She latched on to the concept of Good and Protection domains based on the basic concepts, not because of her abilities. But to let her character use a sword, she let her initial decision on race slide -- the difference between elf and half-elf probably wasn't that important to her.See, for me, munchkinism is in part characterized by min/maxing to come up with the best character to the exculsion of character concept. She was just min/maxing to make her character a little better whilst maintaining a game concept she latched on to for little better reason than it appealed to her, which I see as different. In a way, she was being faithful to the parts of her evolving character concept that was most important to her.It was also sort of interesting to see that she didn't assign one of her best score to charisma. I am really so used to that among female gamers that I considered it de rigeur for them.</blockquote>
