I'm in the process of character generation. In real life and in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn. This woman looks strong and confident enough for me:
"Her name could be Klaw or something..."
"Sure. Whatever you want," says my partner, Brainstorm.
"Uh, I can't think of anything."
We both sit in silence and sip our cups of chamomile tea. Drinking chamomile tea is our ritual. It helps us manage anxieties we have about ourselves, our fears, and the world we live in. The tea itself is not a miracle herb that instantly extinguishes heart palpitations, depression, or lethargy; but the process is soothing. Boiling the water on the stove, clearing off the table, setting the tea cups and saucers in place, jumping at the whistle of the tea pot, pouring the boiled water on bags of dried chamomile flowers and gratefully inhaling the steam while the tea steeps...by the first sip I'm calm and ready to stand firm again.
"What about chamomile?"
"That has a nice ring to it. And if I change the lettering to that medieval warrior style, all improper like and....Yeah!"
Kamumil.
