Yes, yes, the rumors are true! My lovely wife has decided to throw her hat into Sven’s ring and write one of the stories I’ve been bugging her to write for the last year or so! This is good, because I’m going to be way to freakin busy to participate this time around.
Pop over to her blog and nag her!

All right, we’ve got Vilhelm the Nuravol, Olwen the Vesna, and Nathanael the Soravol. We know that the Nuravol and the Soravol are rival tribes with ancient history in common, and we know that each has a “mirror” tribe on a higher plane — the Hild and the Vesna. We also know that Nathanael was raised as a Nuravol, and that he is gone. Vilhelm and Olwen are looking for him. (more…)

For the record, I decided a few things about this character in advance of picking a name:
- This character has some connection to Vilhelm. I’m leaning toward “last surviving family,” but I’m open to other possibilities.
- This character disappeared from Vilhelm’s life, and he is searching for this person.
- For Vilhelm, locating this character means accepting guidance from Olwen.
- Olwen has a vested interest in the two characters reunion. I don’t feel like figuring that out at the moment, though.
- This character will be a sharp contrast to Vilhelm — where he is strong, this person is frail; Vilhelm prefers to fight evil, this person prefers to nurture good; and so on. Seriously, it would be so boring if they were both Lawful Good!
I’m going to run the random generator at BehindtheName for both a male name and a female name, and… well, basically just pick the cooler sounding one. (more…)
