If Meji was a lesbian, that would explain her attraction to Ian. Though he may yet grow a pair in a fit of genocidal fury, the kid has no balls. And if he doesn't start growing facial hair real fast, I am going to start beating it out of him with a stick.
Gee, he's wimpy because he has good manners and diction? Dude is better at killing elves than any other character in the story.
Also managed to walk off with with Anilis's power pretty slick, while the other group just sort of barged into the traps and barely escaped with their body parts intact.As a half-elf, can Ian even grow facial hair? And at his age?
As I recall, Ian was the one set upon by bandits, attacked by mind-fuck traps, AND hit with the force field. Sarine/Jon/Meji set upon the bandits, disabled the mindfuck traps, and at least Jon was unaffected by the force-field...
*A new challenger has arrived!*
Ian managed to survive/deal with the bandits single-handedly. Noone dealt with the mindfuck traps, they did the flawed damage they were capable of and were only understood afterwards. Ian was far more competent in dealing with the Pedagogusi.
All in all I've had the same doubts about him but he's clearly shown that he is able of thuggery, knowing the setting and travelling with some amount of stealth. While not as 'badass' as Jon or Sarine per say he does not have the motive either. He did blast Sarine and kill two elven soldiers.
He's a bit reluctant to get involved in violence though... mrhmmm, this sort of spilt out into the sand, oh well. :)
