Thanks Scotley
And yeah, I'm hoping so too. I really hate losing people, but I've done my share of ghosting and am not really keen on doing any more. On the flip side of the coin, if you are not enjoying the game, speak up. I will do what I can to address any concerns. I don't consider myself to be a skilled GM, and am more than open to feedback. It is, ultimately the most painfu .... er, effective way to identify areas needing improvement.

Yeah, I know. I have been meaning to post up something about that but wanted to find something first. In summary, it boiled down to a very eloquent description of this point; no posts, no game. I can only assume that as Eluvan and Diirk have been around but not posted, they are no longer interested in playing. So at this point I plan to edit them out at the next available opportunity.
While I am at it, some other house keeping I have been remiss in not dealing with.
Sado - I read over some of the AFF material you directed me too. I like "Courga", the deity the Demonkeep of Telak is related to, and the lion association. The lion itself is not found in in the Five Kingdoms, but I was thinking that Courga could be a exotic (ie as in from the Three Empires) deity that has found a place in the Five Kingoms scheme of things, symbolised by the lion. Apologies if this is a bit vague or if I am off with the spelling, it was a while ago when I read all this, and when I went back the other day I couldn't find the pages I had read.
Languages - Again, when I went looking, I couldn't find any AFF reference to the languages of the Five Kingdoms. I think that in this game the Five Kingdoms have a common tongue. (Sado, I notice that you have Cealic listed in your languages. Is that from AFF, or did I give you that? Its kinda sounds like one of mine.) There is also a language for each of the Three Empires. That will cover the main human languages in the region around you. There is a "common" tongue, but it is limited to a collection of basic nouns, verbs and adjectives of various origins. Its adequet for getting directions and a meal, but not much more than that. Few use it except to communicate when no common language exists. Other than that, the other standard languages remain - Draconic, Dwarven, Elven, etc.
OK. Again, apologies for having taken so long to get around to these things. If there is anything else you want to discuss, just shout.

First Post
Well, doghead, I for one am really enjoying the game. I wasn't too keen on psionics, but I figured I'd give it a try because I really like the FF setting. You're doing a good job with it (and I'm finding psionics are not a thing to be feared after all). You've really made Titan come alive for me.
Oh, the old guy in the tree, that was classic FF material-a little silly but somehow fits right in the setting. Nice job.
About the Cealic thing, you gave me that. I figured it was your name for the common language or something.

I have been dodging this for too long now.
I find running a game a lot harder than playing in one, and at the end of the day it is much easier to front up as Saanath, my merchant adventurer, or Lucan, my human pit fighter, than as the GM, the font of all things. Seeing me post everywhere but here, as players in Shamutanti, must irritate the hell out of you. It would me. Which brings us to the reason for this little confession. If you want to step down in order to invest your energies with someone more reliable, I will understand.
There are currenty 3 in game: Bendyn, Casparan, and the bandit. The bodies of your two companions now rest in the earth's embrace, and the sun is disappearing behind the hills.
So its now time to put up or shut up shop, to see who's hot and who is not here.
