Isn't he just the best? ;D<br/><br/>Anyways, your idea for our characters sounds completely fine to me. We can talk about whether it was Tgamo that found Salimah by poking and prodding the temple of Pharasma or those hanging around outside the necropolis or if it was Salimah searching for Tgamo after hearing rumors of the foreigner that desperately wanted inside the necropolis for reasons other than to stuff his own pockets. I think you pretty much hit on the reason why she'd keep him around, at least at first. It'd be pretty obvious to her the first time they met that Tgamo lacks the attitude and mindset to make it in the city and he's just so laughably naive to boot. He doesn't seem like the type that would ask questions of her or figure out that she might be using him. I kind of like the idea of her viewing him like someone might view a pet - he's cute and amusing because of the weird things he does but you always have to keep one eye glued on him so he doesn't do anything too dumb or break something.<br/><br/>Still trying to decide how my character would feel about your character's resurrection though, assuming that's something your character would share. Curiosity would definitely be a major feeling, and heck, she might even think he's chosen or touched by Pharasma in some way. Salimah might even develop into some kind of guardian for him or a teacher depending on how things go and what direction the adventure takes, but she'd at least have a few talks with him about Pharasma and what he thinks his rebirth means.<br/><br/>As for everyone else, I might wait to hear what you had in mind for your own characters. I know Salimah wouldn't mind teaming up with Nestor if she got wind of his reason for wanting to venture into the necropolis; wanting to rid Wati of any undead plaguing its' tombs is a goal she can get behind. She'd be pretty ambivalent toward Nesha, Salimah doesn't have the highest opinion of Sarenrae but at least Nesha is somewhat of a local. Rand would be the troublesome one. Salimah isn't going to blow her cover by outright challenging her, but that doesn't mean she has to like Rand. :P<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>(Pasting in EndofDivine's comment from the PM's)<br/><br/>I like the idea that Salimah found Tgamo to be a useful tool. He's definitely out of his element in the city, but hopefully we'll have a Very Special Episode where his unique talents come to the fore when they have to go into the wilderness for a time. I'd like to keep the bit about his resurrection secret for now and reveal it in play. He sees the rest of you as companions, but isn't ready to come clean about that yet. The most he'll say is that a vision guided him to Wati and the tombs.<br/><br/><br/>Biblio - I had missed that Nesha's parents were Mwangi. I think we can certainly use that to tie our characters in more closely. I like that she'd be curious about her tribal heritage, and he'd be happy to tell her stories about it. Currently I don't think Tgamo can even speak Mwangi (low Intelligence, and no points in linguistics), but I'll try to shuffle something around to make that happen. Where did Nesha learn the language?<br/><br/>Also Nesha looks like a cat, and Tgamo's people revere the lions. I was considering having him take the Beast Totem rage powers as he levels up; possibly that unconscious choice will be due to his proximity to Nesha. (Although upon re-reading the rules it looks like claws and two-weapon fighting don't really mix, so maybe that's mechanically a bad idea.)<br/><br/><br/>It seems like we've got somewhat of a focus on the undead here. Both Salimah and Nestor are focused squarely on eliminating the undead, and I expect that Nesha's religious upbringing stresses that to an extent as well. Tgamo will be spooked by them once he sees them for the first time, but afterwards probably curious. As a first suggestion for an adventuring party name, how about "Hunters of the Dead"?<br/><br/>So Muse, what's up with Rand? What's her motivation -- basically to amass treasure, or something else?<br/>
