Just rolled out of a quest run by Dezza. Not sure if I've ever been on one of Dezza's quests before, but hey, might have and just don't recall. But that's neither here nor there, I suppose, because I want to make a few comments on a few things I noticed while on the quest. No worries, mate. They're good. *grins*
We were a bit of a smallish party, but a rambunctious one nonethless, and by all means, roguish. (seriously, Cole was the only character there without rogue levels). As such, and I don't know how planned this was, but Dezza found a way to include each one of our characters "personally" in some aspect of the quest. When we got near Bloody Gate, Deiwos got to talk to the dwarves; in Himlad, Ireth ran into an Ilsaren she'd conversed with before; etc. (don't ask what Cole got to do... *snickers* though it would have made good soup!....if you like that sorta thing....).
One of the primary reasons this impressed me, however, was that this party included both characters with "strong" personalities and "shy" personalities. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Plus, half the party had prior knowledge of the situation, and half didn't, so this quest could have very easily become a "follow the ringleader like we're all henchmen" quest. But it wasn't. And I appreciate that. Even if Cole isn't one of the "shy" types. *snickers some more*
Thanks for a good time, Dezza, and all the rest of you lubbers that had to put up with a Troll's arse. *winks*
