Yeah hes catching a bit of a break and some flexibility involving availability rules. He has been playing the entire time, but didn't like the character type he made initially (aspected ice mage) and kept running up to people to engage them in hand to hand instead. I've got a soft spot for him because he does all the random, off-the-wall, stupid stuff that for some hilarious situations. So he'll be playing a troll that is part of a mercenary/hit squad made of trolls that had access to the higher grade stuff that the rest of the party already has access to. Plus, I can't wait to see what he does with a nearly unstoppable warmachine that can beat you to death with your own arm.
