Towards the end of last game session, while pondering what to do with my 3 points, I jokingly mentioned 'Squirrels' as a potential secondary domain.
well, on my way back from the supermarket with Daniel, I was listening to 'Wait Wait Don't Tell Me,' and NPR news-quiz show. one of the items mentioned was a story about how a squirrel led police in south London to a thief's stash of stolen crockery. it got their attention running for a bit and looking back to make sure they were following. eventually leading them to a tree in which was stashed with the booty.
("a squirrel! ha ha ha ha ha" commented Daniel upon hearing this.)
seems an awefully intelligent thing for a squirrel to be doing.
perhaps it's a sign.
(i'll try to hunt down the actual story for more detail, in case anyone actually cares.)
followup... permalink? we don't need no stinkin' permalink. well, here it is.
it has been suggested that I could spend some of my character points on a secondary domain. I've given it some cursory thought, and trying to keep the domains in a theme, such as Bill has, I am considering the domain of Vehicles, or the Domain of Injuries.
Vehicles can certainly be useful... need to get to the dock, well here's a car just waiting for us. damn shame we can't drive, though.
Injuries has other obvious uses, though potentially munchkin. being chased, broken leg. however, we haven't had any explicitly combat scenes, so maybe it wouldn't be so abused.
an alternate thought I had was that I've gotten just as much usefulness out of the Chancel, so perhaps simply cranking up my Realm, or getting Realm oriented gifts.
thoughts?
