Character Collections: Funded on Day One!
Time to put on that pretty floral bonnet and party. Hopefully I won’t end up married to a psychotic redhead. My current mostly-stable redheaded wife would not be amused.
It’s no secret. Ever since I read Elisabeth Moon’s The Deed of Paksenarrion, I’ve loved playing paladins. +Rob Conley did me a favor and quoted the best description from the book in a prior blog post: Paraphrased From page 579 of the Trade Paperback the Deed of Paksenarrion.
