QUOTE (Zhan Shi)
Near the end of the Second Age, the Great Dragons "gifted" certain elves with the immortality gene, presumably via some form of unknown metamagic. The idea was that the IEs would rule in the GDs stead. Along comes the Fourth Age. The dragons wake up, and receive a big middle finger from the IEs. A war ensues, and eventually a truce is declared. At least some of the first IEs were magically bound to their dragon masters, in a manner similar to created drakes. Various info on the subject is scattered across Prelude to War, Blood Wood, Barsaive at War, The Book of Dragons, Mists of Betrayal, and the Dragonheart trilogy.

Got any notes left on that sequel to Harlequin?

. . if you're carefull and good, half the world will belong to you in no time(for you) . . why KILL someone? just wait and watch them die on their own . .

You all forget that all the people you're trying to take control of the world from are just like you - they don't die either. And they have long bank accounts, just like you. And if any of you get exposed, there will be open revolt amongst the pawns.

Makes it interesting.


As for my campaigns, there are immortals of all races - Norse dwarves, leprechauns, even humans. The dwarves have less patience and less finesse than most, and constantly run afoul of the elves and dragons.

...your only immortal as long as long as that bullet (or Tungsten Rod/Bovine from orbit) with your name on it doesn't find you. :grinbig:

Yeah, something about Ragnarok. The dragons don't want them bringing about the end-times. Willpower translates to stubborness, not patience, in this case.
