"This heaven in which dwell the twelve gods resolves itself into twelve different configurations, and presently becomes the Ram. So whosoever is born under this sign has many flocks and herds and much wool, a hard head into the bargain, a shameless brow and a sharp horn. Most of your schoolmen and pettifoggers are born under this sign... Next the whole sky becomes Bull; then are born obstinate fellows and neatherds and such as think of nothing but filling their own bellies. Under the Twins are born horses in a pair, oxen in a yoke, men blessed with a sturdy brace of testicles, all who manage to keep in with both sides. I was born under the Crab myself. Wherefore I stand on many feet, and have many possessions both by sea and land; for the Crab is equally adapted to either element. And this is why I never put anything on that sign, so as not to eclipse my horoscope. Under the Lion are born great eaters and wasters, and all who love to domineer; under the Virgin, women and runaways and jailbirds; under the Scales, butchers and perfumers and all retail traders; under the Scorpion, poisoners and cutthroats; under the Archer, squint-eyed folks, who look at the greens and whip off with the bacon; under Capricorn, the 'horny-handed sons of toil'; under Aquarius or the Waterman, innkeepers and pumpkin-heads; under Pisces, or the Fishes, fine cooks and fine talkers. Thus the world goes round like a mill, and is for ever at some mischief, whether making men or marring them.. This is the theme of my underground complex. Stuffed full with puzzles and items, you may use this however you want, that is if you have a place for it. I feel obliged to give some sort of help with this because, mainly, that guide on billboard FX. (I'll be starting work on those designs soon BTW) So here I sit, putting details together, accentuating doors.... I'll post some screenshots soon, maybe tomorrow, enjoy! (Kupo?)

Haven't quite read this italics fully have I? Please note that I copied and pasted quickly from wikipedia to get a feel for what I was making. I'll take more care to read them through carefully before applying them to a post, the gemini part being an example Embarassed

or maybe it's just me. Never mind![/quote]

Those are interesting excerpts Zodiac. I'm glad you've taken an interest in offering some content for Rhydin. As I've mention to others, I see what I can fit in but I can't make any promises. I did have a thought about including a zodiac-like symbol system similar to what the NWN2 OC campaign had for character backgrounds. .. Like instead of being a Flirt,. or Bully, .... They can choose to be a sign that would grant them a few skill points.

Thanks, I appreciate your suppport of my idea. Unfortunately, I haven't made any progress on signs. ( I don't think I have it in me!) And to cap it off, something messed up all my previous mods! I had to tip the lot in the bin, as it were. I'll have to start from the drawing board again. Sad

. Never mind, there were some faults with it anyway. I'm starting to design a new mod and moving into ruin building, I'm going to start drawing up some interiors and add some dark elements to the histories of the places. If there's any screenshots you like, then maybe I can build a refined area to suit your purposes. If I haven't got the right feel of Rhydin then no worries as I will still have some lovely areas.
