Transcendental technology bordering on divinity forged in fires fueled by a lifetime of unbending devotion - all just so a fucking larper live out a fantasy he can get off to. I suppose there's just no avoiding this inevitability.
So the female childhood friend became the male dwarf in the party I'm guessing, and he of course became a female elf.... hmmm I think I see where this is going.
I suspected as much the moment a dwarf appeared, but there was somebody out there cultured enough to bring back dwarves, huh. I find his beard's shortcomings worrying, though...
@alacaelum: They wouldn't. If there's anyone out there green enough to bring orcs they would only think of WAAAAGHing, krumpin' and little else (literally). As they should be.
