So long as you feel as though you'll be able to keep up with the pace we've set in the IC, by all means feel free to submit something.

After further consideration to the visible pace of this RP, my 'real life' goals/plans, and my present RPing commitments, I will opt not to submit a character. 

Best wishes to this RP and all involved.
