Yaaay! Group hugs! *Hugs everyone on thread*
Just thinking, if we do split (an idea which is currently making my inner DM cry
) how are we going to split it up? Looking at the group dynamic we've got:
The all-rounder/leader, with Aravi (who's also got soul-trap capability)
The heavy-hitter, with Kayla (who doesn't like Vera)
The archer, with Vera (who doesn't give a damn about Kayla)
The support caster, with Salyan
The offensive caster, with Darnand (and again, soul-trap)
So if we do split (and here I must point out that we've got a group who, when together, actually complement each other's strengths, weaknesses and specialisations really well), then Kayla would be going in the other group from Vera, and Aravi and Darnand would need to separate as well so that there isn't one group that can trap souls and one that can't.
So possibly it could be Aravi and Vera, and then Kayla and Darnand, and Salyan can go with either group which decides they need her most.
