Well I have had a lot of experience with GMing (especially co-GMing) but the main issues are twofold: 1) does gowia mind if we take over his concept - if he doesn't reply within a set period then we can assume he won't be back in the short term and 2) how does the war with Darthpaul turn out.

I don't want to step on toes or to steal a RP but I'm providing the option.
