I have no objections to either way! And like Rongar is curious about Mala, I'm curious to see how it develops!

@doubar I'm curious about how you are going to develop Mala. She is one of my favourite characters too. But I'm not sure that she doesn't know nothing about Maeve. That would mean she didn't watch over her sons during the year the sorceress was on board. (She looked like she knew who Bryn was though, so I suppose it should be the same for Maeve). I had the impression that she pretended to not know Maeve in order to push Sinbad to talk about her, and let him release his inner sorrow. I can wait for the bio You are going to use Beth account for Mala?

I dont think there's any rush to bring Mala in right now, we already have Caipra to give the crew any warning of impending danger. If Mala's also there, then there must be fairly good explanation; & being one of the dark side, *cough cough* i can say there isn't that much danger involving the basra scene that'd have mala concerned enough to pop in! ;D but it'd be interesting to see how her character develops, like rongar & derm said!

@derm: well, to me it seemed she really didn't know about Maeve. How I see it, Mala's ghost had been set free the moment her sons (or rather Sinbad ;P ) had gotten into severe trouble. This trouble had begun the day Maeve disappeared and Sinbad took his turn to the dark side. I imagine her to have "awaken" then, watching her sons and thus getting to know Bryn as well. The day when Scratch caught him was the ultimate danger - Sinbad could have gotten lost to darkness. And this was the point where Mala's ghost left the depths it had been imprisoned in (-> the ship sank due to black magic) to come to her son's aid. At least that's how I see it. Oh, and well, about that: Well, to me it seemed she knew her son good enough to see that the one he was searching for meant a lot to him and just like every mother would, she asked him about that. Uh, well, yes. I hope I can live up to that. But, yeah, I like her too and will do my best to describer her well. Although I might point out that to me her central aspect is the mother she is. I will try to give her depth, but don't know to which extent I will be able to. Most likely, yes. *shrugs* @firouz: Well, as I said I'm in not in a rush either. Mala: Hehe, you have no idea how curious I am. ;P @talya: Well, exactly my point as well. So, if there isn't any objection I'd say we'll leaver her out and let her join the game some later point of time. After all, you're right - we don't even have a Scratch till now and I think Rumi wouldn't be a strong enough thread (sorry, Rumi, but after all Mala didn't show up in Season 1 at all ) to make her come back. Plus, Sinbad's turning to the good side now ... so no reason for the ghost to rise again.

Yes, that we dont have a scratch till now, we can assume Rumi would not be that much of a threat for having Mala back again. *sighs* Does anyone know what the cousins (Rumi & Rhyad) are up to? It's been so long since we last heard of them.

Nopes, don't know anything. Sinbad tried to e-mail them a couple a times, but obviously they have kinda vanished.

Unfortunately, no. I send them e-mails regularly, hoping there will be a answer eventually.

I was wondering when this storyline would pick up. I know we are waiting for them, but there is only so much stuff to do on board the ship before they reached Basra.

The storyline is supposed to start when they are in Basra. We have the possibility to keep ourselves busy with exploring the city, the tavern thread and meeting Caipra, but yes, I see the problem, too

Yeah, it really is a pity. I for one think we should take some time to reach Basra, then go meet Caipra and Serendib, maybe explore the town a bit. Telling from the current pace this will take us some weeks anyway and hopefully the two are back then. *crosses her fingers for that*

Yeah, hopefully they would come back. I was really interested in Rumina's plot. But I will be willing to play Rumina till she comes back. After all, Bryn shares her pedigree. ;D But I don't think Rumina will be too happy about that. We have a Scratch. Who? @sinbad: Did you try emailing her to her real email address, not the pm? If Rumina have not logged on, she may not know about the pms.

Sure, Sinbad could give you the planned plot but I wouldn't want to betray Elektra that way. After all you wouldn't be happy if another suddenly took over Bryn or Firouz without aksing you - even if it was just temporarily, would you? We have a Scratch. Who? Huh? No, we haven't.

Firouz: Yes, I have sent her real pms, both her and Rhyad.
@all: I agree with Doubar here. Having someone temporarily step in for Rumi would be something I would only do if there is no other way and also since I know all details of the plot I would prefer to take over Rumina to keep surprises to a maximum for the rest of the players. Firouz could take over Rhyad maybe who is partly involved in this all. But anyways, guys, this is something I am not yet considering right now, because I have hope they will be back at some point.

oh that's why you don't want to come to Basra yet? You are waiting for Rumina and Rhyad? (I was waiting for you...^_^)
I've never talked to Rumina and Rhyad yet...They didn't come here I arrived...
