Q: Are you worried at all that a character that specializes in traps will be more indirect and passive, and much less exciting than the Druid?
A: That's true; and we certainly don't want to make her a weaker character. Plus, there's a difference between being a powerful character -- that is, being able to kill monsters easily -- and being an interesting character with cool abilities. And that's really what we're after, a character with powerful yet interesting combat. We're still experimenting right now. As a matter of fact, we're working on ideas today that we just came up with yesterday, and we'll probably be doing that for a while. We're trying to break it up so she's not just a barbarian with traps. We are working on her style and giving her things to do.
