    Which stats must I have to make Kerghan cancel his plan ? Now I am playing
    with a hobbit with 20 char, 20 itel, 20 will, and mastery of persuasion. Would it be enough ? :eek:

    No - you need 20 strength to intimidate him too.

    Don't forget about the 20 beauty. Kerghan has a thing for little boys and halflings.

    And you need to be naked. Utterly naked. And you need a naked Vollinger, a naked Tollo and a naked... What´s that other halfling guy called? the one on the bridge to Vendigroth?

    Never mind.
    But you need him too.

    And that would do it.

    No, you also have to be wielding Grack's Burdensom Staff and wearing the Ring of Shadows.

    yes, of course. I almost forgot that.

    And you need to be cursed by the lot of the gods, as well as the gypsy blood curse.

    And you neéd to be scarred, have a crippled arm and leg, and so on.
    Why, you might just ask. Here´s the answer:

    Kerghan is a sadist. He likes to watch those small naked halflings get hurt. He LOVES it.

    ....

    Don't forget the Dark Toll boots, cause he does ask you to take your shoes off when you apporach. Then comments on your fine choice of footwear.

    Kerghan's a sadistic bastard. That's why he's one of the best bad guys ever.

    *Plans to put One-Winged-Angel Sephiroth and Kerghan in the ring, then watch bishie-boy get eaten alive*

    the funny thing is that he´s not really evil. He just has his theory, that life is a suffering and yada yada yada...
    btw, his theories somehow reminds me of the filossofies of the Buddhists...

    But thats just it, anyone who is truly evil doesn't view themselves as such, they feel that they are doing the right thing. Because of this they can do some truly horrific things and feel no remorse because they feel that it is right.

    The first time I played Arcanum and saw Kerghan's slideshow and heard his theory, I fully agreed with him. I kinda sorta still do. It's really well said and - basically - it's true. The only thing that pisses me off is that more than half of your party starts kicking your arse when you agree to do as Kerghan says. And that Virgil starts whining like a little sissy girl. I really don't know why I never just kill that creep at the very beginning of the game, somewhre random at the crash site, for instance. :/

    I'd like to see a system implemented which allowed you to sell troublesome followers into slavery.

    How are we supposed to increase our number of posts then?

    You write? Wanna hop in our adventure or invent your own one?

    In my opinion, someone truly evil is evil because he likes to be. If you think you're doing the right thing, you're just confused.

    One Winged Angel Remix, Sephiroth's Theme

    Sephiroth has the cooler theme song, he would win.

    But if you're only doing it because you like to do it then it stems from vanity and thats not exactly all that evil.

    I go with Vyennas idea, it makes the most sense.
    But Kerghan is not evil, not in any anpect. I just don´t go with his idea.
    But then again, he has some more experiance than most of us (save Virgil, but I usually kill of that creep in the beginning for additional xp...)
    so he might just be right.

    And that would be horrofying.

    Huh? Enjoying watching someone squirm in pain stems from vanity? I don't get it. Care to explain?
