Just some ideas for a mod around Witches :

Dynaheir taught a female PC some magic knowledges (PC is a mage, a sorcerer or a cleric/mage) wink.gif

In SoA Female PC become Minsc's Witch with some cool interactions. Not really a romance or possibility to reedem a evil PC indeed biggrin.gif

New abilities : herbal knowledges, witches fear and more. Some items too : Robe of Witch, Rasheman leather armor biggrin.gif

And more ...

In your opinion, this idea sounds interesting or not ? I wonder if it's possible to use some "Herbs and Potions" components ?

They know you by name, because there is a bounty on your head, not because you some great hero/ine of the godly proportions.

about these 'rules' or whatever


The 'rules' is what makes the FR world FR world. The characters belong to it. Or stick out like sore thumbs screaming that they are Mary-Sues.

If people want to have fun with magics and spells and herbs, there are plenty of ways to achieve that without putting the lore upside down and making the NPCs to become PC's indulgence slaves. The PC can be perfectly a Herbalist, or a Shaman or whatever kit that is legitimate and not out of place in the region, while Dynaheir can keep her unique and exotic flavor. Or one can perfectly design a TC that is set on the borders of Rashemen and Thay and one of the options is to be a Whychlaran.

By making PC a Wychlaran you both devalue Dynaheir and make the PC's background illegitimate, confusing and over the top. Because what are you going to do next? Make PC a lost SeaWolf Barbarian because you want Branwen to teach him the ways of the Moonshaes? Or a Thayvian nobleman so that Edwin could bring him to Zulkir?

Worry not about the arrow with your name on it, for there is but one. Instead, occupy yourself with the arrows addressed 'To Whom it May Concern'...
