[HQ Ignorance] Re : Re : New Character

[Loran]

...and after personal reflexion, I think that, in order to keep some of the spirit of the game, Kevin needs to find an good and logical answer to : What will a gargathi have to do with the Talor's fellowship?

For exemple, Azhur the Knight has in his background:
"My duty there was to protect the poor, to pursue and capture smugglers and poachers and to hang brigands and slavers..."

I don't want to control other players' choices and this it is absolutly not a threat, but a friendly warning between players: even an open-minded Azhur will find difficult to make continuous moral distorsions in order to guarantee friendly relationships between all positions and opinions within the group.
Azhur (and probably the player behind) lacks Aalmon's philosophical agility for that ;-)

I have seen a lot of RPG games crashing because of the inconsistensy of the characters and the opposite goals of the players... especially in long campaigns where newcomers introduced too much opposition (and sometime I was this newcomer but nobody advised me on the current spirit of the game and help me to integrate the dynamic).

This been said, at the beginning I have nothing against any type of character and you're welcome :-)

PS : I hope that i'm not too direct with my words, my english limitations don't help me to find subtle and nice ways of saying these ideas without taking the risk of appearing as a stupid boring jerk (what I can, of course, be sometime). Please see that as a wish to protect very pleasant moments that last now for several months.

Once again welcome, Kevin :-)

But beware Kevin, there is a trap there... Gargath is a really nice god of crazy outlaws and asocial brigands of the wilderness... good to be hangued would say any town authority.... no friend of Orlanth brotherhood.

With a name I think you should be an initiate of 
Gagarth? It would be very appropriate... Woods,
Talonrakes, Wolves etc..

Gagarth [guh-GARTH]

Orlanth and Praxian pantheons -- the wild hunter
Gagarth rides across all the worlds seeking lost or
lonely spirits as food for his hunt. He chases the
devout off their predestined path to eternity. He runs
down the lonely traveler on the moors. He dogs the
trail of all who resist him.

The fierce winds which accompany Gagarth sting like
red hot hail. He rides a demon steed which gallops
upon air, land, or sea, and he is armed with a
long-reaching barbed spear. His companions include
slavering spirit wolves and a howling crowd of dead
followers.

He is usually shown as a skull-headed man with glowing
eyes. He rides an eight-legged steed like a horse with
an eagle's beak.
