So, instead of...

"You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building. 
Around you is a forest. A small stream flows out of the building and down 
a gully."

it becomes...

"You are standing in front of the firey end-boss, Ragnoros.  Thirty nine 
other people are with you.  A player decked out in heavy plate approaches 
the infernal creature and begins to attack.  You suddenly get whispers 
from six players asking for, "WATER!".  Congratulations, you are a mage."

Of course, one would be using stringColor() in sdl_gfxprimitives.h to make 
this happen!  :P

Hehe,
Doug.
