Words of wisdom from Healergirl, in both instances.<br/><br/>Firstly, Fate (and this game in particular) is fairly flexible. I'm not asking you guys to finish up their phases to torment them and force them to write long essays for my amusement. I just want some pre-existing bonds to help establish a somewhat healthy party dynamic before you set off on your travels through hellmurder island. If you're finding phase-completion to be difficult or un-fun, then just ignore that and leap into the game. In fact, because a lot of people here haven't had much experience with Fate before, I have no problem with minor-to-mid-sized character overhauls, if anyone ends up discovering that their character is playing in an entirely different fashion than they expected. I'd prefer to limit this to maybe 2-3 aspects or skill changes per person (and preferably before we've delved too deeply into the story), but my real desire here is to make sure that everyone's having fun. If somebody wants to change their character entirely, just send me a PM, and we'll work it out!<br/><br/>As for the character sheet thread: yes, I'll whip one up. Both the IC thread link and the Character Sheet Thread will be linked in the first post, as soon as I can manage it.
