[QUOTE="DarkElven, post: 675281, member: 10216"] More seriously, Ziona, your storytelling is almost a match for Piratecat's IMNSHO. I could easily see it being novelized with just some styling changes and revisions :D This particular telling has me glued to my oh-so-comfortable recliner ;) I have to say though that Belasco's character as he is portrayed through your story hour having little to no idea how he is acted out throughout the actual session) is the most intriguing character by far due to his less than selfless motivations. He even comes complete with working complexes and hatreds I've seen many purely selfless characters played out with little bigotry and prejudice (although I am not accusing any character in the group with this) and the character concept of the drow anti-hero has always been my favorite archetype to model my characters on provided I can get away with playing a drow :D . Yours/his representation fits that model fairly closely and in some manner it almost feels as if MY character has been transported in with the Unusual Heroes, making this telling all the more poignant. From what I've read, that character acts in many ways similar to the way I play mine, although I've never had a drow dual wielding weapons before. I usually had some form of mage or arcane spellcaster and as of 3e, a monk as well for the twist that a disciplined character would face as a member of that sinister race. My characters gravitate towards the neutral spectrum who tends to gravitate towards evil, or at least has a comfortable tolerance for evil acts (accepting of torture, betrayal, etc). Anyway before returning to the point from which I was sidetracked, I would like to thank you for delivering these sessions in such an exciting way and I would like to congratulate Belasco's for what I see as his excellent command of his character. Edit In: And I would be very pleased if he should become cognizant of my offer after his return :D ;) [/QUOTE]
