    If that is the case, then there is no point in choosing either of those (Doctor and Blocker) roles, but that may just have been a red herring. Or perhaps there is a random element in the scum's roles, too. Not much point in discussing that, because there's no way to know. I agree with you, that a cop seems the most useful, as for the second role, I believe a tracker could probably tell us as much as a cop with the limited amount of people that are here. The random PRs will do their thing, the rest of the townies will be doing nothing, and the scum will be doing evil things. So, Private Bird, why is your speech so... odd? Oh, I just reread what the tracker in this case does, only gives you a name. In my day, trackers were much more useful, I can tell you that!

    Calamity remedies Avina or attacks the Knights.

    Guts ponders for a second after stowing away his purchase, then asks the bartender. "Any word anything major happening in Dastan or Xu?"

    "If you'd place me earlier in the battle order, I could." Calamity remedies Keliim.

    "Happy hour must get quite hectic. I think I'll buy a spare Shovel." Guts passes 10 coins to the Orc.

    Guts raised his signature eyebrow, and made a show of resting his hands on his hips, where his weapons were sheathed. "Do you always insult your customers, or just the ones that might actually make you some money? Melda. Now, what specialties have you got?"

    "Oh, seriously? Whoever programmed this bot should get a raise." Calamity repeats.
  8. Scubacarrot
    Calamity, once again, repeats.

    "Move your furniture into more sensible places" Guts growled, to no one in particular. Guts repeated the question, this time to the man himself. "How did you get here?"

    Theodore Dunn, present!

    I just picture a wedding for Heckz and Heckz, where the cake-toppers are two figurines of Heckz, he may kiss a mirror, and has a wonderful wedding night.

    "Is that the same bartender as in that backwater we picked up McColt that cheated me? How did he even get here?"
  14. Scubacarrot
    I meant as in QMs not always trying to one-up items they drop for their players.

    Don't let him fool you, they are totally evil. Just look at Hybros, he's practically a mass murderer. Just like most other heroes.

    "Supplies, supplies..." Guts mumbles, and walks towards the person most likely to sell supplies.
  17. Scubacarrot
    "If we hear anything, we'll send word. Now, let's resupply."

    Or people can just play the game without trying to break it.

    Not saying Soul-bound to the hero does not include dragons (I feel like it would), but can you even give permanent boosts to dragons?

    Interesting topic! A fact of the matter is that Lego at the moment is clearly making a lot of decisions based solely/mostly on profits, and I think this is a probable result of it. Friends is a theme that is marketed to girls, as a (kinda) new thing Lego tried, and was overwhelmingly successful (thanks in great part to the minidoll), so much, that in a lot of places a lot of Friends sets were completely sold out when the theme was first released. Clearly marketing things to girls and boys mostly separately is working out financially, that's why Friends continues and there is even a second theme marketed mostly towards girls, in Elves. Another thing you have to keep in mind is that most Lego is bought by parents, and the parents decide what is bought. A parent wants to be sure they don't give the wrong thing to the child, and are often not so concerned about issues like gender norms. The question if Lego has any social responsibility is bit difficult, I feel like they've made more questionable decisions fairly recently that may 'cheapen' the brand or the stellar reputation of Lego or what have you, but at the end of the day Lego is a business, with it's goal simply to make money, and not to hold up perceived 'social integrity' of the brand as perceived by probably a small number of people. Something that is kind of interesting I think is that the Minidolls and normal minifigures are clearly not compatible, and most sets except Creator and Basic with minifigures are now mostly marketed towards boys, even city seems to have mostly police and construction nowadays. If I were a kid, I think I'd feel the difference between the figures jarring, and would prefer not to use them interchangeably. This might lead to the fact that Lego gets a perhaps more split customerbase, with one group buying only Girl-marketed sets with minidolls, and one group never buying sets with minidolls, instead of the sets with minidolls serving as a kind of introduction to Lego as a building toy. All that said, as a guy, I still feel like Elves is one of the best themes Lego has had in a while.

    "Once more, I'd really appreciate it if my spells started working normally again. Not cool." Calamity shot an annoyed look at Avina, as if it were all her fault. Calamity attacks MK22B with her weapon from the front row, or Dispatcher with a darkness spell from the back row if the first is down.

    "The clans must have quite an interest in this outpost if they send Karstaal's second, Tarvalk's Daughter and a Dragoon here."
