Can't stand the silence!!

Aye, do you mind if I borrow the pendant idea for my character as well? As i was reading your bio it came to mind, and then once I saw Connavar had a similar amulet, it seemed to fit.

I'd been planning on revising my character history, anyways. Once I finish it i'll post it here on the board.

Why not? Feel free too, maybe each wing had a way to show it's alliance, e.g. amulets for the Divine, rings for the Magi, tatoo for the Fighters, dagger for the Rogue and a branch for the Nature

[Xandax]

Well that would demand that our ancestors were the same "class" as we plan to be - and I don't think that would be plausible

[Pebz]

Not necessarly... Lets say my ancestor was a fighter, but once saved a druid grove from destruction, and got this branch as a token of friendship. Then when he was dying, he passed it on the me and told me to seek out the Blades of the Banshee for some reason.

Well it would stil be going out on a limb - what if you had your branch but wanted to be a wizard, or rogue?
If there was to be some sort of "mark" on the Banshees, it should if anything be the same for all Banshees - and even then I'm not sure that it should be "implemented".

I like the idea of searching for other banshee around the realm for clues as to what/who you are (or rather what your legacy is)

[Pebz]

If everyone are to have the same thing, i'd suggest a ring or a amulet... fits all classes.

Maybe someone should make "the mark of the banshee" to put on the ring/amulet.

[Nippy]

So everyone likes the idea of an amulet or ring? You could have the choice I suppose.

Does anyone remember the discussion about letters? We should be able to come up with a mark that can be used to seal the letters (like a wax seal) if they include the writing feat or allow us to use them. It would make things interesting.

I think we should also come up with (talking about guild maintenance) guild secretaries and the like. I'm happy to carry on as PR and as information for the guild. Saigo is a historian, Xandax is site maintenance. Is everyone happy with that?

[Rob-hin]

Is this story running a long time or have you just made it up?
Also, are there discussions about the Blades of the Banshee on the Arguile board?

I like the whole idea of what I've read so far, nice work!

But, if every should wear a item (a ring), won't this weaken this person since he can't wear a magical item instead?
Perhapts it's a nice idea to give it powers, and as the character level's up, so does the "ring".

Absolutly not - almost only (we think) the DM/TATers at Argyle know about us as a group.

Nobody says it has to be worn - could just be in your backpack.
And BTW if you find a magical ring in Argyle you are lucky or high level (in wich case you are lucky )
As for giving it powers that would be something only possible outside of Argyle in own modules (Argyle will be magic-poor, thus I doubt they will make magical rings for us from lvl. 1 )

[Pebz]

The ring should be more like an ID, not a artifact of almighty power (it could however have hidden powers yet to be discoverd/implanted )

Anyone got any suggestions on how this ring should look like?

My suggestion is a silver ring with a blue (or red) transparent stone with the mark of the banshee inside it.

[MegaToerist]

You can wear only one magical ring on each hand, but that doesn't stop you from wearing other, non-magical rings. So, a signet ring would cause no problem whatsoever.

[Pebz]

Actully, you can only wear 2 rings (1 one each hand) at anytime (if the screenshot is correct).

Well I'm pretty sure that we can find a way to sort this out. As Xandax says, there aren't just 6 or less people to have items to give out to, there are over 100. I'm sure having one magic ring (luckily) and the BotB is more likely...

Rings get stolen, lost, sold by spouses on shopping sprees... How about tattoos? http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TheHiv.../winknudge.gif

[average joe]

well, tatoos might be an option for some, but for others i'm not so sure. actually, i think that's the case for all of us. Since our characters are descendants, i find it highly unlikely that each would have a ring, or an amulet, or a tatoo. Some might not have anything. This might not contribute to this topic, but it's just my point of view.

I don't think a standard ID for all of the members is a good idea at the start. When the second coming of the Banshees begins, then I could see it. Until then, if you want your character to have a certain ID, then do it. It's just up to you to provide the background story for it.

Once again, these are just my thoughts.
