So far for me its afair balance.  You are right to say that her actions have a campaign home some world.  Any campaign that would appease her antics would turn into a situation comedy as opposed to the dragon lance novels you speak of.  I could see a warrior running fearlessly through a pentagram.  But I don't see wa warrior saying "wheee" and jumping in the center of it.  Maybe in "Dork Tower".</blockquote>
