Regretfully I have to drop this one. Family life has gotten busy and crazy. Best of luck to everyone and my apologies.

Quick question:Would it be possible to make one's magical speciality the ability to stop magic? My character's first and foremost a warrior, which would render him very vulnerable to magical attacks unless he had some sort of counter. I was thinking that enlarged vas wein in the brain/head region would allow one to counter/negate the mental attacks of others? (e.g. the ability to stop an enemy spellcaster from rendering you unconscious but not allowing them to control your mind).This wouldn't stop any physical attacks - a magical blow to the head would still knock him out, and he couldn't counter a great ball of fire hurled at him (other than by running very, very fast) but it would at least stop him from being a plaything of any hostile mages.

Questions about orcs:Connection seems important to them. I have it in my head that communal meals would be important. Sort of like... no matter what you're up to, you'd better be with someone for dinner. Friends, family, stop in a tavern... Eating alone would be... worrisome.Also, I'd imagine with the whole warrior culture... Maybe those who are spiritual greet the morning with a short blessing. More or less 'Thank you for another sunrise. Blessings to those who have died and are missing it.' And then in the evening. "Thank you for another sunset. Blessings to those who have died and are missing it."*shrug* Are those both ok? I love little cultural details like that. May I toss them in? I don't wanna overstep my bounds in your universe.

Exactly what I was thinking Dext, sounds good. If I have a chance I'll start writing up my CS today (once I've got the character firmly set the words don't take long to come). Once Dizzy and I have sorted out everything, the remainder shouldn't take long to add.
