Thanks, Emily. One of the best compliments I could ever hope to receive is that I "get" someone else's character. Your responses in the Ask Question Lad thread made it a lot easier to get a handle on him, though.
Btw, I've PMed Abin Quank already but he hasn't replied yet. I think real life is keeping him pretty busy.
Whew, that looks like a pretty powerful villain. Can't wait for his appearance.

My latest post has made it so that they are planning what to do next. I'm thinking we skip the dinner scene and go straight to "So we're roommates", which allows the male characters to interact with each other. In China my class was forced to room with different people "to get to know each other better", which was interesting. With four guys on the trip it's practical for two guys to share a room.
The next day will be mostly a free day. Emily will get the permits, Sebastian will get a new phone, etc. Angdar Fel told me he wanted his character to explore Fawcett City.

FYI, I live 40 minutes outside Manhattan and spend quite a lot of time there for work (for over 8 years now) so let me know if you've got any questions about the Big Apple!

Also, to be realistic, I'll only post every 2-3 days. So I'll try to jump in when I can but if you're trying to move things forward fast, you probably won't want to wait for me.
I wont keep Renly entirely mysterious that long.

Thank you! That will be very important once we get there. All I know for now is that I want our heroes to get a place to rest in Staten Island because I want to keep the tradition of no super-hero fights ever occurring in Staten Island. Thank you for checking in and I look forward to your next post in the story. Speaking of which, I guess it's time to organize our path. I have re-arranged the list to group the countries by geographic location.
South America Brazil- city of Belem, Amazon River, city of Manaus Ecuador - Vilcabamba, legendary lost city of the Incas Peru - Machu Picchu Asia Cambodia- The Angkor Archaeological Park China - the Forbidden City; the Great Wall Nepal- ancient city of Bhaktapur in the Kathmandu Valley; the Himalayas Philippines- the Banaue Rice Terraces, the Puerto Prinsesa Subterranean River, the Tubbataha Reefs Marine Park Thailand- the ruins of Ayutthaya Africa Egypt- Great Pyramids North America USA - Las Vegas, New York, the Grand Canyon, Florida

Do not worry about it. We're entering a bit of an interlude so we can decide where to go first. I want to use Flashend to test out the Stat system and that might slow us down a bit too.

Those sound like good plans, to me. I like the "so we're roommates" bit, to further flesh out the guys and highlight their differences from one another.
Thanks for rearranging the itinerary, Emily.
I actually think we can afford to take our time. It is a road trip, after all. Things won't have to speed up until much later in our story.

I'm going to be busy most of tonight and tomorrow, so I have decided to post this now. We need to decide what our next destination will be. Therefore, I have a couple of questions for our group.
1) Which continent would you like to visit next?
2) How do we want to usually travel?
3) What would you like to do in the next location?

I suggest finishing North America first. Fawcett City is in the American Midwest, so why not Vegas and the Grand Canyon?
Then on to New York, then Florida, and then South America.
To do in Vegas - see the famous shows and hit the casinos. Also sounds like a nice place to get into a tussle with some spies. For the Grand Canyon, how about a campout?

That makes a good amount of sense. That route is logical and gives us plenty of options.
I would like to test the Stat system, but I want it to feel natural and not forced. I would like to set up a battle between Invisible Brainiac and Flashend before the group leaves Fawcett City.

IB's set to visit the Floating Garden and the Haunted Railway Tunnel. Either place would be good for a battle. I can get IB there, and you can write the battle

Thank you, I think the Haunted Railway Tunnel would be a good choice.
