[QUOTE="Naoki00_, post: 5743961, member: 99243"] well, I should first apologize if i seemed to be putting your suggestion down, it's just when i think "fighter" I conjure up a pretty generic image. Your example though is pretty brilliant, I don't think we'll be running into something like it, but it would be great if it did happen heh. Thankfully her armor has Glamored on it, so it can appear to be normal clothing. Really though she not so much just 'sealed in a can' so much as she has to be. She was 'reborn' by a devil into the body of her ancestor, who is very much dead. to add insult to injury only the head and face was revived, the rest is nothing but a skeleton encased in the armor that acts as skin, which is pretty much the undead template to a tee. The characters main characterization revolves around her opinions of the living and her eventual redemption thanks to the party and their adventures (with some twists, seeing as another players backstory and hers are connected in odd ways)..and while being stuck in armor sucks, it's still something other people could relate too, while being dead adding to that isn't something most people wouldn't be able to say "oh, thats bad but look at it like this", though you did give some pretty (read that again- brilliant) ways of role playing it still, a mental tick keeps making me say "sooo it's an undead, but it's not because it doesn't have the template?" Perhaps I'm just a bit odd in my idea of what makes things more interesting lol. as I said though i love the above example. [/QUOTE]
