[QUOTE="Bad_English, post: 1534101, member: 11955"] Although no help, I second the request. Please this is a valid point, that I am ashamed I did not even consider, it would give alot of the flavor back to the rules. Sanity and flaws? Hmmmm interesting, like H. Bogart in the private eye/investigator "Flim Noir" movies; edgy with a past and a little on the crazy side. For a name hows about "Terrors Call" or "Alhazrds whisper" Hmmm obviously it got my attention. Good work. Professor Phobos, Turanil do you guys have any more ideas? The concept is great, I just wish I was as rules savy as others were, to bring something more than my flashes of weak creative illuminations to your ideas.
