[@Cultural Titan] Yeah, I was going more for the fantastical barbarian, as opposed to someone on the wrong side of the Roman border. You know, think Conan, or Dungeons and Dragons/Path Finder/Diablo etc. They're normally large, masculine warriors that run around half naked and tear everything to pieces. Them guys. Wait, hold on, let me get some literature. "For some, there is only rage. In the ways of their people, in the fury of their passion, in the howl of battle, conflict is all these brutal souls know. Savages, hired muscle, masters of vicious martial techniques, they are not soldiers or professional warriors—they are the battle possessed, creatures of slaughter and spirits of war. Known as barbarians, these warmongers know little of training, preparation, or the rules of warfare; for them, only the moment exists, with the foes that stand before them and the knowledge that the next moment might hold their death. They possess a sixth sense in regard to danger and the endurance to weather all that might entail. These brutal warriors might rise from all walks of life, both civilized and savage, though whole societies embracing such philosophies roam the wild places of the world. Within barbarians storms the primal spirit of battle, and woe to those who face their rage." - From Path Finder wiki. ^ That's kind of what Oglaff is. He's definitely not a Thracian goat herder. And don't worry about loading yourself with more work, you've got enough to do over in Okly. Oglaff will find his own way into the action. [hr] Oh by the way, have you managed to contact Leslie, or any of the other missing players? Half the story has come to an abrupt halt, hasn't it? What are we going to do if they don't return? Sooner or later the cogs are gonna buckle and we'll need to do something about it. Maybe best we cross that bridge when we get to it though, eh?
