The Rise of the Runelords Sajan doesn't use weapons. I think that might be the only one, but since it was the first Sajan, it just kinda sticks in people mind.

Btw, I have family visiting this weekend. Posting will be a little limited through Monday but I'll do my best to keep up.
My kid starts her week-long spring break today and we are going to visit Grandma. I'll still be able to post but likely with reduced frequency until after April 13. I appreciate your understanding.
Yay, have fun!

Upgrades:
(If Merisiel is now tier 5)
Presuming neither of the tier 5 upgrades received, fill new Ally Slot with tier 3 Black Arrow Ranger and skip any other upgrades.
Confirming that Merisiel would have tiered up to 5 at the end of the previous scenario, so this last one was her first xp at tier 5 (which I think means she may be finally caught up with everyone else after missing several scenarios last fall).
Using the Item 5 upgrade to replace Mask of Stolen Mien with Vestments of False Faith.
Filling new empty Ally Slot with Black Arrow Ranger.
