If it's Aria, then the war starts much sooner than I plan for.

Just a quick note, Loyal: Quinn is a girl, and can DEFINITELY hold her own in a fight.

Hopefully I can get a Clock profile up today. If not, then I just won't post one and make the character secondary.

I would still like to know how exactly you plan to make that fight thing work, as Aria's abilities, Quinn's skills and Jareth's talents are not at all of the same kind..

Well, I think the first step is to get them to encounter each other, and see how they interact. Quinn is an excellent fighter and strategist, but so, it would seem, are Aria and Jareth. Basically, I guess they will have to put aside their differences to work together to change the system.

Sure, all that stands.. But Aria and Quinn, however good they are at that, manipulate physical, don't they? Fight and make fire or so.. Jareth manipulates time, and you can't literally fight with time. But I'll let you to figure that one out - for now, he doesn't even know anyone wants to fight him :mrgreen:

Right, so with different skills (aka physical fighting and whatever time fighting consists of) they can figure out some way to overpower the current TM. Maybe. I don't know how well it will work out, but it seems to me that it has a definite chance. :D

Hey guys. I'm going to be gone snowmobiling friday and saturday, so I won't be able to post. Just thought I'd let you know.
Save time... see it my way.

Well, my new quester is up. Had to read up a bit about the treatment of German DEFs in Norway after the occupation, but it was worth it xD Anyway, I included Beth in my story ;)

Thank you very much, she will explain how she got there soon enough xD

By the way, more that 200 years? You really made me think of a Quest to give you, that would be so hard xD


By the way again, he sounds like he might get along well with Jareth, they're both really old, with a lot on their mind and into protecting people :mrgreen:

Oh. I just remembered something. Don't know if you were going for that with the man attacking Beth, but in any case, do count on Jack the Ripper appearing sooner or later.. It's that time after all, and if we have Wells, we should have him too, right?

I was even thinking of making him involved in the whole Questing thing somehow, just for fun.

Actually, he is mentioned, in Jareth's first POV - the teenager with the wicked look in his eyes, as he should still be young at the time xD

Ah no ignore that I was going to rewrite that post but school happened. Unless someone had something in mind.

Well, he gave up after the first 25 years, and decided that his crimes were to heinous to ever be forgiven.
But yes, the quest has to be difficult xD And yes, he and Jareth will probably get along :)

Oh, yeah. It would be so cool if Jack the Ripper was there xD Hrm, I'm kind of a history nerd ;K

25 years is still quite some time.. I hope you'll forgive me for taking time to think about it (or suggest something if you have an idea).

As for Jareth, I did again what I'm arguing a lot about with a friend of mine.. I made a character I like, gave him the power to do a whole lot of stuff, and than slowly started to cut off his choices - last one of that kind, in my novel, had a rather weird ending xD
A friend could be good thing for him, especially if the friend can watch over him a bit (as Jareth will hardly follow the order of not using powers, and that's bad)..

Jack is then definitely in. Makes me kind of happy in a kind of wrong way, lol, but that means that Beth will have a whole lot on her back too, and I do tend to do that to my characters :mrgreen:

I'm a nerd for some parts of history, too.. Like, Victorian England (I bet you'd never guess, lol) ^^
