I'd be a Level Infinity Ultimate Ruler of All Dimensions Everywhere.

And then I'd have to return the silence glaive

If you don't quit stealing my glaive, I'm gonna have to send you to Dr. Tomoe's lab for a makeover.

@Shadow, you really must stop borrowing that glaive. Considering some of the things @SS has fought with it, you have no idea where it's been.

I suppose I'd be interested in a kind of multi-class Harper/mage. Kind of tough gaining experience as a multi-class, but I could always work off steam by casting orbs at chipmunks.

How 'bout using Burning Hands and having some Chipmunks roasting on an open fire.

Heh! I bet you'd be great fun in an RPG session.

Are you trying to make me cry? Your succesfull anyway ;_;

I dont know if there is a crpg based on the Mythic Europe world. In that case i would be a Criamon(sp?), a kind of insane tattoed and enigmatic wizard.

hmm... i have a clear memmory of posting this before

Yeah, and I accidentally overwrote it, by hitting the edit button, instead of quoting. Which is why I wrote you privately to inform you of that fact. Mea culpa.

In any case, there was a really good CRPG once set in a mythic Teutonic world of the Middle Ages. Darklands substituted alchemy for magery, and you had to collect different ingredients and recipes. It also let your party of four pray to saints, each of whom could grant their followers temporary access to a variety of effects--a substitute for priests. The game was the first to use an engine to generate random corridors, and the first to use "stop time" battles--an ancestor of BG2, where you stopped the action, gave your PCs directions, then hit the space bar to start things up once more.

ah, that explains it, thought i had spammed another thread or something...

Are you talking about that microprose game? never played that one, perhaps i should have. Didnt mean that when i was referring to Mythic Europe though, ME is a world for the RPG Ars Magica currently owned by WOTC (like everything else

) wich are supposed to mimmic medieval peoples thoughts about thier own world and so for there is only one god, moors are evil and worship the devil etc...

although it isnt *that* authentic it have a certain feel of mud about it wich i really like
