It's easy to impress those girls with words. So long as they're larger than 7 letters, you've been to college.

| | Yep, I reckon so. And the added benifit is that the further north you travel, the more entiving the accent becomes. But, I used to live around DC, and I can safely say, there's not much difference. Most people everywhere are generally pretty gullible.
@T....it was forced upon me as a one time only occurance as a practical joke. I hope Ysh is happy with herself

| | | @ BS, yes, I do know the guys go wild over the southern accents of women for the most part around here and vice versa.
I'm liking Z's character. Definately a very tormented soul.

| | @T....you were supposed to tell me she lamented her actions for ages and that the guilt made her cringe at the very thought of bringing me such pain. Work on your bedside manner
@Mag...well, look at it this way, it's usually a very short lived factor. Granted, it's long enough to get in, but you just have to walk a fine line bewteen being a sothern gentlemen and a redneck hick. Still working on that

| | Regarding my last post, if anyone feels like it's moving too fast and they don't want to be forced to work around it, just give the word and I can edit the stuff you don't want in it. Obviously, I might be pushing AC's part around a bit since my character is attacking her location and if it's going too quickly I can change it.
@Magrus...tormented, but still enjoys a good elfburger every once in awhile
Oh and BTW, just for clarification, Erudish is not leading the entire legion, he's just the head of a small group that has been entrusted with eliminating the druids. So no, he really doesn't have any idea where the equipment, etc. is coming from. He's like a glorified pawn, as clueless as the rest of the characters.

| | | Nice parts, Z. I've got a question, though. Is it your intention to encounter AC and moi in the battle you've started?

Erudish could wind up on your trail, or he could encounter AC and you in the battle. That way he'd end up in Windhaven either way.

| | Tracking down an escaped druid who could possibly going for help against your troops would make sense, Z.

Edit - Thanks, Ysh.  Your writing, as always, is beautiful and intruiging.
