That is true, one has to wonder about why those elves keep on getting it on with humans?
Of course, then what does this say about orcs? |

It seems to be inspired by the "213 Skippy Can No Longer Do In The Army" list. My fave of that list was "If the thought of doing something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume I am not allowed to do it." |

| Ye but if you take the time to go through and read the books in Morrowind and start quoting them you have alot of time on your hands. Iv'e read a couple of em but I never started quoting from them and I never knew someone that did. Im not sayin its bad Im just sayin you gotta alot of time on your hands. |

All books contain wisdom, real or virtual ones.... , but I think this thread was about Forgotten Realms, not Morrowind... ::Gazes to Alaundo and his LARGE staff:: |

Does anyone have any ideas on additions to this list? I know of one (from personal experience): I will not fire a magical arrow into combat until I am first sure of what it does.  |

| Always remember the gender of your character. If you're male and playing a female character don't forget you can't flirt with the elven ladies like you used to :) |
