A question to ponder:

Post by KR »

I just wanted a topic that's not related to porn episodes or Snorbin, so...

Would Fred make a good king? A lot of the women he meets are princesses, so it's fairly safe to assume that it's very possible that Fred would end up becoming king of something or other (or in Astra's case at least royal consort) after a certain point. On the one hand, he has a lot of integrity. On the other hand, he's not very good at diplomacy and he tends to deal with complications in direct, blunt ways that often involve hacking with a sword. This is not good when you're dealing with international politics. Conan (who is somewhat similar) made a good king in Robert E. Howard's stories, but Conan is capable of a certain low cunning which Fred is less prone to.

Thoughts?

Let's give in to the madness, my fellow Snorbins

I think Fred MIGHT make a good Snorbin if those nipples of his weren't QUITE so delightful, if ya know what I mean, you silly Snorbin fellows.

JH has already asked you nicely to quit behaving like a child. Nobody's laughing. You're welcome to contribute to the story in a MEANINGFUL way, but you're obnoxious postings aren't earning you anyone's favor.

PLEASE stop.

And please don't pretend to be somebody else. It's not fooling anyone, and it isn't clever or amusing.

As to Fred as king, I think a lot might depend on the quality of his advisors.

King Fred would probably choose Reaibn, Velus and Belboz as his survivors.

Reaibn would go mad with power, Velus would be bored and Belboz would turn the east wing into a puppy.

I would go mad with power. It would be great.

There's already at least one long thread where you did exactly that. If you search on "Reaibn" you should find it easily enough.

Excellent. Oh, btw, sorry for not authoring for a while. I am back to stay. Have done several posts today already. Always in my beloved staircase storyline, of course. ;)
