I WILL SAY! :D

So we've got a short flashy assassin-guy with a small arsenal hidden on his person, the most entertaining lizard-guy in the world, a piece of cheese* (successfully) posing as the hero of legend, a happy con-man who sings about the hero of legend, a broody wizard-guy preoccupied with revenge, and an even shorter lady armed with a screwdriver.

I could see us all being in the same place, maybe a generic tavern, maybe something like a carnival. Maybe one of you bards discovers and sings about the great H. Erstwhile's terrible feats, and another of us -- probably Cole and Charlie, maybe Chao and Dali -- already have an invitation to the Ceaseless Feast. Saoirse would likely insist on tagging along as a +1, if only for the chance to see Erstwhile's collections, and would probably be forward in asking others to come along as well, if only for protection and anonymity.

Essentially my suggestion is that we're all fresh acquaintances who were either invited or invited ourselves to this dinner party, and agreed ahead of time to go together. Personally, because of our very different backgrounds, I don't think I could pull off having known you guys for very long, haha. It's more fun to figure you out as we go!

*I don't know why Cole reminds me of cheese. He seems cheesy. I love it. xD
