  1. 7/10 I feel like I should know you, but I can't recall.
  2. Would one require magic to bend an apparition to their cause? Or simply require malevolent intent?
  3. Chainmail will not protect you from any arrow - the arrowhead will simply puncture through the links and your done. Also on the longbow vs. crossbow argument: http://www.thebeckoning.com/medieval/crossbow/cross_l_v_c.html Basically, the crossbow has (a ****load of) more power, but is a terribly inefficient weapon in comparison to the longbow. It has a longer (almost 15x as long when used by a PROFESSIONAL and TRAINED user) draw time and due to the short limbs of the crossbow, wastes a lot of potential energy when firing. Contrary to popular belief a crossbow bolt tends to be lighter then your average longbow arrow, so the difference in actual power is very little. At short-to-mid ranges the crossbow will outclass the longbow in sheer stopping power, simply because of the increased velocity, however, due to the lighter nature of a crossbow bolt, at longer ranges, the crossbow looses a lot of its effectiveness. The longbow will win. Also factor in the fact the longbow can fire approximately fifteen to twenty-five arrows in the time a crossbowman can get off one, however, being able to take a longbow back to its full draw weight is a ***** - trust me, i've tried - longbow training takes YEARS to start to rub off, not to mention aiming with a longbow is much more difficult then with a crossbow. Another thing you might want to consider is that bows were not a weapon for one on one combat. Ever. Bowman were only ever fielded in large amounts and generally, you would hardly ever hit your target - the point was to pepper the hell out of an area and maximize casualties with each volley by attacking massed enemy formations, you did not simply focus on a single target each and expect to hit every single one. Remember this.
  4. Once he reveals himself to be a dragon in RP, I'm assembling a team of dragon hunters huehuehue.
  5. [[ Could be worse. You might've had ninjas >.> I wish you luck. ]]
  6. Bael watches Kilgrim mindlessly write something in dirt. Remembering a similar incident, Bael gets the translations and sets his bum to work. The Second Mathic Era The fractions of that which he has barred from entry The other have their devices of war and disunion, definite as what they have always been, the caretakes of their fate; They shout and plead and offer their voices to the heavens, but they are as the deep caverns beg for sunlight The way is shut. [[ Also, I know what the third update is already. I saw the lore :P ]] EDIT: [[ DAMN IT NALRO! ]]
  7. Saviticus IS an Irongut though. Sure, he is banished, but he still was one at one point. Plus, when we say non-Irongut's can't use magic we only refer to the arcane subtype. All dwarfs can be shaman-trained or druid-trained (although the majority of dwarfs would find both those streams of magic revolting).
  8. Updated. I also request that a FM delete Shoi's copy of my profile, that was copy and pasted from the wiki and is very old.
  9. [[ Why is he taller then the average human o.O ]]
