Well, I can change that. Are they too powerful? I tried to limit them both, but I definitely see where you're coming from. An ankou is unable to draw blood or do things that aren't breaking your neck, and they're really weak; and a huldr is ridiculously slow and stupid; plus neither of them use weapons of any kind. Do you have any further suggestions?


The Ankou may be glass cannon, but they seem like effective ones and that's what worries me. For the Huldr, well, the bit about killing men in one blow and being made of stone. It has shortcomings, yes, but not necessarily a weak point, as far as I can see.

@G: Lol.

An Ankou is about as fragile as a skeleton. That is to say, very. They're effective, yes, but only for sneak attacks and the like. If you expect an ankou to go up against an armed and/or ready opponent who is prepared for it, and come out in one piece or even victorious you're fooling yourself.

I think the idea of a weak point for the huldr is brilliant, though. Maybe they could have a hump on their back which doesn't have a stony coating. And they're flammable, too. That's a good idea. All you have to do to kill one is set it on fire or stab/smash/shoot its hump.

So I'm not feeling well, I'm just gonna go to sleep. Indi, if at all possible, post soon. I don't want to find myself forced to move forward and assume your character joined without going through how she did first.

So is anyone alive out there? I'm going to talk to some of the adventurers, see what they're all about.

I will go to sleep in a bit, though.

Jarn is going to go buy supplies from a smith, and make some useful metally stuff. I'd be open to chatting between whacking hot iron with a large hammer.

I talked to G over PM, and we realized that Syn couldn't possibly know where he is, over at the smithy. So she'll probably talk to Zerk instead, though it'll be tomorrow morning because I"m tired.

If Zerk's still lonely tomorrow morning (9:30 PST), I'll bring Ilsa in; she's free.

Liz is there too now. Guess it's a party. Being in Hawaii does not make this conversation thing easy.

May I just bring up one problem?

That is the rather huge influx of story posts that lap over each other. If you don't read the topic for a day you have to sift through like five pages of other players' posts just to see if someone said: "Hi!" to your character. :O :O :o

Try using CTRL-F to search pages for your character's name, if it's overwhelming.

I'll be gone for the next 18 hours or so, just a heads up.

EDIT: I've postponed my plans a bit. Not sure if I'll still be going away or not.
