Against the rules?

<< < (2/4) > >>

Zakky:
Why was Tom against the idea? Did something happen around the time he decided against it?

Anaris:
Basically, that high nobility—which all of our non-adventurer characters are—would not have lowered themselves to such things. Some lesser nobility might have, but not the upper echelons.

Zakky:
Aren't knights pretty much lesser nobility? I wouldn't consider any non-landed noble to be high nobility. Unless you think all playable nobles should be the firstborn... Even sons of some kings ran mercenary companies.

I mean I see how allowing people to make a mercenary guild may lead to people forming a clan which is frowned upon but I don't see any harm in people making another Darka.

Anaris:
There's a big difference between running a mercenary company, and being a foot commander in a mercenary company.

Every noble in BattleMaster is considered to be high nobility, the cream of the crop, the people to know.

Look at it this way: The difference between the high nobility—the player characters—and the lesser nobility—part of the faceless masses of NPCs—is that no one would ever even think it possible that an NPC could be elected Ruler. Just as no one would ever think it possible that a lesser noble could be King.

That is a good way of putting it.

So if someone tries to recreate Darka, you would be against it these days right?
