Yes I know some say rangers are the mix but they are forrest oriented. Just think it would be nice to have a class say Explorers who have learned magic and fighting from thier travels. I don't count shamans paladins and such as they derive thier power from the Gods. And *gasp* yes some wish to draw from power and not beg the gods to give it to them

    - I think people who play bards like warriors with songs should be shot, they're a roleplaying class and if you don't do something artsy you're wasting the class. nt Imbrogno 11:41:50 8/8/2000 (6)

        Heh, I remember them because I was constantly fighting them. I think it was Ingvar that said Arlian had no verbal skills. nt Imbrogno 14:04:30 8/8/2000 (0)
