Rangering!, Friday, Period Five [ 05/29 ].

"I don't know if you noticed," said Minsc, addressing the class without his usual business-like (business-like for Minsc, anyway) manner, "but there are alligators! Shooting goldfish! We would all be horrible rangers indeed if all we did was sit on our butts and have a class while there were alligators shooting goldfish! So I shall make this quick, and then you are all to go out there and kick butt! I know that Boo and I will be!"

"So. Quick. As protectors of goodness, a ranger typically focuses a great deal of his energies into being very good at destroying one particular type of bad-doer, especially if they are common to marauding their homes! This allows you to gain a bonus to your roll strike them even better, though the careful study of what makes that creature tick...and stop ticking! We not only specialize on weapons, but also on enemies!"

"Here is a very nice list of common enemies favoured by rangers in my homeland of Faerûn! Look them over, pick one that you might be interested in choosing for your favoured enemy, and then spend the next week studying that enemy! Because that is the key! To know a bad guy is to know it's weaknesses and that is how a ranger gets bonus rolls fights them better! Research well! Whatever you pick, you will be going up against next week!"

"And, should there be a favoured enemy that you have already from your homework, you are welcome to pick one of those, too, especially if it will be more helpful to you in buttkicking later!"

"Now! Questions? No? Take a pick and get out of here! I want to hear about all the alligator butt you have kicked!"


[[ OCD on the way just so happens happens to have goldfish-shooting gators as its favoured enemy! Go fig. ]]

"Dinner and a fight?" This prospect shouldn't make anyone grin like a dork, and yet there Tahiri was, doing just that. "You really know how to do these things right, don't you?"

The sad thing was that she wasn't being sarcastic.

"I ordered in the alligators just for you," he completely made up.

"Nice touch." Tahiri didn't believe him at all, of course, but she had to say it. "I think that might make you the best boyfriend ever."

"I've been working on it," Ben said modestly.

"Dork," Tahiri told him. "So, weapons locker and then town?"
