BG2 (my only 'real experience' with 2E) there was a kit for Paladins called the 'Cerebral Knight.' It was mainly concerned with killing Mind Flayers. Hmm...perhaps that could be brought back.
