[QUOTE="Sagiro, post: 6880905, member: 726"] I changed Aravis to a woman because I wanted a more gender-balanced set of protagonists. Nothing more than that. And "Ysabel" was actually the original preferred spelling of the player whose character she was. I think you will best served reading the book without carrying any specific expectation over from the game. I'd like to think I didn't change anything "for change's sake." I'm leaning on the game heavily for source material, obviously, but where I made any particular decision I tried to start fresh from the question "what will serve the books the best?" If that bothers you, and you'd like to skip the books in order to preserve the game itself as the "real" version of the campaign in your mind, I wouldn't for a second hold it against you. I understand that I'm taking a piece of fiction that readers like you invested in for 15 years, and reinventing it in all sorts of ways. That's inevitably going to lead to some disappointment. C'est la vie! Oh, and I'm afraid there's little I can do about the names of your local bus companies. :) [/QUOTE]
