[QUOTE="doghead, post: 6077179, member: 8243"] [b]Some more random thoughts and ideas[/b] I don't really see Attila as an equipment/weapon user. Rather I like the idea of her growing into new abilities as she matures (levels). A form of paralysis poison that increases in potency for example. Did you know that some tarantulas have a dense covering of irritating hairs called urticating hairs, on the opisthosoma, that they sometimes use as protection against enemies? Species with urticating hairs can kick these hairs off: they are flicked into the air at a target using their back pairs of legs. These hairs are barbed and can be lethal to small creatures. They can also be used to mark territory. Thats pretty cool (and gross at the same time). Is this an option, or should I just put it out of mind? Do you plan to keep the anachronistic nod to Judeo-Christianity that is the prohibition on clerics using cutting and piercing weapons? Its not a big deal for the character, it just annoys the %^&* out of me because it so, well, anachronistic. Hmmm ... The nature of Attila's mutations have brought her to the attention of Seskoe, the Goddess of Winter, Witches, and Creation. Due to her snow white colour, her ability to create and operate in darkness, and her ability to manipulate temperature while resisting its effects, the followers of Seskoe believe Attila to be an avatar of their Goddess. And she is a spider. Witches love spiders. The fact that Attila's abilities involve heat they see as evidence of corruption of her true nature which, with Seskoe's assistance, they will purify. I was thinking that Attila is aware of Seskoe's interest in her, but is not fully aware of her intentions. To what extent Attila has had run in with the followers of Seskoe I thought I would let you decide. Right then, thats enough for me for the moment I think. I'll check back in later. thotd [/QUOTE]
