I had to log and go to work, so didn't have time to call for a rez.
Didn't lose too much, so I can get back my loss. Probably go for
brutes again for most of it, as the hides are still good for

The kitties do look good, and I may do that to get up to a higher
level.
Haven't yet decided what faction is most valuable to me in Velious.
Need to study this one a bit.
