[quote=@Lugubrious] No problem. Real life takes precedence, I will simply look forward for your next post whenever it may be. I'm sorry about your friend. [/quote] Thanks for understanding man. I've read all the posts that I missed out on for the past few days and I think my character is going remain separate although not entirely disconnected from the plot. I'm still contemplating whether Haydrex can wonder around the city surface for a while, most likely taking the dirty work of government officials and unintentionally beginning to unravel the mystery as to why and how these creatures are plaguing Ebb to therefore provide and ascertain an explanation in order to provide little bit of a back-story to this plot before descending into the sewers to join everyone else before putting an end to Ebb's problem. Unless someone, of course, someone is already providing a framework for a back-story; If so, I'll probably join you guys later. What do you think?
