[QUOTE="James McMurray, post: 393358, member: 743"] [b]Re: Re: Re: I used to look down on high fantasy...[/b] For the most part they did. The guy playing Dokurt just joined recently, so Fokurt didn't start at first level. He started at 12th or 13th I believe. He was one level lower than the rest of the party. The guy playing Oskar joined a bit before him, and so Oskar also didn't start at first. He started at 12th or 13th as well. Everyone else has either worked that character up from first level, or worked on another character and then gotten a replacement. Galrond is an NPC (or DMPC some might call him). He was a replacement for Gundarag when the party's number of front line fighters grew and they had no wizards. Teflon Billy didn't technically work his way from first. He starated at first, but died at the hands of a Ghoul King early on and was not resurrectable. An old foe of the party resurrected him though, and then held him for torture. He managed to escape. In the interim he had gained some levels just so he wouldn't be third while the rest of the party was 9th. He's definitely playing a downtrodden henchman type. The stories he tells o his past employers (I think he really was Nodwick) make the current party look like angels. He is honestly surprised when the party offers him treasures, and he refuses to take them if they are worth more than he feels he deserves. The party had even seen a vision of Raffi fleeing from the Vestige. Of course, when they were flying away, Oskar was the only one in heavy armor, and therefore the only one moving at 60. After they managed to hurt it a bit, the Vestige got mad and threw on a burst of speed. He had no way of knowing that he would have been teleported away by galrond if it had gotten close enough to catch him, so he stopped and stood his ground. He did keep trying to escape though, but its hard when hundreds of tortured souls are clinging to you. No problemo. Last weekend they arrived at the door of the Fortress of Conclusion. I'll have to check those out. [/QUOTE]
