Mohdri takes a step foward...

"What ever I can do to help, Atrum, let me know."

Trying to let everyone have their time and thoughts, shortly into the next day Mohdri asks,

"What in the world just happened back there?"

This is bad why?

This means that every sage hint is a (potential) combat situation for what are essentially non-combat characters. This means that all sages would need to rely on warriors to safely get their sage hints?

The GM's, for the most part, are the ones that have access to the hints (sometimes they are not even in written form, just in the heads of the plot writers). So, most every time the Sage(s) are working on a hint, they have to come up with an excuse to "wander around to find the clue/item"?...

So, basiclly what is being said is that Sages have no knowledge of their own, they have to get all of it from an "outside source" at NPC camp. I thought that was what Research was for?

(Yes by the way, I really do exist. This is also for those that have been looking for me for a while)
