Editing Character:Ernaldina Who Laughed (section)

== Commentary ==

Many games offer the lure that if you can imagine it, you can play it. I think only Heroquest truly delivers on this promise.  Ernaldine is an example of a character with no combat skills at all, who nonetheless would be extremely useful in any combat or conflict situation.  I can't see many other games where such a character would be viable, interesting, or even possible.  I like the idea that 'sheathe a sword with a word' can be a useful attribute in play.  The narrative mthod for rolling up characters is definitely best.
