(This post is about my Snake-thing)

How do you handle Magic?
Well, I'm not that far yet. I have magic, but as my main character doesn't know anything about it, I can't tell. It will show up later in the story, but it is not going to be the HP like, nor so much like Gandalf. It will probably be more like mind-magic, uhm you can travel for a day, and with help of your or others' mind you are hundreds of miles away, that travel could have taken years. Described it as h*ck, I should work more on it...

How do you use your monsters - as foils for the hero/heroine? in unexpected ways?
Ach, monsters... well, they haven't shown up yet. (I'm not really far in my story, as some might have noticed) I have plans of some, and though I'm not into the description yet, I have a vague idea, that they might be human-controlled... I will know for sure when the dark mists of the future has passed...

I really have a problem with my history. As I said, it's supposed(sp?) to be like the Sil, but I'm really bad at telling legends, and I don't know where to start - anybody has any ideas? (May find them on page 9 or whatever, but it can take ages before I get that far... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] )
But now my mum wants my preciousss computer, so I'll have to continue later... (not actually my computer, but we wantsss it, we wantsss it!) sorry, in a Gollum-mood today [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
