It's not a relevent question anymore but I am still curious.

Hey everyone. Remember when Haley had that speech impediment? You know, all the cryptograms? Was there something preventing her from writing down what she wanted to say? Just a thought that occurred to me.

My offhand guess is that she would've had results somewhat like severe dyslexia, to stay in tune with plot necessity.

We know she's good at Forgery (OtOoPCs) so there's always the chance that she could've "fooled herself" and overcome dyslexia, just as a rogue with UMD can "fool himself" concerning the forces of magic.

Well, yes there was :smallsmile:
It was the plot preventing her from even trying.

I thought she tried writing once and it was in cryptograms just like her talking.

UMD isn't fooling himself, it's not even fooling the item. It's using your raw personal power and force of personality to convince the item to work for you.

I believe this did happen.

I do not remember this. Can you link to the page? Thanks.

I can only factor a guess that what Deckmaster described occurred in either No Cure For the Paladin Blues or Wars and XPs, meaning the it did not occur within the online comic.

No I have the books and I don't see it in the bonus comics.

It would either not work, or nobody thought of it. See FAQ, the PCs are not allowed to have any great ideas that would get them out of their troubles.
