Hmm... sad but true, I can't think of any plot line that is not quest-related. I'll have to think about this some more.
The Orcs-attack-questers plot I think is way overused here, so let's not have that... but I do like the idea of all the characters' internal conflicts coming together in one journey to find out the unknown about themselves... this could go places without really going places, if you know what I mean. And I like Mattuis's beginning. So all wrapped up in one package, here's what I think would work:
All of the characters somehow come together in the area described by Iaurlachien. Finding that some of us have empty holes in our lives (like Faye and Brinn with no past and me wallowing in grief at my companions' demise), we help each other in trying to mend them by searching for clues as to what happened in the past that could affect them this way, and we make this up as we go along instead of having it all planned out (we can discuss it of course). It will be difficult to write this, but I'm sure in the end it'll be worth it. How does that sound?

BTW, Brinn- glad you decided to jump on the bandwagon. Welcome to the wonderful world of RPing.
