[QUOTE="Plane Sailing, post: 812888, member: 114"] OK, no more story until the DM writes the next installment. Regarding my earlier "competition", I have to reveal that the winner is... nobody! I play Fareena, the red-headed stepchild who was regularly beaten and then sold to an orphanage, and thence as a kitchen drudge. She used to make up little childrens rhyming charms to protect her from the heat of the kitchen cookfires, and as she reached her teenage years they seemed to gain some real efficiency. She also got a real knack for starting fires. To start with, she refused to tell anyone what "class" she was, maintaining that she was "a cook". Indeed, her primary weapon for melee combat is a heavy iron frying pan (treated as a light mace in this case). Fareena is currently a Sorcerer 3, and I plan on taking her all the way as a sorcerer given the chance. I also plan to eschew all of the traditional "must have" spells... so she has no magic missile, no mage armour or shield, no invisibility (and she won't be getting fly or haste either!). I'm centering her on spells which involve fire or charm/compulsions. It's been great fun so far, even though one of the companions dies in the next adventure (in a maximum no-fun way). p.s. please don't tell anyone from that fiery thread on cross-gender roll playing about this, eh? :) [/QUOTE]
