[QUOTE="Jdvn1, post: 2824419, member: 26424"] I guess I'll go first because everyone else hasn't commented on this? I hope for Malachi to have his role in Adonai's Great Plan solidified, which of course requires more information on Adonai and also on the people's perspectives on deities in general in your world. Once the information is presented, Malachi and Wakil will have to consider their actions past and future based on any available dogma-type information. Moreover, since Malachi isn't a priest himself (and is at best unsure on plans to be a priest), some sort of formalized religion will probably be made with him possible not a part of the clergy. Since he's had a brief connection to Adonai, he may have more such visions in the future and would be a prophet rather than clergy, to the Church of Adonai. Regarding xp, 225xp in 7 months seems fairly painful to me. Especially since it'd take another 30-35 months to level once, at this pace (... or, actually, isn't it much more? Like 60 months?). While I like the roleplaying aspect and recognize that at low levels a lot of combat is possibly a bad idea, I think the character classes don't really come into their own until at least 3rd level of the class. That seems to be many years off. I like the roleplaying, but I also like levelling every once in a while. Regarding plot points, there aren't a lot of them currently. I'm unsure on how the character of Naomi will play out, since it seems that we have a little kid tagging along with us now. An NPC in the party could be problematic, or at least bog things down a bit. She's colorful and interesting, but too many intertwining plots and problems can be a crutch in a PbP game. On that note, I'm glad Mery is gone [i]and[/i] safe. Naomi will be a bit more complicated, with the whole pedofile thing, which is also related to the low level problem, since we can't quite go head-to-head with a bunch of guards of a politically powerful person. We also don't have any political connections to bring him down with. Naomi isn't alone in this pedofile thing, remember. We may be keeping her safe for now, but there are other little girls just like her (though probably not [i]just[/i] like her). The party needs to get back together, I think, and we need more resources if we are to help the situation. Otherwise, we need to get on the ship and ship out and leave the problem for another time. ... And Naomi, I guess, would just come along. I don't know of anything we can do with her. If the entire party were together, we could have dropped her off with Mery, but it'd probably be tough to get the party together and then to go back and catch Mery and Brrerick before they've gotten too far.
