[@Valornor] I like Val quite a bit actually. He reminds me of the many characters and almost mythical NPCs that you run into during the course of the games. However, that's not really the feel that I'm going for in this game. He's a little bit too mythical and progressed for what I'm going for if that makes sense. This is going to be more of a ground level game of personal stories and harsh survival. He seems like the type of legend that the characters would talk about over a campfire, but not really the type of character that would fit as a PC. If I was putting this into D&D terms he seems like a level 10 instead of a level 1.

Really cool concept, but not accepted as of yet. Let me ruminate on it a bit.
