Are we making a guide for how to handle those? In Elpis' case, she needs help in exploring a new Age. I've created a girl who is her assistant, named Kelsey - no details yet. And in it, Kelsey accompanies her on her exploring and also manages any volunteers that are needed. Elpis and Kelsey link together to the new Age first after studying the descriptive books for the Age and the journals ...

Here is what I have gathered so far from my characters: KoHama is someone with whom there is very little interaction. She has suffered a lot of emotional damage over the years -- losing her parents while still young, watching the world change from the 1960s through the 1990s, ...

And yet for the La Casa story, that is what many of us would have been called at some point in life. When planning out your character, consider what name was given at birth. Don't worry. You don't have to use it, just have it ready should we need to produce the list of who we all once were. After her father died in 1967 Margaret Linnea Donnelly was "adopted" by Joseph and Marie Calling Bird who gave ...

With the early April closure, the story has become web-based. As such, you can be a role-player, a writer or an artist, and participate to any extent with which you are comfortable. Unlike actors in a script, we can be whoever we wish to be and can play multiple roles. Your choice of who and how to play are completely open. This is not a guild and there are no requirements for mastery, etc. Most characters will be guests ...
