The f bomb is my favorite word.  It's got a fascinating etymology.  The bilabial "f" sounds great.  It's one syllable.  It multitasks.  It's connotative.  I adore it.  Please tell me you'd use a shi-t ton of f bombs if you go this route.The mimir is probably going to appeal to most of us because you provided tie-ins to all our characters.  I know my eyes bugged out with glee when I read "Delta blues."  Shayuri in particular might welcome a tie-in.  Shard is so very skittish right now.  Having a tie-in for Shard might help make her feel more comfortable.  Then again, it might totally wig her out.  Potay-to, potah-to.I sense that you most want to play the mimic.  If that's the case, then that's what you should opt for.  This idea is creepy as hell. I love it.  It might also work super really well if you think you prefer to post less often.  Playing the NPC villain would allow you to cameo for spurts of time, then be vacant for stretches when/if you had other things going on.</blockquote>
