[QUOTE="Jarval, post: 1243718, member: 421"] "OK, firstly, the PC term is ursine lycanthrope, not wearbear. Sorry to nitpick, but we need to be seen in a good light when we work with these folks. Secondly, this isn't a hunt. We'll be kiting you out so you can defend yourselves, but let's not go in shooting. And yes, there are some unregistered rogues running around the place.
