That would really work out to keeping the families all relative. Might make for a rather tight household (assuming that, being a 'traditional' village we live with our parents homes or with our spouses' parents, etc for economic and family reasons), but oh well it'll lead to a rather 'cabbin fever' game of WW.

Okay, then who's the missing link?

And if so, then she probably would be the "elder sister" of us three, which would remove the polarity two sisters vs. one brother unless I were let's say the youngest (well not that I care, it was their idea, not mine). But if she is not, then don't forget I am dating Sally... so I don't know from what time you label people as "adult", in any case don't forget I have a herd to care of; even a teenager can do that, however still I think then at least one of us, phantom or me, should be either at least 20, or both of us being at least around 18. Personally I think 18 or so would be the optimal age for me.

the phantom and I are supposedly engaged, so I guess you should be younger than him.

I am expecting this to be a RPG of epic length .... given that I think we have had games significantly shorter than this thread

I will be ready to play on June 1st, but I'm going away tomorrow and will in all probability be internetless until the following Saturday. Don't worry if I seem to have disappeared.

For me: The earlier, the better. Like I said before, it is going right through my exams anyway, so it will be fun no doubt; oh, stress, how I love thee. And then, as soon as my exams end, I am leaving. So 1st June is perfect.

Weren't Gwath and McCaber trying to date Aganzir? In that case, I don't think it would be a good idea for Morm to be Nogrod's brother... unless we're that kind of village.

Kitanna is my baby!!!!! (only the youngest, not an actual baby)

I'm going to assume Legate and sally are (older) teenagers, like Agan and Diamond, and so children for the purposes of my chart.

I expect to see you in class, young man! You can help Phantom after you're done with your homework.
