Seriously though to back up the decision which everyone's made in the last day or so. Yahoo was cheap and a good emergency choice. But gives you banners and I have got two copies of everything people sent through that list. All hail Crashbox (until the owner's decide that they want to make money from their servers, mind you if they were serious about cash they'd be running pay porn sites I suppose) Just my half lunar on commercialisation of roleplaying. Of course there was always GW behind White Dwarf but it was only when WD was in the mid-90's (issue numbers) that GW realised what a splendid monopoly they had. PS: The White Dwarf where GW broke the news of WH40K's release was no. 93 which was also the very first copy I bought. It's probably all my fault.

She is also revered as the Nursemaid, Protector of Children. Cult in the World Faellae is one of the many daughters of Naharra and Fanthros, charged by her parents with the care of both her younger siblings and the herd animals kept by the tribe. Depicted as a young chenxa filly bearing an ornate crook of yarrowood, her coloration varies to match that of the tribe that worships her. She is said to teach shepherds the secret languages of their beasts, so that they might better understand their charges and be better able to spot sickness or danger. Faellae's shamans celebrate her High Holy Day on the 1st of Readying, and celebrate minor holidays honoring the first birth (chenxa or herd beast) of each year. Chenxa children born under such auspices are always cultivated by the tribe's shaman for advancement in the cult, but there is no requirement that the youngster must comply. Shrines to Faellae are simple affairs, typically the shaman's crook is the only icon required, placed at the center of a pattern of stones in an open field. Her shamans may be of either sex, but must wear their hair as long as possible and commonly arrange both tail and mane in complex braids, often accented by flowers. Lay Membership Requirements: Anyone is welcome in the cult, but it naturally appeals mostly to those charged with watching over the tribe's animals and children. Skills taught by the cult include Dance, Sing, Speak Languages, Craft (flowers, hair, wood), First Aid, Lores (animal, chenxa, plant, world), Play Instrument, Listen, Scan, Scent/Taste, Track, Ceremony, Sling attack, and Staff attack/parry. Initiate Membership Requirements: Standard. Initiates of the cult are taught the cult special skill Understand Beast Speech. Understand Beast Speech (Perception (00)) This perception skill allows it's user to perceive and interpret warning signs, movements, odors, and other gestures made by herd beasts. Speaking to animals is not possible with this skill. Spirit Magic: Most spirit magic is available from the shamans of this cult, but they commonly only teach the following: Admonish, Birth Song, Farsee, Heal, and Zephyr Stone. Priesthood / Shamans Requirements: Standard for shamans. Known as the Faehai (Gentle-eyed), shamans of this cult are nonetheless formidable if faced with the defense of their charges. When not involved in watching over their flocks, the shamans of this cult teach the children of the tribe. Virtues for Faellae include Altruistic, Energetic, Joyous, and Loyal. Common Divine Magic: Call Followers, Command Cult Spirit (watchers), Extension, Find (herd animal), Heal Wound, Initiate, Sanctify, Spellteaching, Warding, Worship Faellae. Special Divine Magic: Attract Attention, Bless Animals, Call (herd animal), Faellae's Milk, Speak with (herd animal). Shamanic Taboos No Magic Attack Associated Gods None ***** Faellae's Milk 1 Point Self, Temporal (1 Day), Stackable, Reusable This spell causes the caster's mammary glands to swell with milk (even if the caster is male), providing enough sustenance for one herd animal or orphaned child for one day.
