[QUOTE="Kinak, post: 6207027, member: 6694112"] Yeah, that's very key. I think it could be a better story, but if they keep it as a story I won't have to retcon it. Even felliron would be better, although not by much. Ironfell sounds like it should be a place name where a meteor fell or a "fell" made out of iron. At least felliron sounds like it's describe a metal. Wow, that sounds... awesome. Glad I missed that one. This is one of the flavor things that I feel the system itself has played a big role in before. If you have Summon Monster I-IX and can ring up whatever outsiders you're cleared for at a moment's notice, it's harder to make them feel like a big deal. Mechanically, it'll probably be fine if they make those spells require concentration, but flavor-wise it's still a disconnect between these easy short-term summons and the summonings we tend to tell stories about. Yeah, I hope they're not using those results for anything because the polls are written in an extremely leading manner. Yeah, I figured I was missing something. Now I'm just confused. Cheers!
