I hope that was satisfactory for an introduction, [@ELGainsborough]. Not all of my posts will quite as long, but I took some liberties in it as it was - so do forgive me and inform me from here on out if I caused issue. I provided a bit of background insight and, because we are as of now an unofficial party, assumed that the encounter with [@Yamazaki]'s character resulted in her joining. I do not mind a bit of split timelines briefly so that interaction turns favorable; I do not foresee us being [i]that[/i] sort of party which turns on one another at whim.

I will personally do my best to ensure all of these characters survive long enough that their existence is just not immediately discarded. 1st level is quite lethal, but that's what our feline friend is for; he makes an excellent and striking stand-in for a fighter or barbarian. You have my word I will avoid being abusive with that power among others. I am here to tell a story personally - I'd rather it not end so soon, if you know what it is I mean.

And I should note, even if we only have a few characters portrayed by players, I am more than willing to continue participating.
