[QUOTE="Verbatim, post: 1843453, member: 15549"] My two coppers are this. The blade is that of a female dwarven fighter in the hands of an elvish female fighter/priest. To the dwarven mind, a fighter/priest is a truly wonderful thing as they draw on the best aspects of the two things dwarves hold extremely high on the totem pole. Faith and battle. Now imagine being that blade, being trapped inside a cave for who knows long, and the one candidate that you can reach out two is someone that you would really rather not call out to, but freedom is freedom. You land in the hands of an elf, barely out of childhood and full of doubt and confusion about your place in the world. You give her the benefit of the doubt and open up to her slightly, revealing who and what you are, but not trusting this one with the full knowledge of what your transformation has done to you. You see potential, but first you have to demonstrate that you are more than Bigby's Universal Tool. Patience is not your strong suit... No offense Kirinke, but you have a wonderful RPing chance that I would love to see you do more of. Hell, if you are worried about doing it on list, send Majin the stuff offlist and then cut and paste it here for us to see it. I personally don't see that the sword has been being snippy with you, I see it as being a dwarf with you, and in that regards I think Majin has been spot on. The elvish mentality and dwarvish one is very different, and while if the sword's soul was elvish, it might instantly tell you everything, but since it is dwarvish, you have to treat it like a rare vein of mithral, mine it slowly and carefully, as the rewards are worth it. I'm not trying to poop in anyone's cornflakes, as I know that we are all friends, but sometimes we have to expect that not everything will be available to us as soon as we would like it. It makes the getting that much sweeter in my opinion. Again, if you want to RP out a resolution with the blade, schweet deal and I can't wait to read it, if you want to give it to the first dwarf you see heading south, it is your call and who knows it might be for the best. However, just remember that while you and the blade may not always get along, the majority of dwarves are good aligned, so if a time of uber crisis arose, I don't think the sword would let you die just to teach you a lesson...:) [/QUOTE]
