Hey Bryan! I suggested nothing of the sort, and never have, so don't tar me with that brush. If you actually read Borin's description in the Four Scrolls of Wisdom, he is much more than a sex maniac. But then again full rounded characterisation comes easily to my players, in fact Mark who generated the PC had never met a Yinkini, in play and had not read the books before he generated the characters - I never drive my players gaming decisions, they run the game. In fact Mark PLAYS a cat, he gets stuck in trees, he loiters around the grain bins, he hunts in the woods, he chases spirits around the Tula, he seduces the girls, fights with dogs, and wanders from trouble to trouble always managing to come out of it unscathed. I always allow my group to be devotees of their gods, because I know they will follow their gods paths through play, discovering new secrets and representing their gods through their actions.
I never suggest than anyone HAS to play the game the way I do, so don't get your shorts in a bunch :-) It is ONLY A GAME, so have fun, find your own interpretations. I do and will, and when I take it all too seriously (and lets face it I am a bit of a fanatic already) then I will take a step back and find the fun again.
Cheers Simon Bray
