[QUOTE="WizarDru, post: 1301102, member: 151"] Destan, another wonderful update. It's a tough call, but I think Baden may be my favorite character. Shame if he dies, but if he does die, they'll remember who he was, that's for sure. I suspect the two young dwarves at his side aren't long for this world, either way. You know what I liked? I liked that half-elf ranger. An excellent character, fleshed out wonderfully with so few words and so little dialogue, and yet he felt very distinctive. The whole campfire scene was just wildly wonderful stuff. This part of the exchange, for example: In one paragraph we learn more about Wilan and Baden than a descriptive text might reveal. Deftly handled and enjoyable throughout. It just seems...well, [b][i]right[/i][/b]. Mind you, the impending battle for Vath and Amelyssan was wonderful, too. Once again, a great reading of how a simple game mechanic, spell preparation this time, can be renedered interesting and flavorful. Incidentally, I'm not a PA native by birth, unlike my wife. I was born in upstate NY, and began sliding southwards every since, through NJ, Philly and then down to DE, then bounced back into southeast PA (the resulting insinuation about my opinions of the nation's first state being left as an exercise for the reader). My wife's family, however, comes from coal country, which is why she's curious what part of PA you hail from, Destan. :) [/QUOTE]
