She says she's not, but so does Mat. nossy Send a noteboard - 01/10/2009 10:34:04 PM
She says so herself, if I recall correctly. She's more like the rogue adventurer type.

She does quite well running an army. Just because she doesn't feel "heroic" doesn't mean her skill set has really changed. RJ makes it pretty obv that the best heroes are just those doing what they think they have to.

Good points! Also, these "generals" haven't actually fielded any troops beetnemesis - 01/10/2009 11:23:40 PM 803 Views

Mat's not a soldier, either - he's a general RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/10/2009 10:51:29 PM 878 Views
Right, which was what we were discussing at first. nossy - 02/10/2009 04:13:43 PM 803 Views
Yeah, I'm supporting your point about them both being generals RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/10/2009 06:10:31 PM 837 Views
