Hello, Heroes!

I find myself in a bit of a situation here. See, I've recently visited the city of Raseir. Used to be a really nice place, from what I've heard, though it's been going through tough times. Anyways, the locals just had sort of a... revolution, I think? Long story short, they managed to bring down some really, really bad guys who were making life horrible for everyone, like we're talking about deportation of a whole race, tortures, don't even let me start about rights of women!

I'm really happy that the people of Raseir put an end to it all. But back to my situation. There's this really cool guy, a Liontaur, I think? Never met anyone like him before. A real hero, too. Tough and strong, but also gentle and kind and humble. So, this guy said that he wanted to give me a gift - his magic sword, and to make me a Paladin.

From what I understand, Paladins are considered heroes among heroes, looking for evil everywhere and protecting people from that evil, dealing with threats like real demons. A little bit more serious than what I'm used to, frankly. Obviously I'm very flattered. Buuuut.

Like I said, it's all tied to this magic sword. And I'm not a sword person, at all. I've never owned a sword! I know the theory, but I have absolutely no swordfighting experience!

Should I say "yes"? Or should I be honest and explain that it's a huge honour (it is!) but I'm pretty sure that it will be better for everyone if he keeps the sword and uses it for all those great things he does, and I'll stick to what I'm good at?

HELP!

Laurana

A commissioned portrait of my favourite NPC, princess Laurana of Qualinesti. She played an important part in our Dragonlance campaign, though not exactly the one suggested by the modules - less Golden General, more "elven teenager tries to figure out what's wrong with her and why growing up is so complicated".

For some reason, I never saw any picture of Laurana drawn the way she was originally described in Dragons of Flame - a bright-eyed, dark-skinned beauty.

So I gave money to a human artist, and they made this.

Please support your friends the artists.
