Finished reading REXXX's own Retro, "Desecration".
It was interesting seeing him in the player role, and moreso seeing you running the show, Peach.
I'm now significantly more accepting of his earlier claim. Galder and company seemed to simply annihilate anything that got in their way with only minor trouble. Even his duel with Dusan was more one sided than I think I've ever really seen in any Retro game. It was humbling.
Interestingly enough, this Retro is the first to really make me want to create a Dark Sider. Peach, Rianna's story has been amazing, and definitely heartbreaking, and Xavier's dissociation makes for very intriguing dialogue, but "Desecration" really hits home what's so alluring about the Dark Side, that clear grasp on power.
Which is as much a testament to your performance as GM as it is REXXX's longevity with Galder and skill at roleplaying. Good job, the both of you.

That duel was not actually meant to be so one-sided; I had screwed up a bit when putting together stats for Dusan :P
I am not terribly good at running games, and the idea of that one was more to show how the Dark Side dynamic came to be than to be a super-personal one like the other ones have been. And Galder is certainly one of the more power-hungry Darkies
So, thanks
Also, on the subject of Rianna's story being heartbreaking (which it is, she depresses me sometimes)...apparently it's worked out that when she first fell, she became somewhat suicidal while trying to accept that fact. So...yeah. That wasn't exactly what I had in mind originally...
Yeah I'm really shifting towards the angle of her really being someone who dislikes the Dark Side She'll never stop hating Rand for manipulating her like he did.
Galder has gone from RAWR SMASH to trying to be a little more sophisticated and capable, aside from his ability to murder all things with ease. Armies don't follow a crazy bloodthirsty grunt.
Glad you enjoyed seeing me as a player! You should go back through the old games to see the evolution of Galder. It's been interesting.
I'm going to be a bit slow on updating for the next month. While work is slowing, they're bumping me back to nights, which does not work great with my schooling. So my apologies to anyone wanting to get a move on.
