Very interesting.....curious to see where it goes. For anyone interested, the final outcome was the result of double 6's on the opening roll of the match... Whenever this happens, I have a homemade pre-match mayhem chart that I use... Thought it was a good opportunity to present how Tauran's personality changes as he gets older (while his appearance gets younger)... I often refer to them in this manner... 2119... Tauran the Agitator 2123... Tauran the Loner 2125... Tauran the Peacekeeper 2129... Tauran the Leader Always appreciate the continued interest, my friend... Many thanks! Super interesting to see how you write Tauran in Crossroads. In my fed, his personality was directly tied to his reverse aging, going from a grizzled vet to a main eventer in his prime, to a distracted and frustrated rookie. Truly one of the greatest and coolest characters ever.

With so many possibilities, a fed like this also presents its own unique challenges... Chief among them is trying to remain patient - There are so many storylines just waiting to begin and it can be difficult waiting for the right time... Vanimal - Surprises come in two forms... Some characters are really impressive and performing above where I would have expected - Of course, She Devil is the prime example... But, JoD is another good one... On the flip side, there are those that did not accomplish what I had hoped - The Perfect Specimen and Matador of M83 have already been evicted and I fear The Amazing Mann might not be far behind... Crossbones - Aethran Civil War? That is a tale that is begging to be retold... Just a matter of when... Always appreciate the stellar feedback, my friends... Many thanks! Could there be a a power struggle between three MoWs in different times or alternate universes? Thakur, Spike and Overmaster? Could the Aethrans want to rule not just planets but time itself? Just a thought to toy around with... This would be a very interesting take on an Aethran angle... And something I never even considered before... Question: Wasn't Massacre also Minister of War (up until his assassination)? This is the kind of idea that I would want to execute properly - Giving it the attention it deserves... So, it may not come to fruition for a little while... Always appreciate your enthusiasm, my friend... Many thanks!

Truly one of the greatest and coolest characters ever. One of the most fun aspects of this game is seeing how different players approach the same characters with their own unique perspectives... As you can tell, I have taken the exact opposite approach with Tauran - Gauging his attitude by his actual age and not his physical one... Making the older looking Tauran the more impatient rookie, while the one with the youngest appearance is the seasoned veteran... It's going to be somewhat heartbreaking to force three of these characters into exile when the time comes... Unfortunately, simultaneously handling four different Taurans for an extended period of time is a task I don't really wish to undertake... Could get confusing - For me, if not the reader... Truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, my friend... Many thanks!

yes, Massacre was Minister of War
Thakur, Massacre, Spike, Vengeance and Aethran OverMaster have all held said title.

So the show ended with each Tauran 1-1, can't wait to see where it goes.
Kronos is out of time and space, why can't they all stay??...... They literally fought each other and no paradox happened or the Universe didn't explode.
LET THEM STAY!.... LET THEM STAY!... LET THEM STAY!... LET THEM STAY!

They literally fought each other and no paradox happened or the Universe didn't explode. LET THEM STAY!.... LET THEM STAY!... LET THEM STAY!... LET THEM STAY!Haha! You make a compelling argument... And Mesmer will probably think on this particular situation for a little bit to see where it should go... He's probably concerned that keeping multiple versions of the same individual at the Crossroads could lead to the formation of a dangerous faction... So far, he's had a good thing going with very little to challenge his ultimate authority... No sense in taking needless risks... That being said, the show did end in a four-way tie... So, something needs to happen... Maybe Mesmer needs to bring on a few consultants to lend a helping hand... Always appreciate your valuable input, my friend... Many thanks!

Really cool show. Mesmer has his hands full with 4 Taurans. Can't wait to see what he decides!

You have struck the nail on the proverbial head, barflymike4ever and Vanimal... Mesmer does indeed have his hands full trying to manage this single situation... And it might be something he wants to deal with sooner rather than later... But, why? What is his true underlying concern? Regardless, he has other matters that he can't ignore... It's onto the next show at the Crossroads... Always appreciate the great feedback, my friends... Many thanks!
