That is very true.  Keep in mind that technically, Krodo is a rogue.  He has
the same duelist prestige class that Marnie does, but he does have 7 or 8
levels of rogue.  Not that that means a whole lot, but...  :)

I think that would make an awesome group and one that might be especially
fun for Matt to DM because Krodo can lighten any group.  :)  And they are
all good aligned individuals.

The only downside is their power level.  I was talking with Matt and it
might be easier for him to start out by DMing some lower level characters,
because there is less that he has to account for as a DM and less "options"
that the villains/NPC's will have for him to keep track of.

    Krodo and Marnie would be a great adventuring couple.  I'd love to see
an
adventure with the three of them.  They are all powerful, yet they have a
limited set of resources (no rogue, no wizard).  It would be very
interesting to
see how they would resolve certain situations.
