Lord Hegemon Report

A newly created position, and a blank report sheet... so, where to begin. Probably best with some results - namely those of the LH staff selection.

This took a while because I had to use a two-step application process. In stage one, nearly everyone convinced me equally, but not one enough so that I'd immediately say I'd want them. So I quickly wrote up a little test sheet with a few typical issues that might crop up during RPG development and sent that to all applicants. This first filtered out those who didn't even reply (you know who you are, slackers) and then those who didn't really hit the intended results.

Which left me with two candidates - Arania and Numaril. Arania showed me some real talent on the flavor side and Numaril was the only one to spot all the traps in my gameplay test. So, to sum it up - instead of one Praetor and two Magistrates, I have found two Praetors and herewith appoint:

Minister of Law and Praetor to the Lord Hegemon Numaril Asfageln - as my primary assistant for gameplay and stats development.

Minister of Doctrine and Praetor to the Lord Hegemon Arania Lawakiro - as my primary assistant for RPG flavor development.

And Magistrates ? None of the remaining came close, so I'll open that again. Requirements: Convince me. Until Friday, that is. If you want more details, check back in my news post of about two weeks ago - but anything that tells me you're right for RPG development will be considered.

Which brings me to another obstacle in getting started: There have been developments going on before this position was created. And, while I asked several times, I don't have the results of these developments in my inbox yet. And that means I can't integrate them, right ? So if you did anything related to RPG, please get it to my office before I make Jac extract it from you :) Or, sit on it some more months, but then don't wonder if the system is too far developed to accomodate your stuff at that time. The earlier I get the details, the more I can use from them!

And lastly, if you're not working on the development, don't forget the question thread. It's your best way to get in and get heard. Even more so when can gleam from your question what your fears are :)

Okay, now to get the material and a few to-do lists and deadlines from Jac and then we're off to do real, finalizing development. After all, you want all those shiny new powers, right ?

PS: If you have a race, power or skill that you believe is not covered by standard, don't hesitate to throw it at me early. The more of these I see early, the higher the chance I can actually put them in later (While the system is designed to be very flexible, I still have to make sure it fits in... and the weirder it is, the earlier I must know)
