Re: Looking VOLUNTEERS for a Project.
I'd have to dig up my books (they're deep in storage), but I just can't see myself (if I'm really being honest) as more than a wilderness scout with a penchant and talent for fighting. I'm such a "jack of all trades" that nothing really seems to fit. I'd have moderately high physical stats...

Re: The Lords of Magic
I remember that the class write ups seemed to imply that those three classes derive some of their power from the Three themselves.
Also...don't the Automatons require some PPE and/or MDC from the Three at activation?

A true god doesn't stick around to fight by himself, unless they're facing another god. Gods use minions and pawns to fight.
