Mavic is probably more ok with hit and run raiding than sneaking. He's not particularly honorable, but I figure his tactics of choice probably owe more to holier-than-thou paladin brothers than rogues. He's just too bloodthirsty and too morally flexible to actually employ those tactics as they were intended. He probably considers himself as "better" than actual paladins, because when he employs LG tactics he "gets what needs doing done" rather than shying away at the last moment because it wouldn't be fair.It's not "allowed", but Mavic's not likely to consider it a credible threat or target right from the start. If he were overruled in the matter of stealth, there's likely to be some fair bit of pouting involved too. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Mavic's doesn't give giants that sort of credit really. They're dumb, brutish creatures that rely on their strength rather than their wits. When you kick them, they kick back. They lack willpower and mental fortitude, and they're lesser creatures. He recognizes that they're dangerous, but in the same way wild dogs are dangerous. That is, even if they've got alerts going on they're not likely to respond in an appropriate or credible fashion to Mavic. Yes, I know it doesn't make a lot of logical sense. Mavic's beyond "normal" logic though, he's a hate and spite-filled racist. The only way he thinks he's ever going to prove those qualities as not inappropriate is to kill giants and become a hero, which he knows deep inside he isn't. If giants are the only real evil you focus on, to keep yourself from feeling dirty and evil yourself, then every other evil is merely an obstacle that you're not going to pay much attention to.But if he thought that would be the best way to kill the most giants then Mavic would all for it...<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Seriously, I think Anastasia and Latalya are just going to have to provide morality and reason to Mavic a lot of times. They're the only people around that are likely to prompt any natural respect from Mavic. I should have made a more reasonable cohort.  :\</blockquote>
