So, I went a little further with my "Power-Playing." Let me know if it went too far. I'm not sure how much everyone's comfortable with in situation where someone else made the NPC. But I'm certainly not against any of you interacting with the character on your own. If you're really concerned, you can always PM me before you post. But if everyone's more comfortable bunnying, then I'll probably continue with this level of "power-playing" simply to keep the plot moving and keeping things interesting. 

Any suggestions are always welcome, too. ^^
