Yes, I have read the first 2 DragonLance books, and I am anxiously awaiting
the third. (September! Oh that is sooo far away). Killed off next? I don't 
know. I wasn't very pleased when Sturm died. He was, after all, a good guy.
Furthermore, he was above politics, and wasn't afraid to say so, even at the
cost of his life long ambition (or so he thought).

Raistlin's role is an easy one...His own. He is the personification of a
neutral person I have ever seen. He wants power, for himself. Simple.

Fizban is a different story. I have NO doubt about who Fizban REALLY is,
but I won't say here, in case you haven't figured it out. If you really
want to know what I think, then send me mail.
 
Who is the Green Gemstone Man? I don't know.
 
Who out there is also playing the DragonLance Modules? Generally, I don't
like modules, but this series (once DL5 came out) is very good. Well designed
and doesn't need lots of modification. You have one definate set purpose, as
opposed to "wiping everything in the module out".
