Sara, I mean, I could use death strikes, but I want people to stop me. (I meant can Eld prevent the elf from taking that much damage.)

If I remember right it was like only you and me? I don't remember what we were fighting but I remember that being a defining moment for our character's relationships.
Kathryn has and always will use a long sword. I've pansied out a bit in my old age and don't wear skirts anymore though. Too hard with armor ;)

Asking whether Eld can prevent someone from taking that much damage (assuming you'd live long enough to dish it out against Nalfein), is meta-gaming. It's using out of game information for in-game stuff. Attacking him only when you know other people are around that could save him would also be meta-gaming.

It is really nice of you that you're concerned for your fellow player, but he knew that he stood a high chance of getting killed by another player. If that's how the RP plays out, it's how it plays out.

It's not meta-gaming if I don't use the information in game, I just wanted to know. :)

Oh lawd, I can only imagine how Flamyras, let alone my 'other' character, would react. I haven't had a good track record with drow, although, i still laugh whenever I remember the 3 elves in that hero training cave...

I won't tell you yes or no, but if you really don't know then you have a long way to come as a mage yet, young padawan. :)
