Huh. I admit I didn't do any real research on the locale yet, thanks [@idlehands]. The way you described the town fits quite well with what I anticipated, but it's always nice to be re-affirmed. --- As for the characters- i admit I hadn't had the time to read all the sheets fully, but I skimmed through histories when I had a chance and read the rest of the info and whatnot- but I enjoy our cast immensely to be perfectly honest. Even if there's some overlap I think it serves the setting nicely- just as the disparity and tension that will undoubtedly be present amongst the characters will be immensely satisfying and amazing. I think everything'll turn out fine if I'm allowed to be my optimistic little self. That being said, sundays are my D&D days, so I'll be gone for a vast number of hours.
