Aw, this little chatter was nice to wake up to! I love when my players speculate. Makes it more fun to throw curveballs at them. 1) Y'all can't see the map yet because I haven't put it in. I'm just finishing it up. It'll be there in a few minutes. 2) The NPCs will essentially be my characters, so I'll be the one controlling them. It was so much easier on the OldGuild when we could change fonts and colors and all so I could differentiate between who I was writing as, but you all will just have to bear with me as I figure out the best way to do it. 3) And yes, yes he is. I thought it'd be a little treat for us ;). As for no one biting the dust yet, it's only the beginning of the game, teehee. I hope no one is getting too comfortable~ 4) I don't know if I'll be able to get my post in tonight, again. So sorry! Last day of putting it off, I promise. If it's not up by tonight, it'll definitely be up tomorrow morning. Hopefully we'll see Ginger and Notorious's post in the meanwhile. *EDIT: Alright, map of the manor is up! I know it's not the prettiest thing in the world, but its functioning, heh. Obviously its not true to size. I think perhaps I'll put up a section for the backyard when I'm back on later. And in regards to your rooms; The numbers on your keychains represent the numbers of your rooms (i.e. James's keychain would read #1, etc.)
