If there is internet play in the game than there's a chance that it would cost more for the time and energy used to set it up. The other thing that might happen(unlikely) is it's not part of the game and that you pay per hour or something. That would be like The Sims, and the GF series is definitly not The Sims.

I think that if somehow your character gets modified(the Awakened, GF2) you should automatically get a new ability you can train in. I mean, who has the kind of money to buy the spells from the guy who was obsessed with power? The skills could have a starting cost of ten skill points and the cost go up five skill points per level instead of one.

Well, first I joined the Awakened. Then I decided I wanted to to join the Barzites so I could get really powerful, so I left the Awakened and saved. that was my downfall. The Barzites wouldn't take me because I hadn't said enough with the right viewtype and I had already spoken to everybody. :mad:

I love them! If I lived in Valorim, I'd make sure I'd go over for tea and help them catch their 'big bugs'. Then we could eat them! Just joking! I'd have a hot fudge sundae. ;)

I would never kill a dragon, if it was possible. I'd probably cast haste and run. It's weird. Here I am feeling no remorse offing Vanarium in Nethergate(they wouldn't give me a mission they give the Romans) and I wouldn't kill a dragon if they attacked me?!!! :confused:

Maybe an ambitious necromancer brought him back to life for any reason between wanting to take over the world to a drinking partner. And then Vahkos caught him and drank his blood 'till he died?

VoDT NPCs in Blades of Avernum

Member # 4682
Profile #18
When I played VoDT, the first time I used that got rid of the waste, I panicked at the quickfire and jumped of the ledge. Unfortunatly(spelling?), I landed with Bruning right next to a closed gate and some quickfire. It killed him immediatly. I liked the message for two reasons;
1)I had had him for most of the game and
2)He wasn't protecting me, he was panicking.

Life of the Game in Nethergate

Member # 4682

I really like Nethergate. I have played it twice with the Celts and started countless times with the Romans. My problem with the Romans is that they don't have my favorite spells(like Doom) and I'm always scared to go into Annwn :( . Actually, Nethergate got me started on the Celts. I love the mythology and the way they thought about things. I especially like the way they treated women as equals. :cool:

Good books? in General

The Myth-Adventures of Aahz and Skeeve series is really good. They're by Robert Asprin. It all starts when Skeeve's(main character) magik teacher gets killed by an assasin right after he summoned a demon(his drinking partner) as a practical joke. Aahz(the demon) takes Skeeve as his apprentice and the rest is history. The first book is Another Fine Myth.

I particularly like the works of Garth Nix, Diana Wynne Jones, Phillip Pullman, Terry Prachett and Lloyd Alexander. Read their children's books too. Sabriel is very good. You should also read The Prophecy of the Stones. It's not by any of the authors I mentioned above, it's by Flavia Bujor, but it's good(and I just met the author a few days ago :D ). Small Gods is hilarious. I think that's enough for now, but I'll probably recommend some others.

Oh, forgot to mention, one of the main things in paganism is that you are never allowed to hurt anyone, whether the abuse is physical or verbal. This rule also applies to all forms of the Goddess.

I'm a Pagan and paganism just accepts people for who they are. I used to be Jewish, but when my family and I went to the synagouge, I didn't pay attention, and I've never read the Torah. IMAGE(biggrin1.gif)

I love them!!! That might be biased though, because I love dragons in general. They're my favorite mythical beast. :) Actually, I've only met two Spiderweb Software dragons: Reptrakos in Nethergate and Motrax in A2.
