[QUOTE="Valmur_Dwur, post: 231403, member: 5065"] I wish I could post a reasonable answer to your question. Perhaps I'm one of the lucky few who while having played and DM'ed this DnD thing for a while have always tried to create a pc "persona" that grows as I game. Case in point my "handle" is a 4th level Dwarf fighter getiing ready to become a cleric to Gendwar Angrim. I had hoped to become a dwarven defender PrC but our last battle just made that impossible. The party plays in Greyhawk and we came upon a demon who was able to spit forth little jebli(goblin) creatures from it body. We lost the elven archer to the giant demon who kept getting up after it would fall over from it wounds that appeared to do it in. The jebli had nothing but sharp claws with which to attack but a couple of crits and Valmur had his tendons in his right leg slashed. Left alone by his companions who took the fallen archer back to Greyhawk city to try and raise her Valmur was confronted by a spirit of a Dwur from the lair the creatures came from. Anyway I don't think "metagame" when I play and don't when I DM a scene. That is the hard part of RP'ing knowing something outside of the game but not using your knowledge inside it :) [/QUOTE]
