Couldn't his name and words be enough to recognize him? For instance, in Marvel Universe, the character Death takes many forms.

Just give him a name, a time-traveling gimmick (he changes appearance to fit in with the crowd he's with, like in Star Trek), and roll with it.

Fair enough.

As with Lantis, I'm not only full, but I'm having to take advantage of the multiple system data trick to use extra sprites, and even then, I have to go without sprites I would've liked to use.

Okay then, so right now it looks like we'll go with just whatever we can use... but still make suggestions on sprites with colors you may not be using... or at least post which one you'll be using as one of us might be able to use that same sprite.

I guess the next thing to worry about is what's this guy's/girl's/animal's name is. Ix and I kind of thew out some more humorous ones like:

Perry the Planeswalker
Deminsion Jumper Gladus
Universal Joe
Galatic Jack

Haven't really thought of some more serious, less comedic sounding ones. Got anything up your sleeves?

Time Priestess Drandora
Chronological Terror Watchstopper

This, sirs, is the only choice.

Though you should try Stopwatcher instead of Watchstopper.

Heh, that kind of sounds like a name for a Magic the Gathering card.

Why not have both of them?

Temporal Navigator Aesir

vs.

Chronological Terror Stopwatcher

And the little plot could be that Aesir is chasing Stopwatcher around all the games. And in each game, there's a point where they're looking around for everything and whatnot.

I'm all for the story. And there being two people would mean each one could say one thing about the other two games. Like in Arc Arath, Aesir would say something about SR, and Stopwatcher say something about AA.

Though you could still only use one of them, but reference both... for example: Have Aesir in Acre Age say something along the lines of, "Where did that confounded Stopwatcher go? Maybe I should have stopped by such and such located around such and such back in Elvenia."

We actually have a good number of options avalible...

Getting back to this, is this character mainly to be a non-quest entity or is it possible to give him a little spot in your quest?

I'm not saying I want to, but if I did, maybe like a side-quest?

honestly, I think the placement of this guy should be based only where you want him. If you want him walking randomly in a town or dungeon... cool. If you want to place him in your actual main story, that's fine too.

Even if you are going to be pressed for sprites, you can even have him locked behind a door or something. That way he doesn't even have to have a model dedicated to him.

But as I see it, we all three find a place to put Aesir and another place to put Watcher. Have Aseir mention one game, and Watcher the other. And here's where it gets interesting. I will PM either Dray or you the lines for both of them to use in the respected game. You will PM either Dray and I what YOU want them to say... and Dray will pick the dialog for whatever they say in either mine or your game.

So the question is... who's going to talk about who's game? Honestly, I don't really care. So I'll just throw up Me > Dray > Ix > Me (meaning, Dray will type out what he wants Aesir and Watcher to say in my game. Ix in Drays, and me in Ix's.)

That sounds fine with me. It's up to Dranooki now.

"Dranooki"? :P

Yeah, sure, we can go with that.

Okay, so from here we need to take it to PMs. This is how it'll work.

Dray: PM me dialog from both Watcher and Aesir. Have the dialog reference your game in some how. It can be just a mention of your game or specific town... whatever. It could even be a hint towards the location of an optional dungeon. I will save that PM and then when I find the two places I will put both characters, I'll use your dialog. If you only want to use one person, that's fine too.

Ix: You'll PM Dray the same.

And I'll PM Ix in the same mannor.

The rest should be downhill from there. That sound like a game plan? We can switch around who is referencing who's game if you want to.

I've already sent mine to Ix, but it's quite interchangable and would fit in either of your games, if ever we wanted to swap.
