CNR Suggestions/Discussion / Heavy tobaco

« on: June 03, 2008, 03:33:18 am »

Would it be possible to make prepared tobaco weightless or near weightless?

As far as I know smoking has no IC benefits, but the weight of the tobaco IS an issue for characters who are not strong. Playing a cleric who (used to) smoke I would love to be able to carry a good selection around, but the pibe weighs as much as a shovel and the tobaco three times as much as a potion.

Development Journals and Discussion / Seeking the path of Perfection: a healers journal by Galathea Arnaduillae

« on: May 27, 2008, 03:11:45 pm »

Dear journal

Since I took the first step on my path to perfection I have seen myself as a healer. One who uses her skills to heal and ward those around her. I treated snakebies, healed griveous wounds and raised the dead. In dungeons dark I have cast wards that protected my companions against the icy touch of the undead.

When I first set out, I did so clad in the shadows of Beryl. Using my magic I stayed unseen and healed my companions, rarely raising my mace or casting offensive spells. Before battles I warded, in battles I healed and after battles I tended the wounded and raised the fallen.

Now I stand before a fork in my path. I have grown and I am no longer a feeble girl with a blunt mace more likely to hurt herself than fell her foes, but an accomplished warrior priestess who may stand tall alongside her companions.

It no longer sufices to stay unseen, but more often than not I need to pacify our opponents with Beryls Pick [Hammer of gods] or fight my way to my striken comrades. Thus I find myself unable to remain hidden.

I see two alternative paths before me now...

One is the path of master Allgo. Combining the spells of priest with skills of a more rougish nature he moves with ease on the field of battle. Seeing a giant about to stomp down a fallen, he strikes unseen from behind and fells the brute with one blow. Traps in our path he safely disarms and when need be he moves unseen about. we are different in nature and I lack his the ease with which he moves, but by observing him and others like Alatriel I am confident I could a style of my own.

The other path is one shown me by all the warriors I know. The examples of Leone, Sil, Chakar and many others has taught me to respect their skillfull moves. I am not as strong as Sil, but neither is Chakar though his magic is arcane in nature. Using the right weapon, using it with skill and knowing how to fight and move in battles would be invaluable to me. To often my lacking skills delay my arrival and cost our comrades dearly.

A decision lies before me.

General Discussion / To the red light party (Imtau, Chakar, Fianon etc)

« on: February 06, 2008, 04:07:08 pm »

I am very sorry I had to go afk and then log off suddenly after we came out again. Real life acted up and I had to help out a cousin.

If I seemed "short of head" in my answers it was only because I had to type with my left hand.



See you all when we go for the mountains!
