> And the surprises just keep coming for Hallie.
|
It was too good an opportunity to miss.
> Samantha is definitely Liz Shaw to Magweed's Jo Grant.
|
I suspect Sam, Mags, and Griff are respectively Lawful Good, Neutral Good, and Chaotic Good, but I'm not entirely sure yet.
> And yes, between Dream, Yuki, Yo and the Shoggoth, Hallie isn't the only one who's sort of straddling the defining line of humanity.
|
We ask a man's condition, not the accident of his creation.
> I see Dream has still failed to recruit Shrike to heroism.
|
And Shrike has failed to recruit Dream to mercenary status.
> Nice reminder of how smart Al B. is - until the Shoggoth gets involved, he can almost outwit a mind-probe and rewrite.
|
It seemed disrespectful to the character that he wouldn't have worked out a work-around.
> Nice solution by the Shoggoth and Uhuna, by the way.
|
It allowed me to play to the Shoggoth's strengths while he still retained his human condition.
> Minor bug fix - you refer to Cromlyn at least twice as "Garrick."
|
I'll go back and check that next.
> And HOLY SHIT, good for you, Garrick, for finally reading one of the rules in the Evil Overlord list, although I have my doubts about Cromlyn's death.
|
Garrick doesn't really like metahumans of any kind. He's do it to all if them if he could.
> Good to see Drury's ethics winning out, regarding Anna, as well as his enthusiasm at getting to beat up Nazis, yet again.
|
He's a straight joe in the world's dirtiest job.
> Thungore and Glumkeep are awesome for adhering so loyally to their genre tropes.
|
I'm expecting casting suggestions next.
> Yet more fascinating backstory for the lighthouse, expertly deduced by Champagne.
|
She's a really useful narrative engine.
> And, wow, saving the entire dying lands, that's gonna cancel out a lot of karmic debt for a lot of people, if we can actually do it.
|
There are still a few technical issues - and one very powerful adversary.
> "Dying Realms Under a Dying Sun" might be a Dead Can Dance song; they're very well-done folk goth musicians.
|
Sadly we've already done LL: The Musical.
> Interesting contrast between the Empress and Yo, in terms of the relative strengths of faith that's compelled versus faith which is freely given.
|
When I originally planned this arc I decided Yo had better be the "returned" character. Then Bill showed up and expressed an interest in Nats playing so I added him as well. This is my guilt-payment at dragging Yo in then switching the focus to someone else for a while.
> And Mumphrey the veteran vampire hunter gets to keep his skills fresh.
|
Mumph tends to like the "plan F" route for big battles, so it makes sense he'd take the "go by a roundabout root to the heart of the problem" approach. It's the same kind of tactical thinking we saw in the final battle against the Parody Master.
> Looking forward to more!
|
Each one gets us nearer to a conclusion.
