Keldorn: Why did you involve me in your modding stuff, Sikret? You know that my duties in the Order do not leave much free time for me.

Sikret: I know Keldorn, and I apologize. But there is something I need to consult with you about.

Keldorn: Very well, say what you must and I will consider it and will give you my humble opinion.

Sikret: I have successfully implemented a new feature to Improved Anvil (v4.3) and I need your opinion to decide whether to actually add it to the next version of the mod or just forget and omit it.

Keldorn: Athkatla is a more dangerous place since the time you appeared. This much is certain.

Sikret: Thanks for the compliments, Keldorn!

Keldorn: I certainly didn't mean it to be a compliment. Now go on and tell me what you have in mind.

Sikret: The new feature is surely a surprise for you, but I'm not sure if players will take it as good news or bad news. The novelty is this: Enemy evil clerics will use their ability to turn undead if they see you or any other paladin in the party. (Of course, they will use it if they see summoned undead creatures, too)

Keldorn: Aye, this is indeed a surprise and dire news.

Sikret: I guessed so and that's why I seek your opinion about it. Many players love to play with you, not only for role playing factors, but also for the fact that your powerful dispel magic spell can be most useful in IA's battles. The problem with the new feature is that you will be in danger if high level enemy clerics see you in the party.

Keldorn: You should know very well that a devoted old paladin such as me is not afraid of danger.

Sikret: I know this very well, Keldorn! But since I don't want to add such a dangerous thing for paladins to the game without letting you know about it and without giving you the oppotunity to comment on it, I thought that it would be a good idea to ask you beforehand.

Keldorn: I think it's better to leave the decision to our leader, the well known Bhaalspawn to decide whether he wants to face such powerful enemy clerics or not. Let him express his opinion as well.

Sikret: Great suggestion! This topic is open for the Bhaalspawn to say his/her words.

Keldorn: Wait a minute, torturer!

Sikret: Yes?

Keldorn: Why don't you teach Cromwell to do something with my armor? Perhaps he can add immunity to turn undead to it.

Sikret: <Sigh>, even you, Keldorn?

Actually Sikret doesn't have to change anything (except if he decides to make evil Clerics to damage Paladins).

Evil Clerics have already this ability in the game: Viccy and Keldorn tongue.gif

Yes, without the extra damage (which was a wrong idea from the beginning), it's much easier to add this feature to the mod.

Thanks again for the helpful comments, everyone.
