    @Daie:
    If you want to make absolutely sure that your side quest isn't going to interfere with the storyline, you should PM Scot. But unless you're going to introduce an entire different storyline, I wouldn't worry about it. :) Just go ahead and introduce your side-quest via NPCs or something, the way EI did with Huiy'Trej and the assassins. We all share part of the control, since every post in the RP becomes a new truth, no matter how outlandish.

    Yes, please everyone feel free to add to the story as you see fit. That's what makes RPing here different and imo better than just making up your own story. Once we get the Earth's Heart back, Sepp's quests will be complete, and he will feel honor bound to assist everyone who helped him in his quests finish their quests.

    Elwithral, I suggest we finish off this group of assassins that are currently attacking us quickly, but leave something mysterious out there, like we can't get any good information out of them as to who they are or whatever, till later.

    Can everyone remind me of at least one WEAKNESS that each of your characters has? Most of your strengths are obvious but it's the flaws that make them interesting.

    Atten's weaknesses are his narrow-minded focus on the Living force and his impatience with people who aren't in tune with it. In our world, he would be an environmental activist who would stop the building of power plant that would provide power to millions of people just because a rare bird nested in the area. His other weaknesses are his general lack of strength and fighting skills. Compared to the others, he is not much use with either melee or ranged weapons. He is certainly not a "fighter" druid.

    Delphinae's Weaknesses:
    Far too quick to judge others, and her low INT means she won't be coming up with many bright ideas for the group. (Hard to RP for someone as creative as me, but worth the challenge. ;) ) And while she may be an expert at ranged combat, her close combat skills are somewhat lacking.

    Sepp's obvious weakness is his inexperience (low level), and Maron's obvious weakness is her claustrophobia. (Alexi's weakness seems to be unconsciousness. :lol: ) Past those, I think I'll let the others speak for themselves.

    Jex is to willingly to fight. Even if the odds are a million to one he will try to fight. He doesn't trust easily, and that with his willingness to fight leads to conflict when he meets someone new.

    Delinos and Kelvados share the quality of being over zealous and over confident in their fighting prowess.

    Individually, Delinos' main weakness is his spell casting. Not the ability or power, but he watches what happens, like someone playing volleyball, and passing the ball, and not getting ready for it coming back, they just watch where it goes like, 'Wow, look at that *sigh*'. So he is weakest after a spell. Also, he is weak to light (drowness), but more so than other drow.

    Kelvados' weakness is his way of being treated. He is very easily hurt by words, and his self-confidence is lowered greatly. The other thing is his discrimination to non-Drow. He may not show it, but the person may want to watch out for curses behind their back. He doesn't trust people right away, neither does Delinos, but Delinos is more acceptable of people.

    Yes to what Felinoid said on Sepp's weakness, low level. After all of our adventures, he's probably had a few + bings for level ups. I've tried to roleplay them with him asking Atten about different spells or Jex about dual weilding. When he was shadow fighting in the alley back in Iceborn was one time I was trying to show him leveling up, and with his Ma using his body to weild powerful magic so much, some of it has stuck in his memory and transfered to his own skills. So I think maybe now he might be around level 4 or 5.

    Another weakness is his naivete. For example, though you've all told him that a mind flayer is a horrible monster, he has no real concept of the real terror that they are. Plus, he is still probably too trustful of strangers.

    Nakia has the halfling weakness of not looking at the broad picture. Although having adventured for a while is better at it than before. She lives pretty much for the day. She can plan a heist for days/weeks etc. if she thinks the loot is worth it. As Sepp realized she likes gold a lot. Not for its own sake but for what it can do for her and her family.

    She doesn't see as well in sunlight as in semi-dark. Of course her size limits her fighting abilities. She has no magic talents except if you consider the innate abilities magical. She considers them natural.

    She is friendly but doesn't care for humans except for a few. Mostly, if not all, ones she has adventured with.

    What a motley bunch. Who is the brains of this outfit? We all seem to have some sort of personality / intelligence defect.

    Well, we are only human...er I mean mortal. Without a few failings we would be demi-gods. :p

    Besides you asked; we answered. It is a rather interesting group.

    No. :hahaerr: If pressured, I'd guess Delinos (as a mage, he ought to have a high INT), but it seems to me that we're just a party of bumblers. And we all know how severely bumbling adventurers can screw up an evil plan. :D

    We all have our strengths though as well, and they make up fpr the weakness. Jex for example is an excellent fighter, so when does get into a fight, he can usually handle himself.

    Maron's weakness would probably be her claustrophobia (sp?)

    Her INT is pretty good, it's about 15.

    STR:13
    DEX:17
    CON:11
    INT:15
    WIS:17
    CHA:16

    Roughly that, I never did bother to give her stats, but I think thats it.

    Now that we're all engage fighting this thing, we should all know some info that I PMed to Daie when she asked for details:

    It's an evil water elemental, not a prince, but quite powerful. For the past eon or so it's been imprisoned in the earth, but with the weakening of the earth it has been able to escape. It doesn't want the earth to regain its Heart, because then it might be trapped again. It is full of ice shards, which it will probably throw at you and use as slashing/piercing weapons. It looks like a bunch of dark water, but can take water form it desires. It can't fly. It was imprisoned before the drow were driven underground, so it doesn't know about the differences in powers between surface elves and drow.

    Since this is Atten's quest I think we should take it easy posting until Harbourboy has a chance to add a post. That blasted time difference. I think it is about noonish his time...tomarrow. :)
