Ok, website cleaned up considerably and the high level sheet for Nuneaton added!

Looks pretty good. Mind if I steal this for the master list?

No problem. Go for it.

A Brief Interlude...

The Sveitus Family: A strictly old-world White Court family at present. Though most are probably in north africa or the near-east fanning the flames of indignation aimed toward old regimes. Y'see the Sveitus family feed on rage. Rabble rousers and agitators melting back into the shadows after revving up a volatile situation. Saturday afternoon in Glasgow for the old firm derby is a great meal, finding a pack of lycanthropes is a monthly treat! Luckily the Sveitus are small in both numbers and power at the moment but they have aligned themselves with the White Court that are pro war as it suits their very being.

Thanks for the comments. I take it all on board.

The theme (in my head) was trying to represent people taking rash decisions and Faustian deals (fully supernatural, or not). May have to rethink it.

Nice to meet you Team8Mum.

Derby, well, Buxton will feature in my game. I have a companion character who is an Emissary of Power for Arnemetia - an ancient British goddess that presided over the Buxton spring and grove. The sponsored magic is all about purification and combating demons. The character is an eternal wanderer of Britain meaning he can come and go as I see fit. Found a lot of interesting things the night I made him, including the legend of Julius Caesar's sword whilst he was on campaign in Britain. More on that later, as I have a scenario idea brewing.

Do you have anything on your Liverpool game? Another interesting and great city (they all are really, I suppose!)

A few notes on Raven

She is all about the action. My wife wanted a spell slinging character.

Her Trouble refers to her quest to find her parents (or what has happened, at any rate). Any leads or hints will distract Raven from her current course of action and have her follow. Does this sound ok for a trouble?

Astley Castle will play a very important role in the game. It burned down three years before I was born in real life, but my mother and father (both, now, very sadly deceased) attended parties there all the time, when they were growing up, as it was a hotel and nightspot. The fire really did happen as did finding the black magic effigies and the "?" type symbol scrawled on the door (I neglected to tell that part in the background story). See for yourselves...

It is now, finally, being restored and that will enter into my machinations too!

Plus there is a great old church in the castle grounds. I'll go in a day or two and take some photos to add to the website.

So, my main protagonist...
