Only issue I'd have with a scattered start is it means we're either having some people sit out, or a big mess of different threads which is tough on the GM.<br/><br/>I'm a fan of a deal to bring everyone together and we just have it based in somewhere exotic. Then we can visit people's home territories as they become relevant and you have to go back home to sort shit out, or steal the important artifact your parent left in thier booze cabinet (Underneath a dragon den. Guarded by a demon. ON FIRE)<br/><br/>Or having us go to Valhalla to meet the Cat-Girl's mentor and ask her a few things or ... a lot of character's past is probably quite deadly!
