So, with Sentel and Hatake left to do their opening posts, the next stage has begun.  My next post, in a couple days, will initiate the tournament.  In the meantime, I am finishing two important collections of information, including the pseudo-map of the City of Echoes (which is necessary for character placement), as well as beginning the sheet for the last character which, together with Roadie's second NPC, will finally complete the roster.
