Unless otherwise noted, the characters and places in these stories
are the product of my own twisted mind and bear only marginal resemblance
to real people living or dead... (except where noted) All fiction is
copyrighted by me and now that that's out of the way... enjoy.
Exception Notes:
- Tracker : Tracker is the creation of Gray Beaker
(and used with his kind permission in exchange for a cameo appearance
in at least one upcoming story.)
- Lightning: Lightning is the creation of Sal Robertson
(and she has a say in what Lighting is and what she would or
wouldn't do.)
- Wind: Wind is also the creation of Sal Robertson,
(but I can take a lot more literary licences with him since he's really
an NPC)
- Equipment and situations created by FASA (obviously)
