@Tali So Donavon, who I'm also going to make synonomous with the prince the goblins were talking about in scene 1, will be the leader of one of the major faery gangs in the Blight, involved in thievery, gambling and the glam trade. The wyldling gang are humans vying with them for territory and resources. They would need to have their own leader.

@februari Information on firearms is kind of dispersed throughout the intro. Essentially think 1860s. Poor people like trappers and farmers will still be using muskets, flintlocks and barrel loading rifles. Those with the money, however, or those in the military/police will have access to revolvers and lever action rifles. There may be gatling guns but only available for the military. Also remember that archaic weapons persist because lead bullets do little to many fae, fomori and magical creatures. It would be difficult or impossible to bring down a charging troll with a gun. For that you need a steel or iron weapon and you can't make steel or iron bullets because the metal is too hard. Hence the continuing use of swords and maces, especially by those who live in or police the Blight.

For those who want to know why complex machines like mechanical walkers exist, but not complex firearms like assault rifles, click the spoiler. There's a good reason.

[hider=limitations of firearms]The limited complexity of gun actions comes from the fact that they're alchemical in nature. Alchemical reactions like the explosion of blue powder in a cartrige always release some amount of energy as wild magic. Wild magic is chaotic in nature and as a result fouls the workings of complex, highly refined mechanisms. Even revolvers and pump actions must be designed to isolate the moving parts from the reaction lest they jam. More complex guns have been devised, the equivalent of modern machine guns, but due to the wild magic inherent in alchemy they always wind up malfunctioning after a few shots. Steam driven machines like striders (mechapods) can be far more complex because the wyld magic is isolated to the engine boiler and expelled int he exhaust, all far from the complex gear systems which distribute the engine's power.[/hider] 

@Rata Looks good, accepted. I like your expansion of the faery glamer into being able to transmit weightlessness to other objects. Definitely fits with the lore. You posted before I accepted your character, but frankly so long as it isn't an awful post I don't really care.
