Hear hear! :rousing call of agreement: I'm looking forward to seeing what aces you both have up your sleeves. Alarin's magics are rather weak, but slippery so I hope it balances itself out against the more direct, powerful attacks. I've not sat down to really figure it out, but I know the "basis" for them and that should limit them right there. I hope! Heh. Feel free to call me on it, either of you, if I let Alarin get out of hand. It's been a few years now since I played a magic user in a RP. I'm feeling rather rusty.

Don't sweat the time stuff, Kio. At least not from this end. I'd bet most people can relate. Life just gets busy sometimes. Whatever you can give us will have to do, won't it? (Not like we have any choice in the matter.)
