Wow guys. My PM inbox has never been busier and it’s great to see so many character applications up so rapidly. I’ll start working through and discussing all the characters submitted with Hillan this weekend, but until then here are a few discussion points and questions to pose to the players:

Which of the regions do you each find most interesting and enthralling, and which mysteries are you eager to unravel first? 

Does anyone have any early theories about the source of the Blight? 

When we begin the game, would you rather your characters were drawn to Vasilius and then sent out to begin their quest as a group? Or would you prefer a more individualistic approach, where each character pursued their own goals separately or in smaller partnerships?

As it comes to it, I'm finding myself very interested in the civil unrest of Eerum. I'm quite a big fan of political literature and there's an interesting possibility for that there. Vive la révolution and the like. 

I agree with the sentiment of mages for the stone blight. It's always magic that messes shit up in places like this. 

As for the placement situation, I think smaller groups would be fun but it also requires at least two characters per location, whereas we can start outright in the capital for the first act and always split later.
