[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 5743237, member: 63"] I'd say that the sword wielder could will the sword to someone else, even as he's dying, so as long as that person got to the sword within a few minutes, it could maintain the link. But if you want to make sure the players don't act too nice and hand the sword over to a local so it'll be safe, you could explain that in order for the forest to grow, the bearer of the blade has to grow in power and wisdom. So it has to go out adventuring. I never thought we'd knock out someone with that curse. Seriously, the half-orc started with a 6 Charisma? You could have the Seela offer a charm of some sort to mitigate the effects slightly. Maybe something that belonged to Gwenvere or another nymph back in the day, which would at least get him up to 1 instead of 0. As for the vain bard, sure, there's plenty of precedent of hideous monsters hiding their appearances with magic. But perhaps it could be a chance for him to learn a lesson. If nothing else, when they get to Seaquen, the mages will be able to break their curse. [/QUOTE]
