Yes. I didn't care much for punishments/rewards, since Thornarcrull, following his role (yes, he had and followed it!) didn't care, is it a good event or bad, since everything that he experienced (Arvam's religion) were EXPERIENCE. He didnt care for book's knowledge, but he wished to experience as much as possible - and he successed. Onl once I (a player, not a character) got frustrated and stepped out of the role, when five marans/warlocks came to the pit, looting my things after I entered the wrong room in some dangerous area.

About being logged and not fighting... when you are a healer, and you know that they are together, do you really need to fight? I prefered to wait for other evils to come.

I know that I missed a lot of hints and used also a lot. I wasted quite a bit of my health in ST, but the way which I'm forced to use to get in... a bit boring. Just my opinion. ;)

Naw naw naw. It's not a problem. Most of the time I think "damn, Nep is right here!", but Thorn would not agree anyways. I'm posting as Thorn - it's too late to change anything anyways. I'll leave forum/game at the next two weeks, and if I'll ever return, I'll return under another nickname and with another personality. :)

Hope you enjoyed this personality despite all the flames and such.
Arrogant, stubborn, selfish Thorn.
