I hate it when outdoor monsters just run when you get your level high enough. I like the new system in Avernum where you get to choose whether to fight them or not because of Nature Lore. -------------------- "Sometimes I get all hungry! And then I catch some flies!

Does getting spells to level 50 in the HLPM really DO anything? It doesn't seem to do much. Summon Host level 9 is the same as level 10, and that's the same as 50. -------------------- "Sometimes I get all hungry! And then I catch some flies! They fly into my webs!

The Isle of Big-Ail Revived by the wicked priest Anohar, the new Anama Church has spread evil since at least before the year 833. People far and wide have been subdued by its seductive call, with promises not worth the time. People were persecuted and subject to other undeserved punishment. It is a dark organization indeed. The Anama has bended the minds of common people with the promise of relief from troubles of the times. When the roach plague struck on the Isle of Bigail, also the location of the Anama’s headquarters, free healing was offered, with the priority to members and serious candidates. Who in his right mind wouldn’t? A healing spell was offered for free by an Anama administrator in a small town in the Monroe province, where it was taking its toll from the Golems. Easy access to powerful Priest spells and alchemical recipes were offered to adventurers who would give up their magic to become less powerful in the world, and thus, less influential in the critical, dangerous work environment. And finally, in the same area, mind-bending narcotic drugs were shipped to Gale in Monroe, where most of the money was sent to fight the most powerful monsters of all (Golems and Drakes in particular), explaining why that city in particular was so ineffective in fighting the monsters and how the Anama became so rich at the same time. These drugs were secretly being produced in and around the Isle of Bigail by farmers who were instructed to do so under secret penalties. It is said that Anama members would not interact with people not associated with their clique because it made them feel uncomfortable. Although this is true to an extent, the major reason is because Anama leaders instructed their underlings to shut themselves off from the outside world, receiving all news and propaganda from its own shameless Church. Questions of acceptance into the Church were rigged to make the listener sympathetic (such as the story of a very young girl happening to die in a magical experiment gone wrong, somehow supposedly discrediting the value of magery entirely). The real, secret agenda of the Anama Church was to cut itself and as many members as it could muster to gain off from the Empire and the world. Although this is generally admirable, it is not in the strict sense because of its intention: Isolated domination. The Anama wanted to create a subliminal form of slavery of its own worse than the Empire. Mages were forced into hiding, people of opposing views in the area were persecuted and jailed, and the non-Anama mayor of Shayder suffered an attempted assassination by poisoning. Imperial soldiers wandering about the Island of Bigail were in terrible shape as opposed to the Anama members fighting for what was supposedly the same cause of removing the cockroach plague. To go on further about the cockroach plague, it is suspected that the Anama knew about the location of the Filth Factory and the solution to the plague the whole time, but kept the knowledge discreet and refused to reveal such information. It is suspected that the Anama were in contact with the Vahnatai and helped in the creation of the plague because of the common cause to exterminate Empire citizens. Such evidence is that there were many human items within the factory, and that magical engineers created signs that shifted languages to the preference of the viewer. That said, amnesty from the effects of the plague was guaranteed to administrators in the Anama. Cockroaches were programmed to not attack priestesses, high priests, and officers and administrators within the Anama business. This enabled the Anama to further her reputation by being able to stand up and heal the sick, also with the threat of failing to heal those in desperate need who were not members. Buildings and crops were destroyed (including a small meditation center nominally Anama without anyone with amnesty there) because the Anama priests hid the secret well, placing a powerful Sanctuary spell over the path that led to the factory. The Anama had no reason for the curse to be lifted, and could only take credit in front of the people when it was. The Anama continues to spread, and it’s up to people like you and me to stop it. Only make scenarios that include the condemnation of this evil organization. Call your senators and tell them that you support listing the Anama as a hate group, and that they rely on your votes. You can also make financial contributions in the form of $5, $10 $20, or even $500. It’s important that we eliminate the spread of their terrorist agenda NOW.

If none of that works, I'll just pick up a free, old computer from the college, put the game on it, and send it to you.

quote:What? Goblins? Bolt of Fire can kill goblins. Fireblast and Divine Fire have the tendency to actually melt goblins down to their constituent pixels... they're that powerful. Unless you're talking about another scenario's goblins, like EM or Backwater Calls, that is. And Fireblast is infinitely better than Divine Fire, it's just that priests don't have access to the spell, so Divine Fire is the next best thing. QB][/quote]I was not saying Divine Fire was more powerful, I was humorously making the point that the two spells are about even when it comes to goblins. It was a joke. -------------------- "Sometimes I get all hungry! And then I catch some flies! They fly into my webs!

That's got to be because there was no kind of "Major Heal" spell (in-between Minor Heal, Heal, and Revive) like in Exile. Now there's just Heal, and Divine Restoration, but at different levels. -------------------- "Sometimes I get all hungry! And then I catch some flies! They fly into my webs!

Locke, do NOT get suckered into this. Do NOT join the Anama if your actual, real life depends on it. It's got to be the greatest religious rip-off in history besides King Henry's Church of England, and despite the "peaceful" propoganda the Anama spreads, they are really just cowardly murderers and thieves of the people. It's a gang that secretly manufactures addictive gateway drugs and ships them out to where the real money to fight the monsters was sent: Gale. It's a conspiracy, Locke, and don't you want in on it. Ever. This is for your own good, and the good of everyone. -------------------- "Sometimes I get all hungry! And then I catch some flies! They fly into my webs!

It really doesn't matter what game it's in as long as we yak on and on and on and on and on... Yes, the only things healers are remotely good for is uncursing items (that you shouldn't have put on before knowing what it is anyway) and raising dead (only if you're one of those "all-natural" players who doesn't save or reload). Remember, MagicPatrick, never put on unnaturally shiny-looking armor given to you by strangers. You don't know where it's been. -------------------- "Sometimes I get all hungry!
