[Ross Vernal]

Yeah, you're golden.

[Remuthra]

Plus, who's the better magic user here, really? Especially with mind-magic?

Thales Aranis is the greatest of all magic users! His One True Arcana is infinitely better than all those other false magics, and any events that might indicate otherwise is an illusion created by the heathens.

[Rolepgeek]

Guess who're really good at illusions?


Bards.

[Remuthra]

Hey, the charismatic bard is necessary for the full potential of the arrogant highbrow fanatic.

[Rolepgeek]

True.

Though, it means I was wrong. I won't be the comedic relief. You will. Daeth will just happen to make you into it.

[Remuthra]

True.

Though, it means I was wrong. I won't be the comedic relief. You will. Daeth will just happen to make you into it.

It's a dual act. Good humour bad humour.

The difference is my comedic value isn't intentional.

Myrln.

Hehehe

[Xanmyral]

All yah'll mages wit' yer fancy writing magics ain't got nothing on a good beatin' stick.

[Gamerlord]

And you silly fighters with your silly little beating sticks are worthless against the undying power of Mingan.

[Rolepgeek]

Yes, and while you may be right in some ways there's still just a simple way in which you are fundamentally wrong due to the constraints that being a physical weapon user imposes and forces you to fight in such a way as to allow magic users an advantage as many spells completely bypass armor like mind-affecting ones that music magic is quite good at and many other spells can slow you down or otherwise disable you while magic can be used from a distance though there is something to be said for physical prowess as magic users eventually run out of mana oh and also

[GrizzlyAdamz]

Not everything needs to be a competition people.

[Rolepgeek]

YES IT DOES YOU'RE WRONG AND I'M RIGHT NEINER NEINER

Cracking up right now.

[Xanmyral]

Hehe, I'm just personally laughing at this stuff, none of us are taking this seriously man, we're just messing around.

In serious though, I do prefer the more martial side of combat to the more magical side in fantasy, which is funny considering that is very much an about-face to how I used to consider things. I like both, just like the 'feel' of melee characters more if that makes any kind of sense which it probably doesn't. Big reason why I love TES series, although I've been disappointed in the magic side of it as of late.

[Remuthra]

You see, this proves my point. You inferior beings can only play a full magic user or a full warrior, so you have to choose which to play as. Thales Aranis can play both a full mage and a full warrior at the same time, and is better than either at anything. It's just something that comes with being the best. For instance, you know TES: Oblivion? Thales put on the Amulet of Kings, and it stayed on. Then, he saved Kvatch before the dremora destroyed it. I didn't have much fun with the game, honestly. After so much time hanging out in the Imperial Palace, reading Elder Scrolls without going blind, it gets boring.

[Rolepgeek]

Daeth is a full magic user, as well as a scholar/musician. Thus, he has a bit of the rogue type. He doesn't have skill in fighting because he doesn't usually have to; knowing when someone is lying to you, period, as long as you can see their face, as well as being both incredibly intelligent, having a vast store of academic and bardic knowledge, your magic being based on sound, and simply being good with words, tends to mean that if there's fighting, there'll also usually be someone fighting for him.

Just saying, since we're all comparing...wand sizes, (yeah, let's go with that) of course.
