"'Evil' is a relative term. Ed was not his name, but a moniker denoted by the people of Haven. He *was* cetainly an anomoly , not only in wishing to enact significant change upon Phanterra - a cataclysm of his own - but also in dealing directly with mortals." "Regardless, most of the ...

"Any aid you can offer would certainly be appreciated. Undoubtedly the bells would prove too tempting for some of mischevous or selfish disposition, but the villages would be expected to punish those who ring them as a prank or for petty reasons. Perhaps they'll even make the bell off limits to...

"I would like to see such a bell in all the local villages, Alice, so help can be swiftly summoned in the event of raid, fire, injury, or other emergency. If you could discover the cost in time and material to forge such a thing, we can present it to the Regent and perhaps set in motion a plan ...

"Just has we have need of, and reason to fear, fire and water. But with greater knowledge of such things comes an increased capacity to benefit rather than suffer from thier presence, it's true."

Dallid chuckles. "If we did, perhaps bards would spread helpful knowledge to farmers the world over. Alas, those who work all day are not seeking education in the taverns at night." "I was asking for leads, not artifacts, though either would be a great boon. Regardless, you pursue a n...

I suggest rules for the Rules Suggestions Forum. 1. Before suggesting a rule, look over all prior topics to make sure your not rehashing an old discussion. (very easy to do currently) 2. Your suggestion should be in your topic title, not something generic like "What about this?" Then folks...

"Ah.. Dragons. Yes. Not much can be found in written lore. Phanterra is in imbalance with them all trapped in a pocket-dimension with Corbyn - achieving their freedom is paramount. Yet currently our only lead thus far has been to track down all the items Corbyn used to create this situation. Yo...

"Science is lore learned and used to build and create. Applied knowledge. The Iron Cities idolize science - to a point where their applied lore-masters, or 'scientists', rushed to discover new lore and be the first to utilize it in a creation. Unfortunately this mad rush typically precludes frs...

Dallid stays a bit longer at Serith’s request. “Paer’an has spent a great deal of time in the Dreaming… Looking for something… or perhaps someone, maybe. Corbyn’s now-destroyed sword? I’m not certain. I fear I dismissed it from my mind as his goal was impossible to pursue given the state of the Drea...

"Tome research?" Dallid inquires as he enters to see Alice, Malachi, and Zeira. "I would think Brandybrook would be the place for such things. Is this a subject beyond their ken?"

Your're too deep in mechanics, Ark. You don't have to enact Defensive Matrix to stand your ground. Slisk almost never did. I've made my own thoughts on metaphysics well known in the past, but the overal game and rules perspective is very much open to individual interpretation - which in turn support...

"Marcus is correct. Our only defense is town patrols, our only warning system is the runners sent from trouble-spots to fetch help." "A large-scale magical ward is prohibitively difficult to setup and maintain. Traps would do more harm than good. However, an alarm bell could perhaps b...

This pretty much comes down to style. You've described your own preference/style/character concept for a warrior, Ark, but to each their own. Skills exist in FH for many different concepts/styles. My own for Slisk was as a shield wall cog. Stand your ground, take the blow like a man and give back do...

"Little threat of that, fortunately. This season has produced a boon harvest. Epic, I dare say. The farmers' main concern thus far is storage for it all, and safe disposal of the waste before predators are attracted."

"Troubles with the Council seems a common trait among the local Valkyn'Vi. But then, if all was well at home, why would they be here?"
