−	;*<b>DH's Happy Suggestion - Location Matters</b>:<i>This is going to be taking place pretty much entirely in the West, so choose goodies accordingly. Having a dot or two of Sail wouldn't hurt.

−	;*<b>DH's Happy Suggestion Mk. II - Experience</b>:<i>Be warned! XP gain will not be high and hard, although it will be assigned on a per-session basis, as I always do. Training times will be shortened some, since there'll be some travel time and all. More on this later.</i>
−
−	;*<b>DH's Happy Suggestion Mk. III - PCs, Play Areas and Foo</b>:<i>PC limits! I... don't want to go higher than 4 or 5. I can accept six, but no more than that. Also, this'll likely be played on OpenRPG... and stuff. Yes. Neat XP bonuseseseses will be given out for various things that I'm not going to get into here. Figure that outcherself. You leeches.</i>
−
−	;*<b>DH's Happy Suggestion Mk. IV - PC Type Preferences</b>:<i>As noted before, try me with ideas! But do take into account that I can handle an amoral bastard with a core of gold, but outrightly evil-types just ain't gonna work out. It's gonna be fun figuring out who can and cannot be trusted, but the line between light and dark'll be pretty neatly defined... with room for some gray areas, of course.</i>
−
−	;*<b>DH's Happy Suggestion Mk. V - Game Tone</b>:<i>You all know me by now. I have an... ah... odd sense of humor. And while this will be GLORIOUS, DANGEROUS, ULTRA-SEXY </i>ADVENTURE<i> ADVENTURE<b> ADVENTURE</b>, the general tone of the game will be not very dreary. The dangers of the Abyssals, the imminent collapse of the Realm, and all that icky angst-making stuff is, for the most part, a distant flicker on the blue horizon. Not that the West doesn't have its own problems. Nonetheless, bring your spirit of adventure... and a healthy dose of twisted life-in-the-West humor. ("Fuckin' fish! Fish in the mornin', fish at noon, fish at night! I wan' some godsdamm'd beef!" "Here, try this here. It's got the heft of beef right." "Whazzit tas' like?" "Fish." "Fucker!")</i>
