Advise me, gentle readers.
Nov. 29th, 2009 05:40 pmIt's entirely possible some of you have been paying attention to what mid!Felix has been up to. The next time I bring him in, it will probably be from the Lamakan Desert, or immediately after. Said desert is canonically very hot. It's also described as "evil", but that doesn't seem to come to anything. Point is.
Felix is traveling with a group consisting of himself (a novice Earth Adept), his sister Jenna (a novice Fire Adept), Kraden (an old man with no elemental abilities), Alex (an experienced and creative Water Adept), Saturos, and Menardi (both experienced Fire Adepts). Those last two are from a people who are "supposed to be immune to the cold", which many fans take as implying they retain body heat very well. There's no canonical information about how they get through, merely a speculation - by a knowledgeable NPC, but still speculation - that Saturos and Menardi can use their abilities to "suppress the heat as they cross."
So. My question. Should I OOM this, and figure out some plausible way for that to work, or should I handwave it?
