Avernums how many people do you prefer to use in each of the Avernum games? in The Avernum Trilogy
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Monday, October 23 2006 07:19 Profile Homepage #19 quote: Originally written by Wadge: Hi. I wanna try playing Avernum with only one custom character (à la Elder Scrolls series) but I can't quite figure out how to make a viable one. Your best bet would be to give that character the Natural Mage and Strong Will traits. Because the last thing you need is one easily-encumbered spellcaster with a tendency to get paralyzed. Generally speaking, when you play with just one character, you get a lot of experience really quickly, and then it levels off after a while. So you should be able to reach a stable character build pretty quickly. Oh, and if you want to learn more, I'd advise using the Search function on the boards and entering 'singleton'. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead.

Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Sunday, October 22 2006 19:44 Profile Homepage #14 Well, Avernum/Exile has the wide-open world that would be necessary for an MMOPRG, but the plots tend to be not multiplayer-friendly. And, of course, as has been said, we've discussed the whole futility aspect before. I'd love it, but it'd be awfully empty. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

A4 contradictions in Avernum 4
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Sunday, October 22 2006 19:04 Profile Homepage #10 quote: Originally written by YATT: —Alorael, who unrelatedly never really was able to reconcile everything said in A1 about the Empire's stranglehold on the teaching and use of magic and A3's ease of access to magic. Even A4 should have some mention of wizards heading into Avernum to get access to spells they can't get in the Empire. For A3, I believe the wilderness-y, edge-of-nowhere feel to Valorim is to blame. That, and once the Empire basically pulled out of the continent for the quarantine, there'd be no real point in enforcing studies which could've helped the survival of the cities. I can't imagine an Empire official in Lorelei being too concerned about unlicensed mages while simultaneously being worried about skribbane and giants, with the solid knowledge that your superiors were more than willing to watch you get slaughtered as long as the quarantine wall would hold. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

Isn't he always getting killed? He stopped getting killed every episode after a few seasons, when everybody agreed that the joke had gotten old. Then he died for real, only to possess Cartmans body after he drinks Kenny's ashes (mistaking them for Nesquik or something similar). His spirit is channelled into a pot roast, which is eaten by Rob Schneider for some reason. Eventually, he's revived for real. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.
