It's true, I picked from the top of the pile rather than the bottom. It's something that's probably morally reprehensible, and I'll admit the reason was mostly convenience. The interest expressed in the intchk was quite a while back, and EntertheHero was still 'fresh,' so I approached them first. Think of me what you will, it's already done. My only defense is that it looks like there may be more than just the one open slot, in the end.

As far as being a mystic adept, if we were rolling dice, you'd better believe my screening process would be more strict. But I've tried to let everybody play who/what they wanted in this RP with few restrictions, and so far I like the way that has worked out. We have a hacker/decker with almost free access to everything so far (this will change in the future, but for now Traction has had free reign of whatever nets we've run across, including her teammates' comms,) a gunslinger with a loadout to make a lady blush, a Nartaki burnout ripped from a John Woo movie, multiple mage hybrids of varying breeds. And I like it that way. Let people play what they want to play and trust them to police themselves. I don't see a reason to go back on that philosophy now. I don't think I'll restrict anything before even seeing what Reaper can/will do in the RP.

I apologize if you think less of me for my carefree attitude towards this. I don't feel the need to explain it away with excuses because there aren't any to be had, it just is the way it is.
