So glad Ajantis is coming along. I took a look at the English progress thread and didn't read every post but got the idea. Sooo...there will be a NPC rival? Hmmm...interesting! I don't take kindly to rivals tho so whoever it is just may wind up on the end of my pc's sword. Or maybe not if the engagement is acknowledged in Chateau Irenicus? Regardless it will be wonderful to have my favourite paladin back. It sounds like it may be soon.

You are so thoughtful! And Aklon is the perfect gift

Thank you in advance . . . .

Merry Christmas!

I sometimes look at the title of this thread and mistake the "for" with "of." A present "of" Aklon. THAT will soon be the best gift of all!

wewt! I wonder how much writing is to go~ I so can't wait to play it!

No kidding! I check this every day and keep hoping he will be available soon.

Or how about "Aklon, will you love him or leash him?"

Sorry couldn't resist!

glad to hear it's going~

Me too. I check here so many times a day it isn't funny! But then I guess a lot of us do. I can't wait for Aklon!

BigRob...I just wanted to pop in and ask how Aklon's progress is comming along...

 

I've got a big stick (perfect for prodding) and I'm NOT afraid to use it!

 

 

 

I hesitate to ask, but what are the chances we'll see Akon this year?

 

Oh, and before you respond, remember my big stick.

Ha ha! That's much more polite then me saying that the longer I have to wait the more likely Aklon is to be my slave. At least at first!

This may sound dumb but how about a pc who would have her party stand at one end of the temple district and then go near the kid, conjur a monster and have it force attack and kill her.

I mean there are all sorts of ways to kill off npcs in a game without doing it with your own hands exactly. And I do like to indulge in different roleplaying styles. I like to be good sometimes and I like to be kind of bad sometimes. It is really great to have options. But like I said above I may be too chicken to hurt Gavin that way.

Given the fact that any number of unfortunate fates can befall someone in the City of Coin, it might be advisable to make provisions, should Lanie meet some unfortunate fate before Gavin is recruited...

Wow that is some great thinking on your part! I never ever thought of that. Unless you are meaning you have to make provisions for Gavin knowing that the pc could have done something before he joins and then he dumps his wife because of it. Anyway I guess you'll decide soon at least I hope so because I can't wait for SOA whatever happens.

No, she isn't his biological daughter, but Lanie thinks he is. Miranda knows Gavin isn't her father, as does Gavin, but Miranda is unaware that he knows.

 

Confusing enough?

 

As for the option where the PC either had Lanie kidnapped or murdered while she was evil, then confessed, I don't know how that would pan out. He would be torn by a lot of conflicting emotions, and I'd definitely need to think about how he would react.

I'm a big chicken and may not be able to see such a thing through. I know it is supposed to be a bad thing but if he was too hurt and broke up with my pc I think I would have to load a still good save from earlier. I just don't think I could follow on to the end with such a terrible sadness!

Okay sounds good then. It was a silly thought. It really is Gavin to care and keep his word. If he hears MIranda say all that stuff to the Talos priest then I can't wait to hear how he may tell Miranda off! Of course she may say she needed money and Gavin didn't give her enough and then Gavin may feel guilty. : (

Oh, there isn't any doubt that the premeditated murder of an innocent child for selfish reasons *should* make a paladin fall (ranger's a little closer to the grey area, though). I think I could look to the hell trials, perhaps for inspiration, should I decide to implement this.

 

If a paladin's decision to sacrifice a partymember to avoid losing a stat point would make a paladin fall (in an unmodified game), then I would feel a lot better about forcing the fall after hiring the assassin.

 

But thanks for the feedback, both BigRob and Guest. I need to think some more about it. It would certainly mean some changes to a certain ToB encounter.

Ok I registered. I'm glad you are thinking on this but don't worry overmuch. As a possible idea feel free to tell me if this is a dumb idea, but I've been thinking about Miranda. She doesn't love Gavin anymore and it seems like Lanie is just a piece of luggage for her. Maybe she and the pc can just arrange for Lanie to be sent somewhere far away. Or the pc can pay her to take off with Lanie for good. Or something like that and then the pc won't have to worry about feeling guilty for killing a child.
