[@Genkai] ok that sounds like it may work out well. I kind of hoped there would be more internal conflict besides the rifts since that makes everything juicy and plump with drama. About my characters role... I was thinking of less of a stabby-slashy type of character and more of a calm speaking, silver tongued monk-like character who does not like bloodshed and carries a stave instead of blades. I figured there would be an abundance of ex assassins, lord commanders and mage warlords and figured id go a different route. I wouldnt worry about the amout i write since ive been on the site for three generations. Survived both teardowns and kept kicking haha. What i mean is going through the trouble of using bbcode or html to change font colors or sizing and hiders might be a pain for me on a phone, not the core material.
