Why work with others?</i>
<br />
They're part of nature, and therefor of worth. They deserve life and a chance to fulfill the measure of their creation as much as the moss by their foot! (this is not said sarcastically). As a druid he understands nature involves life and death; good and evil don't really bother him unless it involves wanton disregard for nature or its creatures, from a good or evil perspective. </p>
<p><i>2. Underdark dwellers opinion of surface dwellers and vice versa?</i>
<br />
As technically a surface dweller, he considers himself more of a dweller of the Underdark. However he's never truly had to live for a <i>long</i> periods of time in the true Underdark. But it's also been months before he'd been in the dwarven halls, and years since he'd actually seen the open sky. He has been perfectly content. In regards to the question he feels a little pity for surface dwellers, not being able to see the beauty under the earth which darkvision allows him to see. On the other hand he feels some admiration and respect for the Underdark dwellers, knowing how tough and cunning one must actually be to survive and even thrive in the unpredictable and deadly bowels of the earth.</p>
<p><i>3.Your Willingness to risk your life for a stranger.</i>
<br />
Extremely willing, as long as that stranger wasn't hell bent on ruining nature of course. It's most accurate to say that his willingness to risk his life is in direct proportion to their apparent love for, or hatred of, nature. Strangers are all assumed to love nature till they prove otherwise. Who doesn't love nature!?</p>
<p><i>4. Visual challenges darkvision characters opinion of light dependent and vise versa</i>
<br />
Again, he laments their lack of darkvision, as they cannot truly appreciate the beauty of nature under the earth, but he understands their disability and will certainly be willing to help supply light to assist with their survival.</p>
<p><i>5. Your goals in an unpredictable scenario?</i>
<br />
Peaceful resolution, one that preserves as much life as possible.</p>
<p><i>6 Possible compatibility issues, what personas would you get along with most and which wouldn't you?</i>
<br />
He has a difficult time with mass murderers or those who do massive or irreparable harm to nature (which is basically the same thing to him), and undead he's not a fan of, being in violation of natures laws by their very existence. He gets along best with those that respect life and nature, and it helps if they have a positive attitude, he's drawn to that.</p>1. Why work with others?

<br />
<b>"As most will tell you the dark lands are a dangerous place, it's better to move around in groups. But that is not the only reason why I work with others, my whole life I have been trained to protect our merchandise, that training sticks with you and even if you don't own the ones traveling with you and mine teaches to watch over them.

<b>"As long as there not Chelixian.......I hate those vile huummaansss."</b> He gives a gruff, <b>"Everybody tricks and everybody betrays, they are all weak and strong in some way. As they say a dagger in your back is still a dagger in your back no matter who put it in there."</b></p>
<p>3. Your Willingness to risk your life for a stranger.
<br />
<b>"Depends on the prospect I would gain from there survival. Like if I believed they would make good money on the auction house or they might lead me to something greater then I would risk myself for profit or power."</b></p>
<p>4. Visual challenges darkvision characters opinion of light dependent and vise versa.
<br />
<b>"Light, Bah! Many Surface dwellers don't believe we use light but darkvision only can show you so much and with a flame you can see greater details. Also the light dependents come with a few advantages, they provide themselves as a target and help us ambush those who focused on the lightneeders, bwahha! The other advantage of being with one without darkvision is they have various light sources to blind those who don't use them and help us get used to the light."</b></p>
<p>5. Your goals in an unpredictable scenario?
<br />
<b>"Since I never got the blessings of Asmodeus like my brothers, and being the only duergar that doesn't understand why we are working for pitiful and weak humans. The pact my clan made with the bearded devil has loop holes, that is why I travel further into the dark lands to seek power or masters more worthy of my clan's services."</b></p>
<p>6. Possible compatibility issues, what personas would you get along with most and which wouldn't you?

<b>"If they pull there weight in the party then we should be fine. And if they prove themselves to not be worthy or useful to me, then I can always take them to the slave pens."</b> He thinks for a moment then his face flashes red with anger, <b>"UNLESS THERE FROM CHELIX! THEN I WILL GIVE THEM NO QUARTERS! HAVE I TOLD YOU HOW MUCH I HATE THOSE DEFILERS!"</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>I changed my class to Cavalier(Standard Bearer, Tactian)-1, followin the order of the dragon. The reason behind this is he was trained to protect the slaves when they traveled and all his insticts are to make sure no one kills or mortalily damages there property so it sticks with him even with groups that he doesn't own. Though the story basics are the same the class is a little differnt. Hope you enjoy my responses.</span></p>1. Why work with others?

</blockquote><p>1-Why not, their is no reason not to work with others. Only the powerful or the foolish think they can survive the underdark alone. Zhimon is currently netheir, making enemies out of would be allies is a deathwish in everyway.
<p>2-Surfacers know nothing of the underdark and are rarely prepared for its deadly depths. They dont last long without aid. Useful.</p>
<p>3-A drow priest will not risk his life for anything other then his faith. Asmodeus does not look well upon fools who throw away their lives for the weakness called compassion or any kind of failure for that matter. But being a priest he knows his pawns are not to be thrown away, if they break he fixes them unless their not worth the trouble.</p>
<p>4-Those races that are forced to use light in the underdark should do so carefully. But if their is no way around it then it must be done, anything that would seek light in the underdark would have found them anyways.</p>
<p>5-Survival, the death of my enemies, and gain. In that order, the continued survival of any allies increases my own chances of survival as well as assist in the downfall of said enemies.</p>
<p>6-That is dependent on the person. As long as no one is againt Asmodeus or attempting to challange Zhimon's station he does not have a real issue with them. Chaotic types may be a slight problem but otherwise nothing will be a big problem.</p>

Why work with others? </p>
<p>The primary reason at first would be mutual survival. Xzevvra knows what she can and cannot do, and surviving on her own, while she could be capable, would be easier if she had a group to work with. Beyond that it would depend on party dynamics.</p>
<p>2. Underdark dwellers opinion of surface dwellers and vice versa? </p>
<p>Enemies. That doesn't mean she won't believe she can use them. </p>
<p>3.Your Willingness to risk your life for a stranger. </p>
<p>She's not willing to. On the other hand if one of her group members does die, that reduces her own chance of survival. So will she come to someone's aid? Quite probable. </p>
<p>4. Visual challenges darkvision characters opinion of light dependent
<br />
and vise versa</p>
<p>Xzevvra prefers the dark. She's also intelligent enough to realize if her allies (even ones of necessity) can't see, that's a problem. She'll probably hang around the shadows though in such a case. </p>
<p>5. Your goals in an unpredictable scenario? </p>
<p>If possible, watch from the shadows, wait for an opportunity to take advantage of, then take it. </p>
<p>6 Possible compatibility issues, what personas would you get along with most and which wouldn't you?</p>
<p>Xzevvra's a survivalist. She will make an effort to get along with anyone as long as it suits her own survival. She does have a personality defect for a drow in that she is a tad too trusting of others (she's only mostly paranoid), the reason why her sisters decided to kill her. Paladin's and Elves would probably be the most difficult to work with. She doesn't take that much enjoyment out of rampant killing, for example, but is more than willing to do so if it's the easiest solution to a problem.</p>
<p>I don't plan on playing her as a chaotic evil sadistic murderer who delights in killing puppies. She is evil (probably not redeemable), but she'll adapt to a situation she's been thrust in to ensure her own survival.</p>1. Why work with others?

But I have one issue. Some of you are evil and I am curious to know how you will take to group dynamics. Evil charafters are unpredictable and can mess with how games run.</p>
<p>So what I'd like to see is a small party dynamics post from each of you.</p>

<br />
