    I know I got several of them, but I think not all! Could be, though I thought they were both entirely missed! It's actually sort of odd to me that I've introduced no less than four 'alternative lifestyle' characters into this story (me being straight n' all), even though only one of...

    Guess you're gonna have to go back and read it again, then. ;) I actually don't expect it to be relevant to any of the rest of the story, by the way.

    I did reveal Kenlan's real first name once. I'm not sure anyone picked up on that. Never have revealed his last name, though, and I kind of doubt I ever will.

    The Risks of Subtlety (or: Am I Daft?) by I. J. Thompson :lol: So, me n' DogSolitude were talking on Skype last night. Of course the conversation turned at one point toward Tapestry, and I was surprised to learn that, near the end of this post, the two Camaasi(sp?) characters who entered...

    That works great! I don't think the farmer will play a major role, but he might figure into the next couple of scenes in a minor way. I just always want to be careful when someone else introduces an NPC to make sure I'm not radically altering that player's vision for that character right at first.

    Hey, Dog (or anyone else who might know), is there any back story to the farmer who owns the land we're camped out on? When Mith arrived on the scene, you mentioned that he came from the direction of the farmhouse. Do Mith and the landowner have a history, or is that just chance? Do you have any...

    I. J., don't get me wrong, there are plenty of names I've come up with that don't have any significance beyond just sounding cool, but those aren't the stories I'm sharing now because, well, they're not really stories.

    It's interesting to me that you guys have meanings for all those names. I always chose mine based purely on the sounds they made, and thought that everyone else did, too! :D Although now that I think about it, one of my names had hidden meaning: LX-00. In theatre, the term 'LX' indicates a...

    You're right, this is a fun question! I tend to do the same things when I name things, drawing upon symbolism and reference. I occasionally use those references to help inform myself of where I could potentially go with the character. Tam's first name is a direct reference to Simon and River...

    Dawncaller, I'm totally going to try to work in some kind of reference to that. Kenlan won't actually be dressing like a bantha, but I'll figure out some way to refer back to that. Dog (and everyone else), I don't remember where the name Kenlan came from, but As-Buka comes from the Russian word...

    Interesting behind-the-scenes question! Here are some of mine: Fiola Shaku: Some years ago me and another guy wrote and produced a stage musical, where one of the characters' names was 'Phee'. While I loved the sound of that name, I always hated when two letters would combine to make a sound...

    You really shouldn't have missed this one, Ubiqtorate. We've decided to take the whole story in a new direction entirely. You'll see the whole picture as the other players write, but we need you to have Kenlan dress up as a Bantha, dance like Oola, and spin an X-Wing on his finger like a...

    It appears we can't make a private room. The new details are on the event page. Also whatever we type seems to remain in the room indefinitely, so bear that in mind. I'm not sure what people didn't like about the old chat, but that's progress, I guess.

    Odd... So how do we create a private room and stuff? And that was a great post, Fingon! I know you expressed some concerns about that post, but part of the beauty of writing for Tam is his volatility. He can fly off the handle with ease, per the needs of the writer(s).

    A heads-up: they've updated to the new chat software, and it's quite different, so whoever plans on coming will probably want to give it a look first.

    Looking good! Is there still a way to password-protect the room you're in? Can't seem to find it. In my Group's case, we hold a monthly chat where we talk specifically about our own game (which wouldn't be of much interest to anyone who isn't involved). It would be nice to be able to eliminate...

    “Tell me,” said Tam, not turning away from the prisoner in the holding cell, “why is he unconscious?” “He resisted containment,” offered Gunnery Chief Varnillian, “and had to be stunned. I suggest we keep him in this state for the duration of our journey to Bastion.” Tam could sense the...

    Okay, the new Chat Night event is up on the Group's page. Come on down and RSVP 'yes', 'no', or 'tentative', so we'll have an idea of who to expect! (you can change your RSVP at any time before the event if something comes up) Also, I'd love it if you guys would tell me if the time is...

    The figure at the top of the ramp was a hulking felinoid specimen, perhaps just shy of two meters in height. Most of his orange fur was covered by a plain brown uniform with the insignia of the Rebel Alliance on the bulging shoulders. "I am Captain Amur, leader of Alpha Squadron of Barthok's...

    Yeah, I've been waiting on Fingon, mostly because I wasn't sure how he wanted to react to seeing Tam again. But maybe I should just go ahead and come up with something myself.

    Actually, the trip idea was definitely a late-night pipe dream. But it would certainly be fun to get in a skype conference call when we wrap this thing!
