Am I supposed to like the main companions?
I’m a huge Forgotten realms reader and have been since I was a kid, but I never got around to reading any of the Dragon Lance books until fairly recently.
Right now I’m on book one of The Dragonlance Chronicles, and I find it hard to believe these guys are or have ever been friends.
If I didn’t know any better, then I would say they really hate each others guts and they all hate themselves with the exception of Tass, who doesn’t really have any sort of personality that I can see yet.
They just got to the Darken Wood and like Raistlin is all “ these woods are fucked yo, I wouldn’t stray from the path” and every one of them told him to go fuck himself.
Like bruh, if one of the most powerful magic users in the verse says don’t stray from the path because you’ll get your shit pushed in, I’m gonna listen to the guy instead of calling him a turd that doesn’t know shit and wander off to do as I please.
I only know of Raistlin because of bits and pieces I picked up over the years, so he’s alright for me to understand, but the rest of the crew is just literally hard for me to believe that they ever ran together.
It seems like they would rather cut each others throats and the. Whoever is left would cut theirs to finish the damn thing.
Am I tripping or what?
