Oops, missed that on the character chart by mistake. But I’m now 95% sure patience was one of the six.

Miki · 2013-11-20T00:36:04.000Z

Damn, it’s not there! I’ll make sure it is. Thanks for your condolences. I miss her everyday. :’( I hope she is too.

Miki the characters to me seem really old… Can they be a bit younger

Miki · 2013-11-20T03:00:44.000Z

@JLBH: No problem. How young? A certain age range?

Natsu_Dragneel · 2013-11-20T03:47:27.000Z

Which of the characters are romance options

ChimeraLord · 2013-11-20T07:45:17.000Z

I say keep chasity at 34 but make some in their late 20s like maybe 24-28

Miki · 2013-11-20T09:19:33.000Z

@Natsu_Dragneel: All of them.
@ChimeraLord: Alright. I can change that.

Aera · 2013-11-20T10:06:17.000Z

In my opinion just a tiny amount of introduction then let the PC find out the other information by interacting with them.

I’m interested in Thomas because he got poisoned >:) and Bellatrix because of the suicide thingy :-S

Miki · 2013-11-20T14:12:48.000Z

@Aera: I know right? Even though I’m writing it, I’m still wondering how the hell he got poisoned in the first place. 8-|

God_of_Demonz · 2013-11-20T16:16:59.000Z

Bad mackerel? Blowfish?

Miki · 2013-11-20T16:41:22.000Z

@God_of_Demonz: It’ll be something he eats but the food he eats will have poison inserted into it unsuspectingly by someone. Not fish though.

God_of_Demonz · 2013-11-20T17:31:00.000Z

So not a poisoned river in a poor country?

ChimeraLord · 2013-11-20T17:33:17.000Z

An assasin or person with a grudge

Miki · 2013-11-20T17:34:17.000Z

No, but enemies from a foreign country who appeal to him as saints to gain his trust until they can dispose of him.

God_of_Demonz · 2013-11-20T17:41:17.000Z

So he distrusts and hates saints now? Was he the son of a king or something of that nature?

Miki · 2013-11-20T18:00:15.000Z

Sort of. You see, in Thomas’ intro, he’s the oldest of five children (two sisters and two brothers) en route to become king/queen of a certain country. Since sibling rivalry was high back then, one of his siblings (won’t say who yet) hired a pair of assassins to kill him in order to get the throne. When he died, he muttered something about wanting to destroy anything that appealed to him as too good. In the written story of From Beyond The Stars, Thomas has the ability to read people’s emotion and thoughts before they even know after he passes on and is taken to Solaris. I might add that to the game as well.

Miki · 2013-11-20T18:05:51.000Z

Okay, I’m stumped. I followed @lordirishdas little walkthrough and it gives me this.
line 144: Non-existent variable ‘name’ Am I doing something wrong?

Miki · 2013-11-20T19:34:12.000Z

Nevermind, I’ll just upload a very short demo and have you guys try a little. I’m having trouble trying to put the file onto a public folder but whenever I click on it to enable it, nothing happens.

Aera · 2013-11-20T22:14:09.000Z

create a variable at the startup.txt

*create name ""

Miki · 2013-11-20T22:32:29.000Z

@Aera: Yay!! Thanks so much! It works!
