It's not even about lying or intending to manipulate people so much. When you speak whatever's on your mind or let your feelings motivate your responses all the time, people can easily provoke you into doing or saying something that winds up against your best interests. Allison has that problem. Rabisu does too, though he struggles against it because he's seen how this trait can be the downfall of the great and powerful.

I've never been very good at lying or manipulating people... :'(

Its just my honest heart and pureness... :-[
KK does it just fine. Its more that you are emotional, contradictory,  and/or insulting at times. That is not an insult just my thoughts on your character downfalls.

Yes, you are correct. I believe a good character should have downfalls. For example I am watching Akira Kurosawa 'RAN' right now. Its a fairly good study of characters with downfall. I believe that BM is only interesting if it is not purely played as a game but as a story and sometimes that means playing a certain way not tried before. Like today I was playing Fallout 2 and rolled up a pure melee character who only used his fists. Just because I have never played that way before. Back to BM, I dont think anyone in Asylon wants to be the last realm standing out of pure boredom. We will continue to play in a dramatic way, we are not worried or particularly care if all of SA comes to fight us. We are used to it. And guaranteed we will win this war.  8)

LOL

This is Battlemaster bro.

It's impossible to play without becoming a grade-a manipulator, and Glaumring is a pretty good one.

There is a difference between arrogance and confidence. Glaumring has well placed confidence, since he actually has an inkling of what Aurvandil is planning and the size of the army we are about to raise. And that is without even knowing what's going to happen on the eastern front. It would be arrogant to assume Aurvandil won't win.

I await your Aurvandil-Luria Nova-Swordfell-Farronite Republic-Asylon-Iashalur-Libero-Zuma coalition.

From what little I do know, I am very interested to see this as well.

I think most of us in the Moot pretty much get that, after we've realized that northern realms basically cannot help us, we're pretty much screwed.
