Given that we have not heard anything out of Esmeralda for several days, we may end up starting without her.
The person we were waiting on is more than likely not going to be joining us.
And Arielace needs to get his character's god damn biography in order.
Other than that there's nothing impeding the start of this RP. In theory we could start today, everyone's got different starting posts to work out, the actual traveling groups will have to be dealt with according to who wants to be with who. Naturally, some of the characters may have problems with each other; this will help us establish our more permanent companions.
Ideally, no-one will start in the same place as anyone else. Keep that in mind.
