I'd have to agree, given the current profusion of advy's. Of course, that may be 
because I'm on BT, and there are sometimes a dozen or more advy's hunting in 
the same region as you. If advy's were fewer and far between, that might 
change.

Of course, to make an advy really work, you have to find a good RP hook. The 
little group I'm in has has some great fun RPing between us, and even getting 
tie-in from the nobles in the area. (We were once RP-arrested by the general of 
Riombara! Then later one, he did it to us again in a differnet city! Those were 
some of the funnest times we've had with RP.)

Advy's are almost all RP, aside form their current use on BT with the invasion. If 
you don't enjoy making up stories ad hoc based on a simple "You found a small 
silver mirror", then you probably won't like playing an advy.

/me sighs... I need to write more RP with my advy...
