@Helix: Mmm, I'm about to go to bed, so I'll read over your CS tomorrow-- but to answer your question:
The main thing I want you to keep in mind here is that every character sheet you submit is going to be a candidate for receiving these ominous "whispers in the night"-- which will be urging certain characters to do certain things or to go certain places. Sometimes the voice will tell everyone the same thing and other times it will be more specific. I'll be PMing everyone what the voices told their characters once night falls at the end of each day in the IC. This is mainly because I don't really /want/ everyone chatting amongst themselves like "Hey, so what did YOUR voice say last night?" At least not at first anyway. Anyone who attempts to do so right off the bat obviously doesn't really care whether or not other people think they're loony.
The thing about being an "antagonist" is... while the character may be an antagonist for YOUR character... he won't really be an antagonist for the RP. If the Crimson Hound is receiving the same messages as everyone else-- urging him incessantly to accomplish the same goal as your personal protagonist-- that might get kind of confusing.
Now, I'm not saying you can't-- but you do have to keep that in mind. The wolfos' way of life will definitely be affected if Hyrule as a whole is said to be in grave danger, so the Crimson Hound may have reasons to join along in the quest, but if that's not really what you're looking for, then I would suggest trying something else. What you may wish to do is simply keep the characters you don't want to be as involved as NPCs. I have no problem with you doing that. Just understand that I expect every OC with his/her own CS to be very involved with what's going on.
