Oh that is just not right. Could you imagine Magnus getting the current party to help him do that and then ditching them as soon as the Riders were free? I could see that. But, I couldn't see them helping him. Sinjen is too worried about his honor at the moment to go and do something like that and Kilian would never agree to it. Could be interesting though! -----Original Message----- From: jimkaren@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jimkaren@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 9:08 AM To: dungeoncrawl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [dungeoncrawl] Re: Magnus' choice You guys will hate me, but I guess that's part of the fun. :) Getting the characters together won't be so easy for Magnus. In fact, as things currently stand, it may be well- nigh impossible. But, there is...aNOTHer option... and here's where that "hate" stuff might start. I'll assume that Magnus discussed this with Mylena. She'd offer some information, namely that Amrikol researched the same problem already. When he was first interested in recruiting Magnus, he didn't know if Magnus would be free of the gods or not. It was discovered that to free someone of Tyr's edict, their name needed to be expunged from the book of judgement - kept in the 4th Heaven - with a quill of a phoenix that is ready to reincarnate. One quill per person. And Tyr (and the other gods) would be sure to find out sooner or later... Did I mention that you'd hate me? :) > > Ok, here is a list of the characters Magnus would want to bring > along with him to populate a pantheon.
