[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 2219663, member: 2525"] You guys are missing the obvious analogy. The Forsaker is the B.A. Baracus of the group. You remember B.A. Baracus, right? See: [url]http://www.ateamshrine.co.uk/ba.php[/url] Just as B.A. Baracus would "die before I fly", the Forsaker would "die before I fly, teleport, planeshift, or any of that jiggy magic stuff". Now did forsaking all flying stop B.A. from being a contributing member of the A-Team? Heck no! In fact, it didn't even stop him from flying (virtually every episode). It was just ALWAYS against his will and while he was knocked unconsious. And let's face it...while you and I given the same situation would figure out that the rest of your crew was planning on knocking you out to take you somewhere on a helicopter every single week, B.A. just wasn't the brightest bulb in the bunch. Besides, he had Face using his super-high charisma and bluff skill to trick him into thinking everything was peachy keen. He honestly seemed surprised every single time that the rest of his party smacked him upside the head for a K-O to get around the thing he had forsaken. In other words, with good role playing I think a Forsaken character can work just fine, even with a high level party, and even on the rare occassion when magic is necessary for the party to travel somewhere to further the plot. Either that, or I've just been working too hard lately and have gone right out of my gord. Pity the fool. [/QUOTE]
