Gotta raise certain flags first, boss. ;P

Plus, I'm not gonna be gone or anything. I have Steam Overlay xD

You know its funny I've always wanted to do a D&D game with people who could actually roleplay XD its taken me like five years to get my players to the point where they care about story and dont just murder everything. Mostly because in the last two games i ran opting to murder what I've painted as the "boss" for the encounter is often one of two options. Silly perhaps but when you do have a group that ranges in everything from Lawful good-Chaotic Neutral- Neutral Evil. You cant make anything cut and dry. One day I want to run a D&D game on either the Roleplaying guild or on Roll20. Possibly both. Im just concerned what will get is a bunch of people who expect to be able to game the game using the 3.5 rules. Luckily I only have ONE player currently who attempts that.

It's not gaming to memorise how things work. :P

EXACTLY

[Raineh Daze]

Also not gaming to avoid picking dud character options without some very good plan for how to make them worth it.

Now trying infinite XP exploits to make any magic item you want on demand...

@Raineh Daze

Yeah, one of 3/3.5's problems was that they intentionally put in lackluster options to "trick" new players and so that veterans could feel more smug about themselves. Although to his credit Monte Cook apparently later went on to admit that this was kind of a bad idea. XD

@Rin

Then there were the times they thought something was good but it just gave you the ability to do things a DM would let you do with a roll anyway, or having good feats behind dodge and mobility. Woops.

[VitaVitaAR]

Haaaave to point out shooting a big wave of fire at everyone fighting Alvor seems like a really terrible idea? For one thing I'm pretty sure that actually could seriously hurt Fanilly, and even if it doesn't not only does it not seem paladin-like but it also seems like a very antagonistic action even if he's nuts. ^^;

[Zetsuko]

No one talked to him before hand so he's not really allied with the party. and even if he recognized the Iron Rose name haven't they long since drifted away from being a religious order? they'd just be any other group of knights to him.

point is he doesn't care right now, he's not out to get you but he's not going to ensure your safety either. And if it means destroying his target he'll go through you.

It kinda seems aligned with how reonite paladins are in this universe, highly aggressive and out to destroy evil, he's just on the extreme end of that.

...at least, I think

@Zetsuko

... their most prominent surviving knight is a Paladin of Mayon. They enjoy good relations with both the crown and the church. I'm not sure how you can get to "well, they're incidental casualties". Failing at being a paladin when you start treating people like cattle, too.

[VitaVitaAR]

Paladins of Reon are out to aggressively destroy evil in defense of the innocent. Mayonite Paladins are typically more defensive because they're the Shield, and Reonite Paladins are the Sword. That being said you still get more aggressive Mayonite Paladins too, like Tyaethe.

It's not out of a zealot "kill everything bad even if it means burning down a village" type of thing. Reon/Mayon are heavily anti-slavery, for example, because it robs the innocent of their freedom.

As it stands he could get excommunicated. ^^;

[Zetsuko]

Even if the Reonite order doesn't have that Zealous nature he...kind of does

Remember he believes Reon herself commanded him to do this, he's following the voice in his head more than the order's tenets

I guess I uh...accept that consequence for him...

Mariah frowns on bullies. Prepare yourself mister screamy lollipop fire-y kind of guy.

In the name of the moon he will receive justice, like.

@Rin@Raineh Daze Ive heavily modified my 3.5 games to be honest. Pathfinder helped and then my own tinkering and a few youtube videos have gotten it to a much more RP facilitating point in my opinion

@Themerlinhawk

I'd... never want to play with you then, honestly. I don't have the patience to learn so many house rules it might as well be a new game, and nor do I have any faith in people to not screw it up even more. >_>;
