  • 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.

I Am From Californa Too!!!!!!!!

Hey so am I. And on the Magic thing, I am saying that Kahmal and Mathais are pretty well matched(But the Consi can still fry out tails;) ). And James(Calvery Beware;) ) When he charges with his Spear and Sheild beware!!!! O.K. O.K. I will addmit defeat on the Archery thing. But Mathais will be 10% less at archery than Leighla.
And the Mongols and Assrians, Chinesse, Japan, and a few others had the Composite bow.
P.S. I am going to have a Bad char. His name is going to be.... Kamos, hendred, or Xenos.

No, I pinched it from 'the simpsons' and changed a few words. Kinda like this one:

Who controls the Perian crown?
Who keeps the peasant revolts down?
We do! We do!
Who keeps Mordor off the maps?
Who keeps the Mindflayers under wraps?
We do! We do!
Who holds back the steam-powered cart?
Who makes nutty Paladins look smart?
We do! We do!
Who gives the beholders their amazing sight?
Who really loves to start a fight?
We do! We do!

If she were here, reading this, Leighla would give a full blown belly laugh. Then everyone else, who knows Leighla does not show such strong emotion, would drop their jaws in shock.

Methinks you are not thinking about the YEARS of practice and experience it takes to become expert at any skill and you are claiming Mathias is great in multiple weapons. C'mon now, is that realistic? ( I know we're in a fantasy setting, but I'm enjoying the debate.)

I would like to read a good explanation as to why he could/should be so skilled in so many areas, especially since he is so young.

No, I had to change the entire Nutty Paladin verse because I couldn't think of a word that ryhmed with 'guttenburg'. So I didn't get it from the Simpsons.

De' Green Knights are singing this song. Gawain lived five hundred years before this story took place. After all, Arthur was a Celtic chieftan who battled the Anglo-Saxons. And plate mail wasn't invented yet.

(Stupid Arthur movie. He was not Roman!)

Re: the fight in the magical dome, militia men were there, but they were mopped up by Asha's staff (a handful of them, anyway) and Marie's wolves. There were a bunch of them held prisoner in the cave w/ Maldirk and Sniven, remember? Anyway, they are long gone now, having run back home w/ their tails between their legs.

Now to more serious matters. So, you like to filk songs, eh? I have several friends who like doing that also, but they use classic rock tunes. One of them is called "Down by the Shield Wall" to the tune of "Under the Boardwalk." If a filk is done well it can be hilarious.

Good turn of phrase means you know how to express yourself using witty combinations or arrangements of words, good grammar, good spelling, etc. At least it's among the best I've seen in this group, but you're in good company. :D

Since we are getting close I thought everyone might like to know a bit about where the party is headed, a small town called Akhonne.

On a high hill, surrounded by fertile fields and meadows, sits the lovely village of Akhonne. Like a lone flower hidden in tall grasses Akhonne shines in the virgin forest. The only other distinctive geographic feature of this area is a large granite quarry several miles northeast of the village. It is from this quarry that the gleaming granite slabs used to build the keep, and the wall surrounding the village, were taken. The wall is not designed for defense, but the keep is an impregnable fortress, well able to stand any ferocious siege. The fields and meadows extend three miles from Akhonne in each direction, giving plenty of room for large crops and livestock grazing. This also ensures that no one may approach Akhonne without alerting the watchmen atop her walls. Beyond this small open plain lies miles and miles of virgin forest. Only three roads have been cut through this forest and they lie south, northwest and northeast of the village.

Akhonne is far from being a simple village for she is home to many fine artisans and craftsman. The villagers enjoy a lifestyle unheard of in most feudal societies and the village is a prosperous and happy place for all who live there. The area is overseen by Lord Sir Lawrence Athenuel, Viscount of Akhonne. He is a jovial and generous man, wise and powerful as well. His rule is fair and just, providing protection for all his people as well as wise judgement in disputes. No filth or offal will be found littering the streets of this village, Lady Victoria forbids such. In her own right the Viscountess is a scholar and a gentle lady, ensuring the health and well-being of the Akhonne populace along side her husband.
