Northern! You made it! And you couldn't have chosen an odder time to join up! But we'll make room. Approved! Just remember he'll arrive without his weapon. ;)

I think the most logical thing (and to keep with the rules of the story) would be to have you wake up next to Talan (TheDarkTemplar, Red rune) just before the floor caves in. I'll go ahead and edit you into the latest mod post, and I'll try to make it clear enough for a starting point. I think out of all the characters, yours will possibly have the worst wakeup call.

Essentially, the latest mod post is an effort to bring all the remaining characters together from different places. Since everyone in the thread is now in the same place, nobody has to bother with using the runes anymore unless you really like it and want to. Use the green rune, if you want to do so, since at the end of the mod post everyone is gathered around the green lantern (thanks to Kituo/ZealousBlade).

Edit: OK, Peryn is edited into the mod post, under the red rune section. Also, Scullyosis if you're still around you've been included. If you're not around, I suppose we can assume Starbuck was lost somewhere in the dark abyss.
