One of these days I may do as a fan thing actual Traveller sourcebooks for DWAITAS. But much of it will be from my shoddy memory.

In reply to Stanley Newton (msg # 40):

He's just making excuses and sulking because I'm better.

Personally I love Smoke's earlier thought process

"She had to be Sereth now".

Damn straight.  Heroes of Draconia don't grow on trees, you know.

They grow in towers instead!

Sereth was fun; but it's easier to get Kalath into trouble.

It's gonna be all about honner now. :)



Oh, cool. I've got a lot of them, but the price is still as much as you'd pay for one from DriveThruRPG. I've never done Humble before, I've gone and bought the books now.

After this current arc, I do plan on travelling to Draconia so that Bluetrav can humbly present herself to Sereth to learn swordsmanship and dignity. I think that Sereth will like this much more dignified Traveller more than smart mouth Blond Trav (although I definitely felt definite affection between those two.)

"Now I understand what you were trying to tell me all that time." Bluetrav is now expressing Sereth traits.

Humble Bundle also goes to charity! I'm dropping $15 on it because it's the Trav thing to do. I bought the last bundle.

-belatedly catches up-

Sairen the Catchable. I love it.

Well, he can't have that name any more. :) Of course, catching him might be easy and keeping him the hard part.


Smoke's hunch might be metagamey, but I figured it was reasonable and shows Kalath's place in the team. :)

One thing I forgot to mention, but there is no DriveThruRPG integration, unlike with the BundleofHolding rpg bundles. They won't get added to your DriveThruRPG library.

Trav, I don't think I want the Orrery to work that way.

I have talked before about my frustration with Fortress TARDIS and this gives you a wonderful tool for no one to ever have to interact with the world.

Kalath gets to be Tegan. Lovely...

No no, I just want to find them and then we'll run out after them. I just want to use the sensors.

I'll edit to reflect that. TARDIS is staying put. That was never my intention, in fact its's mad dangerous for the TARDIS to be anywhere near the cannister.

While I am expecting Ms Kismet to be Fortuna-Evers-Warlock-The Beast, I would be DELIGHTED if it was another Time Lord, any time lord, even an enemy.

The Rani!

Because it's always the Rani. Every time there's a mysterious woman, fans speculate it's the Rani. :) At least this one dresses the part. ;)

Though since Missy, that speculation has turned a lot more to 'the Master'.

If a Ms Kismet turned up on Doctor Who, people would assume it was a reference to Roger Delgado's wife.

Well, a Cheetah Person could fairly be described as a mouth on legs.

Actually my comment was more about the companion who only barely knew the old timelord before they regenerated; and then separated from the regenerated timelord and explaining to someone else about them.

I don't like Davison's era, but I think at least part of it is that, with the exception of Nyssa, he had truly horrendous companions.

The weirdest part was in "Castrovalva", when the Watcher gives everyone a ride home and and the Doctor stays to deal with the mess, then Tegan suddenly decides "nope, I'm better off with the Doctor", despite him being a complete stranger and Castrovalva being obviously not safer than Earth. I think she spent the next few seasons regretting that decision.

The fact is, that only Adric really knew the Doctor for long enough to consider staying with the Doctor post-regeneration. Nyssa at least has the excuse that her entire planet is destroyed. The Doctor was also Adric's best hope of getting back to E-space.

It's never even implied that Tegan's real parents are dead is it? Just 'Auntie Vanessa'? It's been a long time since I watched Logopolis - and even longer since Castrovalva.

She's an Australian expat, so I'd assume she has no family in England. However, her cousin and grandather appear later, so she had surprisingly many family members in the show.

I feel most issues with Tegan can be explained by her being a Queenslander. :D

Hey now! My aunt is a Queenslander; though not by birth. Actually I think the only state that I don't have immediate family to have at least visited is WA.

Of course, WA is at the end of the world. :) My father's parents hail from South Australia, but otherwise we're solidly Western Australia. We've been to all states and territories except the Northern Territory, but that was only when I was a kid.

My family is -very- strongly connected to early South Australian life, as well as one particular town in Victoria. My partner jokes my family is South Australian royalty.
