I like our man Fred allready.

The purple gleam in the eyes as he's whatevering(I keep thinking of the first time Tomas used his Paladin's Sight down in Eye of Anubis, but it could be a billion different things. Damn not having class and level up above their heads.) was a really nice touch.

Just to keep you all occupied with the slower schedule... can any of you guess what Domain Fred is from?

I'll put him up in the cast page once someone guesses.

Well, we don't know too much about old Fred. We know he's a sailor, wears wool clothing, and speaks Mordentish. Wherever he's from probably doesn't get as hot as Sourange. I'm gonna guess he's from Mordent.
Delight is to him- a far, far upward, and inward delight- who against the proud gods and commodores of this earth, ever stands forth his own inexorable self.

Could be Pardon, though. 'Fred' is a pretty British name.

Fred doesn't look like a Paridoner.... Face is too angular, no facial hair whatsoever, looks a bit too pale.

You know, anyone who plays EoA should find this easy enough.

---------------

Also, the Alchemical Child is back! Huzzah!

You know, it's rather interesting that while Girot may have killed Zoe, he also gave the current Zoe life. They're not the same person, but the Alchemical Child seems to be no less a person and no less deserving of life than the prior Zoe.

Odd, that.

I think that's really important, personally. It keeps what Girot did ambigious-not in the, 'Sure, I'm a death knight, but I have /feelings/.' way, but in a more satisfing, 'Wow, he really thought he was doing the right thing, and messing up doesn't mean he doesn't have responsibilities towards his creation.' sort of way. It's just a more interesting situation to deal with.

Hrm. So we have what here, ghosts? Psychic auras? Phantoms? Geists? A gnome playing around with Ghost Sound? Something even more unexplicably obscure?

-------------

Also, is anyone else rather suspicious of Master Gravois? He's against trespassers, and lo and behold, one of his shacks seems to be haunted in an unappealing fashion.

Coincidence? Somehow I doubt it....

--------

I do like Fred's casual eavesdropping. Now is he just curious, or are there secret agendas at work? Personally I think just curious.

This is the first chance I've had to read what you've put up, and I have to say that I really like what I've read thus far. Great job! :)

Maybe it's the real Zoe's spirit?
