(It depends on the character.  Anwen in the Fallen could be treated like that, she's not worth much.  But Torene is far too complex and I could not leave her in another's hands.  My issue with the Fallen is that it should have been done with that last boss battle and I am totally at a loss as to why Billy let Mannimarco escape.  I'm sure he has his reasons, but I am finding it rather tedious.  No offense, Billy.

Heist and Fallen appear to have become intertwined --witness the appearance of J'Baad and the pipe in both--so Heist thereby becomes an extension of the Fallen or vice versa. Anneken and Brighid are pretty important to me and I'd rather not see them manipulated by anyone else. Rhiannon can bash and slash in anyone's control.

I still remember how Torene was controlled in The Rose by someone else in the Arena Battle and her actions were so totally out of character that I cringe every time I think about it. She was made to use weapons instead of magic. This was prior to Flame taking our magic away from us.

Daria and Dralnach are involved in a very delicate dance of interpersonal maneuverings which could not possibly be managed by anyone else. This was the reason for our long discussion the other night. It does not affect the rest of the group, but not even Billy could predict what Daria will do or say.

So, I very respectfully submit--and mean absolutely no offense--but I am not comfortable with that. I'd rather them sit out for a week than have any of my plans waylaid by someone else.)
