I couldn't agree more Heroes - so looking forward to this! And in that same vein? While everyone is crafting and/or putting finishing touches on their characters, I'd have no problem opening up my Abby to prior associations if anyone has a burst of inspiration, a way to have them know each other prior to the start. I already have one or two previous contacts started, but I'd be glad to open up more - and I'm pretty sure most everyone else here would too, if exciting ideas pop up during the thinking process ;)
