OK, two things to note:

first of all, Gregor is, I am sorry, a major NPC in this campaign. no more details will be given

so you should not give him personality and appearances. it is ok to say you find a servant in the dark room, but it is not OK to say you found the lord himself. the man is a fighter that controls 3000 crown guards, who personaly ended the wars with the Nightstalkers... [img]smile.gif[/img] how can he be trapped like a whimp?

second. you are free to dectates what an emeny does as long as your action makes sense

always remember your enemy is not stupid (exludes cases such as goblins, orcs, and ogres etc) a move you enticipate will most likely be thought of by your enemy, especially when you are at such a low (relatively say) level. don't expect you can "cut down one enemy, then back hand cut another in half..." it won't happen. and lets not say those enemies that you are fighting against are almost the same level with you.

and an example from Lucre about how he dealt with the mage. he cut the mage's necklace, and that turns off the mage's power... well, nope. lets not forget any mage can cast web spell, without any power source. and IF that necklace is his power resource, woudl you think he'd wear it out so boldly? he'd go to great length to hide it [img]smile.gif[/img] make sense here?

as to contradiction itself, I'll learn to do something about it

for example, it might be helpful if I tell you:
the masked leader is immune to pain.

then leave the roleplay to yourself completely. this way, I dont have to insist too much control on the your character.

but one thing bare in mind, unless you have a brilliant roleplay idea, just give your choice/action, instead of result. Dundee, you had done a great job on this so far.

and what is a great roleplay idea? it is up to you to find the balance as where to draw the line. I mostly welcome ANY attempt at roleplaying.
