If you don't like it, you don't like it. However, I do think that the War of Souls trilogy keeps getting better the further you read it, so my suggestion would be for you to keep reading.
Point being...it does get better and I, therefore, urge you to continue reading.
Book two literally made me hurl my copy into the corner of my room.
Book three made me want to play in a current age dragonlance campaign more than anything ever, and reinvigorated my love for the setting.
stick with it =)
As for Mina, she reminded me of Joan of Arc as presented in the film “The Messenger”, except evil, of course.
But in all fairness I don’t think Mina was anywhere near as horrible as Silvanoshei. I’ve never disliked a fictional character as much as him.
But.
We've heard this all before. So i'll just shut up now. *scuttles off into a corner to finish working on his campaign*
Now. I do like the new setting. The mystic is great. That new campaign i'm working on, though it isn't Dragonlance (my group voted down a DL campaign, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?! I'm sooooo mad), the campaign I am working on will have Mystics, and Dragonarmies (slightly different), and all sorts of things taken from DragonLance.
I'm not selling anything so its not copyright infringment. Just entertainment for private use!! so no sueing! *waggles his finger at the lawyers that are gathering*
Rosisha, who is a big fan of the Mystic class, especially the Citadel Mystic!
Not only that but mortals kicked Chaos' butt, and Fistandilious almost killed Takhisis on her HOME plane at the HEIGHT of her power.
I tried to resist, but it's useless. I just have to comment on that.
It took the collective effort of the people of Krynn and every god (Takhisis helped a little as well) to defeat Chaos.
Takhisis wasn't, and would never have been, defeated on her home plane. Raistlindantilus' plan was lure her to the prime.
Anyway...

I almost agree with you there. Silvanoshei came a close second for characters that I hated, right behind Mina. He was so caught up in Mina, and she was so caught up with the one god, and they both came across as people obsessed. They were also both spoiled brats in my opinion. However, Silvanoshei had a little more depth to him, which is the only reason he comes in second. I originally felt the same way about Gilthas, but he later redeemed himself. Come to think of it, that's how I originally felt about Laurana as well, so maybe Mina will mature and redeem herself in my eyes as well.
Anyways, not trying to start a character bashing thread....so on with the conversation...
There is just something about Mina. I don't know what it is but she is just a pain. With her one God, she just seems like, oh how to say it, power hungry. She could use an attitude adjustment.
How many more books do you think they are gonna come out with after the War of the Souls?
I still dont know what this campaign thing is. What is it!

Dragonlance Campaign Setting, a sourcebook for the 3.5 edition of the Dungeons and Dragons roleplaying game. It contains the essential information for setting up a game session (or campaign, a series of game sessions) in the world of Dragonlance.
If you like Dragonlance I recomend you play D&D, just go to your local hobby shop or book store and look for the D&D bulitin board (most shops in my area have one) find a group you like, and start gameing.
I also recomend you buy at least the Players Handbook and the Dragonlance Campaign setting.
Welcome to the world of D&D, we hope you stay
