Gentlesophonts:
My time on the TML may be ending. One account will be terminated on
April
18th and my priviledges to mail outside my facility at my other
account
appear to have been revoked. I heard those muffled cheers. :-)
I'll
still be getting TML though so I'll be keeping up with y'all. Hey,
that wasn't even muffled! :-)

Well, I'm not too concerned with sticking to the `official' campaign
or not.
I agree that a ref ought to be able to do as she pleases with
anything. I'm
just a `background junkie' and a fundamental of background-building
is
consistency.

This approach seems to provide good adventure potential.

I think such an occurrence will be explosive in the Coalition!
That's great!

I concur. This is a good idea. If you want to protect your ideas
you ought
to keep them off TML (or *any* public forum).

Well, I looked and didn't find anything on the jumpstart caches *or*
Longbow.
Is this the right reference? Avery appears in *Arrival Vengeance* by
the
way. He's *about* eight in 1126 which puts his birth c1118 and will
make him
82 in 1200. My guess is he's another clone of Strephon. (I know I'm
*really*
taking a chance with that guess. :-)
Well, I hope this isn't the last you hear of me. :-)
