Re: Non HPU: Beacon Of Hope OOC
Planning out this arc made me think about the phenomenon of the corruptive force power has on those who wield it. In fact, this game has made me think about this a lot. I used to wonder if the Beacon of Hope, run by a single individual who holds essentially all power, would realistically be as dedic...

Re: Non-HPU: Crater City OOC
They look good. Hey, Krytus, I decided that partner characters can still utilize 48 points despite only having 6 stats instead of 7. My reasoning for this is that Partners will have some degree of training that ordinary folk don't have, and that letting them allocate the extra points still doesn't m...

Ok.
I think that it would be good to skip ahead.
As soon as the planetside stuff is done (should be soon) and the new characters get settled, I'll move things forward to the next day.
I might not write today, as I just had a long flight and I am very tired, but I will write soon.

Generally I encourage sticking with the group, since when your character leaves the group it can be difficult to find a point where they can re-join.
That said, this in-game day might be coming to an end pretty soon. Most of the days events are over, and there's not much left to do.
