It\\\'s still who they are, how they\\\'ve been raised, and what informs their decisions. And you want me to quote? \\\'\\\'\\\"Mind-bogglingly stupid.\\\"\\\'\\\' It\\\'s right up there.

That \\\'\\\'is\\\'\\\' what I\\\'ve been arguing. That was why I removed the entry. Because it makes out as though she didn\\\'t question anything about Erimond, as though he\\\'d been having her mages make silly faces behind her back, as if she was totally aware there was a weird misshapen tall guy giving Erimond his orders and fine with it. \\\'\\\'She did. He wasn\\\'t. She wasn\\\'t.\\\'\\\' To say so is straight up \\\'\\\'lying\\\'\\\' to make her sound like a complete idiot. Erimond didn\\\'t get fed up with her \\\"hem-hawing,\\\" he tried to cut his losses by killing Clarel and the Herald. The entry, as it was, smacked of \\\"This character is stupid because they were unaware of everything the audience is aware of!\\\"

She wasn\\\'t even binding the mages personally. They bound themselves on her orders.

EDIT: Let me offer an alternative phrasing of the example: \\\"Even without the benefit of hindsight, accepting the help of a Tevinter magister when apparently freely offered is very unwise.\\\" It\\\'s more concise, it covers whatever permutation or interpretation of the arc a player might have, and it doesn\\\'t throw around all that hyperbole. The rest of the character entry covers her motivations and the specifics well enough. Is that acceptable?

EDIT: Okay, let me offer an alternative phrasing of the example: \\\"Even without the benefit of hindsight, accepting the help of a Tevinter magister when apparently freely offered is very unwise.\\\" It isn\\\'t a paragraph long or so very specific, and it explains her error perfectly well.
