Just throwing it out there for those still interested and those who have bailed without so much as a word, the OOC is in progress. We are still actively talking characters, potential interactions in the vein of who knows who, and just general banter. With luck, Jess should have the OOC up sometime shortly and we'll be rolling into stage two. I just ask patience as this is a team effort and there's a lot of sickness going around.
