Gil was Robin this time...or maybe Batman.. I had intended to have all new chars but then I let Nogrod be Clouseau until I changed him to Poirot...... and I couldn't decide whether to let Robin be the heir to the original Gil Batman of MM1 or to continue the reincarnation conceit..whatever.... it all ended too quickly for much character development - which in a way is a pity becasue there was a lot of stuff I was saving that I never needed.

Zali - you were Inspector Tom Barnaby of the inspirational ITV series "The Midsomer Murders" - which if you ever get a chance to see it features Orlando Bloom getting run through with a pitchfork in pre Legolas days in an early episode.
The actor was also "Bergerac" (another missed joke) but that is going back a bit.

Has everyone else been identified?

Well although I had to write two off the cuff death scenes (Diamond was going to be martyred a la Joan of Arc) I think this proves the excitement value of retractable votes and that you don't need a lot of extra characters to make a good game - that isn't a criticism of the games that do have them, I loved being a guardian and liked the wild card aspect of the mytho, but I think this makes it more of a challenge for the ordos.

Despite Boromir's strike rate it could have still gone the other way as the original WW game shows. Also the ill-starred Kitanna was just as successful a Seer as Boromir as far as dreams go in MM1 but was far less successful at being believed.

I hope that you don't feel shortchanged but this turned out to be an espresso game rather than a latte......
