Very tentative plotting

Whooo boy.

Giles, as some of you know, is recovering his sight - he can currently distinguish vague silhouettes, and probably a little more than that by the time the announcement goes out.

Otherwise, he'll be making a lot of use of his oversensitive hearing, and might still be vulnerable to traps and natural hazards.

He'd probably be helpful detecting ambushes, he's good at that.

In hand to hand, he should be effective again. He won't get in anyone's way in a fight, as the silhouettes of Third Party fighters and Shift Hunters will be pretty easy to distinguish from villagers. And, as anyone who's watched the show knows, Giles is good to have on your side in a fight.

As far as Filial Magic goes, he's effective with Kipinn and Nala, and has started learning from Tsinku. The powercap relase will let him play a little more with magic from home. Barrier spells and things that can possibly mess with the Third Party...yeah. Offensive magic is still a huge drain, though, although I have a possible plan for that.

I have the "The Magic Box" RPG supplement for spell lists, if anyone's curious.

Giles can fight long range and close range, although he'll be wary of using any kind of long range weapon.
