D4,
Your stories are fun! They're in keeping with how I view the faction leaders, and their characterization is fresh and crisp. You've offered us a new twist on a sharp but ultimately unethical Zak (God of Planet) and a war weary Dee and her new friend, who offers a deal too good to be true (Deirdre's Deal). Keep 'em coming!!

Thanks guys!
I've been trying to write these srories with the personality of the faction leaders in mind. I don't see Zak as an evil man...but a person with few scruples when it comes to research. Kind of like the original Dr. Who (William Hartnell)
I just posted a story about Miriam...even though during gameplay she's a pain in the ass and comes off as...well, a madwoman...I don't think she could be like that and still be a leader.
Next to Zak, Deidre is one of my favs....In any short story I put her in I've tried to give her a harder edge. Yes, Deidre is a gentle, loving person...but the constant warfare and treats on Planet (at least to me) have given her a cold side....which in future stories might become a dark side...
I'm glad you guys liked my stories though! Thanks!

Just read it, and as the author responsible for the
Believers in the Spartan Chronicles, I have to say I
rather enjoyed it. You're certainly right that Miriam
tends to come off as a crazy fanatic in most of the
fiction around here; I've tried for a more balanced
approach. She may be a fanatic, but she's not crazed
and she's not evil. Not as a credible faction leader
with the magnetic charisma that she's supposed to
have, anyways.
Yang, too, tends to be written as a simple despot;
however Allie Cove and Hydro both write an excellent
Yang - chilling, remorseless, but very complex and
certainly not a petty dictator.

Interested in playing the Believers in Chiron Chronicles? or maybe the Gaians?
