  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

wow, we've three.. no, four characters with a quiet personlity in a group!
Phaedro, Tosan, Alarena and Oamra.. this is definitely strange. :eek:

maybe i should change Alarena into a white mage. I wouldn't mind doing that at all. Two black mages are too many no? is a white mage permitted to use offensive moves though?

Uhhhhhmmmm... White Mages have holy kind of magic, I believe... excellent against demons, might I add. ;) They DO have offensive capability, but it mostly works on evil demons and stuff and undead.

Red Mages, though, have some of both Black and White Mage abilities, just not as powerful on either end. That would be a way to go. :)

Sheesh, I think just about EVERYONE is pretty quiet! Tsaien isn't exactly the biggest chatterbox in the world (understandable for a sk'kirrim) and Minion's a thief and needs to know how to be quiet! I think Nadi's the only loudmouth. :p

Yeah... a lot of defensive magic, primarily, like barrier spells and whatnot. More than the other Mages, though, White Mages tend to have some kind of church-like organization to them. I think I see Alarena more as a Red Mage (the scimitar would fit perfectly with that, since Red Mages tend to have a little more fighting ability than White or Black Mages) but that's just my perception...

Pretty funny about the personalities, though, huh? I expect Phaedros might end up talking a whole lot more than he wishes, though... the curse of the GM character! ^_^

um.. i find it uncomfortable praying to a different god right now, even if it was in a rpg (unless you can give me some option). Otherwise i'll take the red mage.. and go change my posts.

poor Phaedros.. that doesn't suit his character at all!

Dunno what to do about that, then... it's a really good thing you chose not to play a sk'kirrim, then, that's for sure. :) I ended up having to structure it all sort of like Tolkien had Middle-Earth's theology set up... trying to balance the magic issue with the whole God thing is really tetchy so I chose simply to do the same type of thing Tolkien did. (Iluvatar and the Valar and the Maiar...)

Red Mage, definitely-- I have trouble seeing Alarena as a White Mage, anyway. ;)

Hehe... Phaedros might have to extend that vow of silence to fifty years when all is said and done! :p

Sounds good, then. :)

If the deity thing is really bugging you that much, though (which I respect) then you miiiight not want to go further... after all, in a war against demons spiritual and religious entanglements inevitably follow. (Though once again, I plead the Tolkien defense! Like I said, I ended up taking a different approach to the matter from Christia...) All that stuff is mostly background, though, and will remain so if that's what people are more comfortable with...

Anyhoo, I'll go change the list thingamabobs. :D

it probably doesn't say that in his profile, but my idea for Tosan was that he's quiet, because he spends most of his time alone, but that when he really connects with someone and becomes friends then he can become quite lively :)

Ah... cool. :) Mr. Chatterbox is NOT the Phaedros you normally see-- though yeah, he is a pretty nice guy to most people except for sk'kirrim. Even then he's not outright hostile; he just gets very cold in the way he deals with them.

:D LOL, the weird stuff that happens... :p

And I have writer's block right now... starting is always the hardest part! GAAAAH! :mad: :p I mean... it IS kinda weird to just up and say, 'Oh, we're going demon hunting!' like it's some kind of Sunday stroll, ya know?
