  • The inability to deal with the donor using established convention by the magical bourgeoisie probably opens up our favorite slightly problematic wizard with unusually catholic sympathies to a class based reading of the work.

    As the only other private wizard fan I’ve met here, how do you personally reconcile the, uh, chauvinistic trends within the series with (IMO at least) clearly well-meaning and (not if, the “and” is clear) ignorant nature of the authors views.

    Can’t wait for the WWE book and evil bob book

    My ideals are that one should always be as honest as possible and appropriate within the context. Kant can fuck off, I’m not telling the killer where the person is hiding. Depending on the context that may mean lying, a weaselly answer that’s not a lie, or simply not answering.

    That being said I also lie a lot because the personal cost of being truly honest all the time is very high in a society which accepts a certain level of dishonesty. I called in sick yesterday, I was hungover from my uncles birthday. If I worked in a coop rather than retail I would have been honest because the stakes are different.

    I guess we might have to differentiate between “lies that are valid under capitalism” and “lying as whole”.

    I don’t break oaths though.

    That sounds awesome. Persistent worlds are really fun and give a sense of history to the campaign. Hell, a dude made a best selling fantasy series based off of super long running one he ran while doing his PhD or something.

    If there are open slots and scheduling works out, I’d be very down to participate when you start it up.

    I’ve had a muscle wizard theorycraft I’ve been sitting on for years now because I can never get a game going without being the DM.
