[QUOTE="(contact), post: 679670, member: 41"] Thanks-- it's always gratifying to see folks migrate from the LoT over to the RG. Glad you're enjoying the SH so far! :) The "truth" of the [i]pasoun[/i], and these character's particular role in the Ishlokian faith is already established, but the "truth" about Ishlok's former incarnation is entirely new . . . I was sideswiped by that revelation! 1) Um (looks around). That was my idea. The whole Elemental Air adventures was my baby. Whenever you see things that make no sense at all with anything that came before it? (Raises hand.) 2) Essentially, it just seemed *right* to both of us that [i]raise dead[/i] would act like a [i]finger of death[/i] against the undead, so there it is. I'm sure we could have written a rules-legal fiat for this if we'd cared to, but I think it's wise not to get too caught up in after-the-fact rationalization. It made sense at the table, so that's how we played it. 3) Thelbar is *terrified* of [i]feeblemind[/i] and keeps a [i]ring of counterspelling[/i] expressly for this purpose. 4) Very much like Heydricus, although Taran is a ranger/sorcerer. I think that the combination is really cool, and something like the psionic warrior-- if the fighter/sorcerer has an opportunity to get his spells up, he'll kick the single class fighter's ass, but if not . . . Taran's spell list focuses on defensive spells -- [i]shield, endure elements, mirror image,[/i] and [i]displace self[/i] being popular choices. 5 & 6) Maybe we'll see Indy more later . . . 7) I belive a paragon, but again, I'm the player. What I *know* is that he looked like the absolute epitome of everything a fire giant is supposed to be, so maybe that means that he had a 20 Cha and max hp or something . . . 8) Later tonight, ok? But go check out the LoT update first! [/QUOTE]
