I'm still fleshing out their personalities but Richard is a rather sweet and ambitious person who struggles with public speaking. I can imagine he'd get on with most people but he'd prefer a roommate that talks to him, someone he can be friends with.

Hawke's pretty much a selfish and uncaring person. His destiny is fine by him so he doesn't care that others might dislike their destiny. He's quite good to the few friends he has, though, he looks out for them so he's not a total git...just about 97.9%. I think his roommate would ideally be someone who could deal with his moping and doesn't badger him about being selfish...although the idea sounds interesting.

I'd like to ask if Hawke might be considered for Hamish's roommate, VictorianMycomancer? It's just a suggestion, as Hawke is about as non-rules-orientated as you can get and Hamish sounds like the kind of person he'd get on okay with.

I think Hawke sounds like a good roomie for Hamish. They're both jerks on some level, so they can probably comiserate on that. Although there may be one problem, if they're roomies I'd be making your characters part of my extended universe, (Hawke at least would be showing up in Hamish's storybook.) and we both have Muffet kids. I'm cool with that if you'd want to make them siblings, half or otherwise. Honestly I think Brynneth and Linus would make cute siblings, at the very least I might wanna draw them together. Since I'm a big fan of how much the costumes contrast but are also really simmilar. Oh cripes, I forgot about the possiblity of extended universes. But I'd be cool with it. I'm kind of apprehensive about Brynneth and Linus being siblings, though, but that's just down to the fact that I'm not sure how siblings and destiny works in EAH. If the rules were clearer when I'd be all for it. I suppose they will become clearer in due course, probably when Holly and Poppy O'Hair come into the picture but that this moment in time...I'm stuck on a response, which makes me feel terrible.

Yeah, that's my concern as well, especially since theres DJ Melody Piper. But she's a Dj, not a pest control person, so...

At any rate we could just kinda wing it until they give us a concrete answer. (And then maybe Linus can run off and stick Brynneth with they're cruddy destiny.)

At any rate, totally up for Hawke being Hamish's roomie. That's a good plan of action, I kind of like the idea of Brynneth getting lumbered with said rubbish destiny...well, it's fun to play around with characters' emotions. So I'm game if you are, it just might take a while for me to get a page up for Hawke as school kind of takes up most of my time.

Cool, cool. I'll be getting Hamish's up soon, then I'm off to work on the diaries!
