Nate

I learned my lesson about herbs! Nate the orcish beastfighter had 25 strength, 26 dexterity, and 27 toughness as of about character level 10. He didn't really find much moss but there was a square of morgia and pepper petals right next to a naturally bottlenecked room of claw bugs... burp burp munch munch farm farm. He saved the puppy, he ate a blink dog, he saw lots of cool shops get generated. He did the first quest for the old dwarf and learned to read.
Nate had some scrolls in his backpack that weren't identified, and he also had a whole bunch of other random stuff he wanted identified. He had larger stacks of two of the types of scrolls, so he figured he'd try blessing and reading them. They'd probably be identify right?
No. Scroll of defense and scroll of darkness. Defense wasn't a bad thing.
This all happened right outside of Thrundarr's house. There's a particular square between where Thrundarr's two guards stand. That square will not abide player characters stepping on it in darkness. So when Nate came back after completing the next quest and tried to enter Thrundarr's chamber, not only was he rejected in the dark, he also lost track of which square he was on because he didn't understand the rejection mechanism. He ended up attacking a guard or something; an alarm gong rang.
Most of the dwarf town didn't care; they never noticed what happened in the dark. But Waldenbrook was paying attention. He also had about ten attacks for everything my very very fast beastfighter character did... poor Nate.
Beastfighters are fun though! I'm going to have to try another soon.
