Out of Character: That's what the secondary skills is going to help with, it'll give our characters some other skill to fall back on if our powers are like more for detection and not combat.
Out of Character: One of the big problems is that three characters may not be enough to complete this scenario, similar to what Krusten said before, but how we are going to get new players? I see some active players in the role-playing games like Sgtlee and Oinodaemon but I am not even sure if they want to join here.
Out of Character: When they join, they join. I don't want to actively pursue anyone because when you do that they feel like your begging them to play and they drop out at some point of the game. Besides JB said he wanted to add these other features first so there is no rush.
Out of Character: That will like totally do the trick. The only thing with being a lion is that it leaves you open to be shot at because you'd be big and have your attention only focused on one person.
