Kevin loaded up a generic fantasy setting and led mini-will into the Danger Room proper. The room gave Kevin a very "vagabond adventurer" clothing overlay.

Will twisted and turned and folded over until he was a multi-bladed monstrosity--an example of over-compensating if I'd ever seen one.

"Parry! Thrust! Engarde!"

Will had very good balance for a sword, and was lighter than was expected.

Kevin, being a major league dork, had cultivated a character in the setting. An epic one, naturally.
