Since I suppose the interest part is done, I'll just post here. Totally wasn't stalking the threads... Nopenopenope.

Sorry to hear you're not feeling too great, Maxwell. Hopefully those painkillers do the trick, and do not run out, at all. Because it sucks to run out of painkillers before you run out of pain. No rush if you need to just leave off for a bit, seriously, I'm sure we all know what it feels like to be out of sorts. We can wait. 

Also, whoohooo! I am so excited! This is, I believe, going to be great. I really do hope so. It has certainly had a promising start. And I agree with you on Sir being weak. It's kinda funny to see a six foot beast that way, but he probably is the weakest of the bunch. If you think he needs additions, we can talk about that, or he might just wind up being the weak link, or dying... That's life. Especially when life consists of a large force invading your home with powerful magic and lots of soldiers.

Umm, now, I was wondering, for the sake of keeping intersecting histories clear, do I have the numbers right here for how many years individual characters have been at the Court? Some of them seemed like they might have been involved to a lesser extent early on, so I added brackets, but I think I got the timeline sort of right. Maybe..

Roderick - 20 (30)
Taula - 20
Lin’Lise – 19 
Nykerius – 17
Sir - 11
Riven – 7 (25)
