    90. Everyone thinks and says they can kill you no problems, despite you killing dragons on a daily basis.

    This happens in every damn RPG ive played in a while, everyone thinks they can take you. Even though you are the biggest bad ass in the game world.

    105. Turning into a Werewolf in the middle of a town is not a good idea.
