Still trying to hammer out Carrog's Brian Blessed-ness. I think I've got the loud part down, and there's little question that he can ham things up when he wants to- but I also want to try and temper that a bit. Mr. Blessed can get going on a blue streak if he's frustrated with something, and I've no idea what he's like when he gets actually angry, such as in this situation.
And then there's the part in my head reminding me that he's not just a Valorous Bard, he's also supposed to be an Inspiring Warlord. It's difficult to inspire your comrades to fight on, or fight harder, when you're just the comic relief. Which is partially why I made a point of the change in his attitude and competency when he confronted the wizard. But I also don't want that to end up being a lightswitch sort of thing or resembling multiple personalities, where it's as if there's two separate characters involved.
