Sometimes the beautiful is more perilous! At the convention this next weekend my players will run into a sorceress whose beauty is on the level reserved for minor deities. I expect them to piss her off, of course, since they are all Vikings of the rough & tumble sort. My local group, knowing better, apologized for trespassing and weren't turned into "something unnatural". This other group will be strangers (an official convention game), and they will see only her beauty and her wealth. Pity. ;^) When my local group gets advanced enough to run into some dark elves, I'll remember this character. Carolly
