Ah yes, so great at character building he gets the description wrong...
That's it Konrad, leave him alone! :sigh:
I honestly don't remember the initial description, so I couldn't be confused by it. No doubt his personal historians slipped in and wrote that part.I think the best characters are the ones who slip their molds and develop naturally - it seems Bernard did just that!
It makes sense though, and that's why Bernard works so well: Given the situation in that time period, I could easily see Bernard getting...enthusiastic about getting and maintaining control. Well done and certainly well deserved!

Ooh! I know this one!
I've actually been reading History of Baden this past week. I voted for you for the AARLand Choice AwAARds, because I'm exceptionally impressed by your depth and storytelling in this AAR.
I agree with Stnylan -- capturing a character is more than just a dramatic depiction. It's how you explain his motivations and how he fits into history, too.
Congratulations, Fulcrumvale! Great work.
