woo im alive 
sorry about not posting i've just been absolutely all over the place hah, kept forgetting to check on the rp and lost the motivation to finish my response that i had started like what
weeks ago or something
[s]no concept of time i just know i meant to respond a while ago and never actually finished the post[/s]

as far as Kludd goes, currently he's best suited to defense and healing stuff, what with his magic being suited to that and all. 
as time goes on and they actually get some formal fighting training he'll get to be a pretty good attacker too, but as is he doesn't feel like punching the monsters is going to exactly hurt them much, so might as well not waste the energy. 

I have some things to take care of first, but my response will come sometime tonight or tomorrow ^^
