Hmmm More of number 2

Though Will has a bit of influence on this as well.

Well... at least with connections to and information from (even if secretly and without Veronica's consent) ;)

In that case, how does "Veronica's lab has files on Eli" work? Did she study him and make files or did she steal them from somewhere?

I think she may have taken them to protect her brother.

Or Uriel collected them for her...

I pictured it as a small, private, hidden lab as well. Will just threw money at equipment for her because he wants the best for his best friend. It has nothing to do with him being secretly in love with her and willing to do anything to make her happy.

Of course not. Who would even suggest such a thing?

I'd like to default to "if you created the NPC/location, you describe how it looks." Of course, someone may have connected your creation somewhere along the line in a way that might change your initial thoughts, but everyone here seems to be pretty collaborative so far, so I don't see a problem with making adjustments to fit the setup.

Please do tell me if there's a detail like that, big vs small lab, someone looking scary or attractive, or really anything that you pictured for your NPCs or locations. I have ideas, but they may not be like yours.

I'd also like to stick with the "once written, it is truth" default so that if you make up a detail in game, it becomes fact. Some things may need changing, but I'd like to default to the "what's written is law" bit as much as possible .

I'll look over everything I've added to the game and post some descriptions of them (except for Jessica's as that has already gotten some attention.

I might not get to it until tomorrow morning, however

I'm just waiting on squadfather44's relationships so I can leverage them for dramatic potential. I'm trying to hold off too much prep without his relationships or the first episode might sort of exclude him.

I'm going to go ahead and start prepping without Squadfather's relationship statements. I really wanted to wait but I know he's been busy and I don't want the game to die on the vine.

I'll try to get something together and a first post up so we can start playing Monday morning.

I'm really excited to get started! I can't wait

I posted my character sheet. I've got to transfer the last couple steps and I'll be ready to go.

I seriously apologize everyone for being so late.

Awesome! Thanks!

Do you have relationship and value statements? Those really help me build compelling scenes for the characters.

I wanted to post a quick apology. I received some rather distressing news over the weekend that has sort of distracted me from fantasy and writing. I'm partway through setting up the first scenes, but it might take me another day or two to finish up and get it posted.

No worries, take the time that you need.

Well said real life comes first.
