Alright guys- the time has come. I first wanted to let you all know how grateful I am for the interest that has been shown in this roleplay. I really appreciate the hard work and effort. Regardless of anything, it was a true pleasure reading all of your character sheets. They were all extremely well done and made my job a lot more difficult than I was expecting-- which was a pleasant surprise. I only ask that you understand that there were many factors involved with my decision making and want to stress the indisputable fact that [u]all[/u] of your submissions were great. I mean it. After much consideration, the cast list I have chosen is in the hider below. 

I have also decided to open up 3 extra positions due to multiple requests I have received and the number of amazing submissions. More information about these 3 available slots will be posted sometime this weekend. (To save anyone from wasted work, I ask that character sheets for these positions NOT be submitted until I release more information). I'm in the middle of moving and a bunch of other stuff at the moment, so to help me get the ball rolling and manage the extra people, I will also be appointing a co-GM in the coming days.

Also, I'm sure all of you have noticed the link to my art shop in my signature by now. I'm not rich (otherwise I'd get you all gift cards to Chipotle or something), but I[i] can[/i] offer everyone who submitted a character sheet a 50% discount on whatever original art piece you want in my shop. I also do signatures, icons, and (occasionally) animations. [b]Please note[/b] that this is something I'm only offering to those who have, as of now, submitted character sheets. When I hold mini auditions for the 3 new slots, this will not be an added perk-- so don't go telling your friends to whip up random characters to get discounts. Can't offer too much cheap art or else I'll go from being a starving artist to a homeless AND starving artist.
