Also, he has made it abundantly clear that he would rather shoot the werewolf and leave it in a ditch somewhere rather that take a chance on her.
Being a Zherisian, the edicts of Ezra mean about squat to him and due to his hard life of sailing, he knows when to trust people.

All of this is readily evident in his demeanor and general attitude toward the werewolf as he occasionally growls threats under his breath and glares hostiley when he believes the werewolf may appear threatening or when a good opportunity for her to back-stab the party becomes evident.

I do apologize to anyone in advance, but I cant RP it any other way. For my character to trust a were creature in any light is completely unreasonable. So in future defense, any difficulties that arise are in the best interest of RPing my character correctly. Even if it gets me killed by the parties pet werewolf.
Hey there's nothing wrong with that. Roleplaying is great fun, so feel free! She is a Mountain Loup Garou after all ;)

k cool, I was just getting the impression that some of us wanted to have our PCs out and out accept the werewolf right off the bat, which I couldn't agree with.
Thanks for correcting my assumption.

Thanks folks I'll be here all night

More seriously though, I'd actually feel sort of cheated if there wasn't any argument or discussion over Ms. Lerbin. So don't feel compelled to be nice or restrict your roleplaying out of considerations for me.

For that matter, just because Josephine has a backstory and is my cohort doesn't mean that those discussions would be out of place. I recall a Planescape game I had where my cohort spent most of his spare time attempting to kill my PC through various ingenious ways. Fun times.

Because of his monkish background, Marentor is not able to sleep within 10' of any female. The sole exception of this is his family members (i.e. his mother - half-sisters are NOT exempt from this rule) and of course his cat Hailang, because as we all know, A Cat Is Fine Too. So he'll either get a separate room and share it with the wizards (which will allow them to share spells as well) or he'll kip down on the common room floor.

When he gets a spare moment to spend with his (male and non lycanthropic) friends, he'll mention something about a disturbing vision he saw... but that can come later when he works out the sleeping arrangements.

Tarlyn says that everyone has his own private room, so Marentor will be ok.

Hi all,

I didn't want to give the impression that Lucius accepted Josefina merely because she is a cohort. That was not it at all. In fact, Lucius is a cleric of Ezra and like Valerian he does believe in conversion and compassion, perhaps even more so than Valerian does. So, it's perfectly within roleplaying believability for Lucius to support Valerian in this. Also, I haven't seen many opinions supporting Josefina, indeed I feel the majority of the group is against her presence. But that's fine by me, I do believe there is room in roleplaying for both views and I have picked Lucius' in honest RPing bona-fide.

I only expect others to do the same, I don't want to force anyone to do anything.

To Van, on some very different note: when I spoke about exchanging spells, of course I was thinking of our private rooms, not the common room, to do that.

Way I read it, the distribution is Valerian, Cornelius, and Lucius are on Josephine's side, in roughly that order of strength of support, and William, Tarlyn, and Van are against her, again, in order of strength of support. No clue where Marentor falls.

Oh, just to clear things up, Valerian's "I'm certain that Ou-" is him cutting off "I'm certain that Our Lady in the Mists will support you" or some other platitude like that. The graveyard suggestion is because the walls have ears, Kantora doesn't have many parks, and I didn't think things through. They might have benches or something though.

Ok, NeoTiamat. Thanks for the explanation, but Lucius doesn't know that... I think he's turning a bit paranoid in a land he doesn't know.

Oh goody...

I wondered whether to post an explanation, but I decided that there's enough things to be suspicious of (I can think of four or so character mysteries off the top of my head), without letting people unknowingly go down blind alleys. If you still want to go down said alley, go for it!
