How does one counter an army? That's easy, you buy them off. I perfer Sembian tradebars or magic items, BTW. :)

At this point, I'd like to nominate Alduras Nikain for general.

Shit. Why did I have to be the dumbass with leadership?

Oh and NecronLord? Khaless? :wink: Not complaining, I just find naming a drow priestess after a Klingon emperor humorous.

Yup. I found it hilarious enough to go for. It was actually from a drow dictionary somewhere. Apparently it means Trust. Presumably it's an assumed name.

...that's pure gold :) Once I get off of work, I'll finalize item choices and such, and that SHOULD be that, assuming I haven't made any greivous errors. Open-to-close shifts suck :(

On a related note, I get off work at 7PM EST every weekday, and I don't work weekends. Every other saturday, til about eight-ish, I'm out playing Battletech. This saturday is one of those. I'm usually awake til about 1 or 2AM EST on most any day, so there's my range.

I will now engage in the traditional response from a Sunite Paladin facing assassination.

The word is attributed to "The Drow of the Underdark" by the way.

Don't worry! I have Khaless to deal with assassins, and he killed 500 warriors with the worst sword ever designed.

Crap. Wrong Khaless.

You'd call that a sword? I'd say 'tuning fork with delusions of grandeur.'

More of a tooth pick, to be honest. But still, they call it a sword.

Well, I capped at twelve, but it's looking like Lindar has lost interest, so with the proviso that she doesn't come back, you're in.

Great! I'm in class at the moment. I'll whip up a couple of characters when I get home. As I said I'll play anything. My last three characters have been spell jockeys. I'll go over the entire thread and find my niche!

Meatshields would be handy, to be honest, but go with the flow.

I mean, if we get no other meatshield, me and Tevar will hide behind the mages and shoot into melee. Even if they aren't technically in melee at the moment.

Is it too late to get in? I've had minimal RPing experience. My friend only recently got me hooked but this interests me.
