Hello there! I was browsing the forums and saw Mr. OatMush's thread. I loved the concept, and thought I should volunteer my own services in this way and fashion. To note, I will do the same and tell you where my attention broke, and where I dropped it. However, I won't be able to give you...

That was a fascinating thread to read. Just write when you can, but try to write everyday. Consistency matters in any activity.

I don't see the problem! What you'll do is add lots of conflict to the dynamic of the team, and conflict is good! You just need one incident that hooks the Lawful Good Character (hereby, LGC) with the MC team. LGC needs a token where they can doubt their own beliefs about their dogmas, and have...
