It's obviously a bound demon that knows exactly when to eat posts and stuff to wreck maximum havoc. :p Chow.</p>Honesty say I'm torn, I like our group and it's interactions but GM Tareth's game looks even more amazing than DM Kudo's great work.

<p>If I'd seen this before, I'd have offered to GM for this group, but thanks to Tareth's and Warren's generous offer that's probably no longer necessary. Oh well. If folks want to keep this group intact, I'd still be game for it, either on a permanent basis or til a new GM can be found.</p>Oh jeez, I must have lost my dot. I only saw this now.

<p>At last count, we had just recruited a new bard, I have a druid, we had a paladin, and we had a combination oracle/magic-user. I don't know how many of the other three are still active. Anyway, this is my character for DM-Tareth's game.</p>
