IMHO this is definitely NOT off topic! I have to be working right now, so only a quick glance and three comments: 1. Shaping up nice. 2. Bad color scheme. Black background makes it hard for some to read, especially those whose sight is less than perfect for whatever reason, such as (in my case) middle age or later. Purple on black: Loiosh, attack! 3. I like the character bios. I once started taking notes for something like that myself, but it was way too much for me. You say about Aliera: Aliera e'Kieron is a rather powerful Dragonlord, and second Dragon Heir to the throne. She is the daughter of Adron e'Kieron, who was responsible for Adron's Disaster (which destroyed the capital of Dragaera City and created the Great Sea of Chaos) many years ago. She survived the disaster with the help of Sethra Lavode. Her mother is someone a little less common: Verra, the Easterners' Demon Goddess. <<Like Morrolan, Aliera is also a practitioner of elder sorcery, which in her day was illegal, but she didn't care.>> Small in stature, but large in determination, Aliera e'Kieron is a wild force. You write about her in the present tense, as we usually do about characters, but you're inconsistent in the next to last sentence, which I have marked in <<double angle brackets>>. Elder sorcery is still illegal in Vlad's time, isn't it? -- Mark A. Mandel http://world.std.com/~mam/Cracks-and-Shards/ a Steven Brust Dragaera fan website
