I sure haven't heard if it. I am almost as biased against dwarves as you are elves.

"Later" was dependent of the people that joined. The people in free didn't care about an all elf planet. Well, person, I should say. If they wanted more diverse races, there would be more. Just later.

In my roleplay, politics are unknown in the sense of how we understand them, until later. The High Priest doesn't rule per say, she simply pushes the people in the right direction after speaking to The Pure One in one way or another. There are no.. laws. Except don't get eaten by the Kaldio.

I suppose you are right. I was thinking more on people not knowing the first plot point until they joined. A small surprise. 

As for the hook, yeah I know its not great. I would write something more interesting, but between drawing what the role play needed and life, I really havent had time. Except yesterday. I could have totally done it yesterday.

For disliking you initially, you are okay.
