Okay, I think we have enough to at least push the boat from the shore. We'll no doubt garner some more interest once the lurkers see how things are going to go down. 

For those who read the intro, they'd of noticed that "one hundred and twenty feet" were mentioned, this is referring to [b]sixty[/b] farmhands who head back from the fields to help the village. Some of those left when they saw what was happening, but some have stayed. 

Let's say, in total, we've got about thirty-forty farmhands standing on the bridge. These NPCs are mere cannon fodder, watch them die or save them at will - or forge secondary characters from them should you wish. Their main purpose however, will be the faceless mass from which new players can spring from during the initial foray. 

After the Battle of Cowfallow, any new characters will come from the villagers that fled to safety, but found their resolve late, turned, and tracked down those that held the bridge. 

If there's any questions or queries, shout them out as we go, I'll do my best to answer.
