seriously but i know that the whole war of souls thing kinda brought together the fifth age people and the 4th age people. so im not going to be bitter about how the fifth age changed etc. but seriously i loved the fifth age and how it was and in the AOM book it seems like Takhisis was like a talosian priest in hurricane season! being blamed for every damn thing that goes wrong. now i thought it was fine in the war of souls takhisis stealing magic etc. what i found strange and bizarre was the fact that takhisis was reputed to of
a) been the shadow sorcerer( i mean comon the shadow sorcerer was malastryxs lackey i loved the whole gave magic to humans to stop beryll thing and IF it was takhisis what kind of god would she be if she let someone like palin majere kill her pawn? she certainly had mina in god mode for the time she was important)
b) brought both mysticism and primordial magic back into the world PFFF (this may of been a typo but deserves a pfff anyway)
c) helping kill beryll the uber green with some "giant mysterious hand" (in my opinion totally recks the good can win against evil no matter if its collossal+ and ure sword has a dc of 21+charisma
d) planning massively far ahead when she shoulda been snoosing in abyss/godshome and not training people like dalamar WITH supposedly shadow sorcerer once again
e) helped silvanoshei through the silvenesti shield whilst if i remember correctly the whole way he got through was because he slept next to it and the shield wanted to imprison things.(yes helping silvanoshei through that shield is more likely but the other one is just so much more interesting and cool!)
f) the fact that in the AOM takhisis name and deeds seems to be brought up every 5th word.(massive exageration for those that will pick me apart on that point but hey you get my meaning)

to me i liked the fact that for 35 years or so krynn had to deal with not having gods. Which was awesome i just dont like how takhisis has beein given the wrap for doing a HUGE amount whilst she only apparent in like 3 books outa the entire 5th age series!!

Yes, but what a way to go out, huh? Revealed as the source of all of these troubles and then killed by a 2nd-level elf! I think there's something vaguely poetic about all of that.

i think the fact that a collosal+ advanced dragon failed a saving throw of 24 poetic, Beryll obviously wasnt having a good day.......

Nope. The DM rolled a natural 1 on the saving throw. Happens to the best of us.
