Re: (TFT) Playing in character

Yeah, the one female wizard I played was called Gwynedd the Mildly
Hysterical but she worked her way up to 11th level wizard so she was
generally competent in a battle.  :)

Now, a guy in one group brought in a new character that started off by
lieing to everybody.  That character was told to leave the party or be
beaten!
