Well, griplin was one of my dawnies...so many of you know me :P
Griplin was agressive...and he was hounded for it. He helped out so many people but the few times he took his anger out on evils he was hounded. Masters hunted him and cried to the dawn leaders, both imms and apostles. Empire cried about it, battle even cried about it. Plain and simple, griplin was screwed by that. Were is a complicated char that i'd rolled i might have been upset, but i figured i wasn't missing out on much and let things go where they would.(Raisa wasn't very nice about it, but then...i was an ass to her and i apologize) My point is that i was aggro, and griplin was tough, Majzetsch, Daelaanavyr...you have both seen me fight...he was a tough one, but in the end i got screwed for ever attacking anyone.
Vimal, buddy, pal...remember when you came after me and i cried out for help? It was because i couldn't figure out what the hell i should be doing because you attacked me and i could have killed you but i was afraid of the consequences because i'd just joined the dawn a few minutes before.
So what do i do? I flee, come back and hit you...not realizing you are already in a fight with another. My mistake but i fled from the fight as soon as i knew. Regardless, i took shit for it. It's difficult, as i'm sure many know, to change your image in the eye of any theran :) Once someone has an opinion of you...it tends to, though not always, stick. Oh well....some times you win...i usually don't :) Night all, i'm outta here!
