eh, never mind, I guess I'm dropping out after all. Wonderful setup, it is, but I just can't get into it when our characters, guardians of creation specifically chosen by a being from beyond time to protect everything that is, was and will be from unknowable horrors, are weaker and more underequipped than a first level RPG character. Party balance is fine, literally only a single ability per character (oh, and a weapon) strikes me as overly limited and boring for the setting.
