My apologies. I wasn't aware of the shorthand. He's intended to be primarily a false Paleblood Hunter for now.

So, something about this timeline doesn't add up. "Several" is defined by the dictionary as "more than two but not many." In this case, however, "several" would appear to mean 29. From the rest of the CS it seems as though it's simply the word "several" that confuses me, really, because it seems to acknowledge that a long time has passed and seems to generally have a fairly orderly timeline.

I see why that may be confusing. I used "several" for lack of a better word because I wasn't entirely sure how many years passed between the Cainhurst Massacre and the Night of the Bloodmoon OOC. It's never really been clarified canonically; I wasn't sure if you had specific plans for the timeline between those events. I did some research on it and most estimates range between 10-30 years before the events of the Bloodborne. I had to make sure my character was older than that as well to have memories related to it. I ended up going with I thought an ideal age might be (6-7 years old) and worked from there. 

This is definitely mutable as well. I don't mind making him older or younger as necessary to better fit in with the working timeline. I tried to relax on using hard dates/specifics/locations as much as possible so as not to accidentally trod on any plots or outcomes you had in mind. 

[quote]Is Ludolf's caretaker and/or his adoptive sister (for lack of a better term) characters that we would be familiar with, or also your original creations? If so, if you have any further details on them feel free to write me a PM so I can maybe use them in my plotting.[/quote]

These are all original creations. They are somewhat inspired by some we encountered in-game (Arianna and Imposter Iosefka, specifically), but these are all non-canon with their own goals & designs. I'm happy to hit you up in PM and talk more about them. I was going to write a lot more about the specific relationships and what went on between them but it was pretty hard to do on the phone (and the same thing above about being leery with canon material or inadvertently messing with future planned stuff).
