[QUOTE="Anti-Sean, post: 2754669, member: 11797"] Grrr... I suppose I despise Rhynos so much because his humanity (and vampirism) hit very close to home. I can believe that evil such as him exists. End-Bringer, on the other hand, is an alien form of evil - one that my mind can always write off as a fiction (he/she/it is very real within the context of the story, mind you, it's just that I can safely put it aside when i remove myself from reading). Rhynos, to me, represents the evil that can and does well up from within each of us, as opposed to an otherworldly, external End-Bringer (from my POV/given what little I know about it as has been revealed in the SH so far). I guess the only way I'll get satisfaction with the character is to level up my PCs a bit and throw a vampire spawn named Rhynos at them and let them beat on him for a few dozen rounds before granting him final death in as gruesome and just a manner as possible. :) Excellent writing as ever, Funeris. Admittedly, some of it goes beyond some of my comfort levels, but I keep reading it regardless. I'm not exactly all sunshine and rainbows, but your story has challenged me to allow it to take me places that I'd rather not go. Follow your muse no matter what pathways it takes you down! We'll still be along for the ride. [/QUOTE]
