Don't threaten others to a fight, when you know you likely would lose, but that doesn't stop you from making a show as if you would want a fight, but being carefull enough to not push it too far.
Also, you wouldn't run straight into your death, but if you know there isn't really that much actual risk to yourself, you can just rush headlong into the enemies and go berserk.
The important thing is to always stay aware when it may become dangerous but as long as you think you are in controll, there is no need to be carefull.

Talosians can be thugs indeed. They often like to do the racket protection thing - 'pay or be destroyed!'. But you should never, ever back up also when needed. Talos HATE weaklings and cowards. So, if you or your god feel wronged, STRIKES!

05-07-07, 01:02 AM In a game I ran, a cleric of Talos masqueraded as a cleric of Gond. He convinced the townspeople (and the PCs!) that the town was under a curse (of his making) that was perpetrated by a peasant, and that the only way to get rid of the curse was to burn the perpetrator inside a giant Wicker Man (from Fiend Folio). The PC's went along with the whole plan, until the point where the Wicker Man started rampaging through town. The priest of Talos was very wise and intelligent, and managed to cause destruction and chaos while doing it.

However, remember that a hurricane, while extremely destructor, takes time to form, and do not move "that" fast. Instead of always being impulsive (which could lead to a funny but short-lived character), you could be spiteful, plotting storms and promising that Talos' wrath will be terrible.
