In 1956 Life magazine told of the shocking death of five missionaries in the jungles of Ecuador. For several months these men had tried to make contact with the primitive Auca Indians. On their first attempt to establish a camp, they were brutally murdered! Today these same Auca tribesmen are all Christians. They are leaders of a small congregation that worships near the spot where the missionaries died. Many educators and government leaders have expressed astonishment at the miraculous change in these Indians. How did it happen? The answer lies in the love of God expressed to these people by the sister of Nate Saint and the wife of Jim Elliot, two of the martyred missionaries. Led by God who is love and not vengeance, these women were able to break down the walls of distrust. In time they were able to share the gospel with these tribesmen and see the love of Christ transform their lives.

In response (finally) to quite a few posts,

Throwing Darts (blow darts are only good for poison)

Poison - not if you are a LightRaider; tranqs may be alright

These are heavy, not like the ones used on your local pub's board, close
to half a pound each.

As to range, I can throw a regular dart about 100 feet, but with little
accuracy and very little "stick" at the end. ( I understand the physics,
just trying to keep things simple) But at around 20 feet, they sink into
things well. The range is not so great as to need VIS to be factored in,
normal sight suffices, and anyone can use them that close.

[ Anyone still have the original Jarts? ]

Damage at d5 just for simplicity's' sake, DR is about discipleship, not
stats. But anyone is free to make minor adjustments if they want the
realism. An orc throwing a dart would (might) poison it, and roll d4 for
damage.
