Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.
Author's Note: One thing to remember about Amy (or at least my interpretation of her), especially at this point, is that she uses Vicky as a yardstick for goodness. This is generally fine, as Vicky is a generally good person who generally wants to do good things, her instances of police...

Author's Note: One of the reasons why so many chapters get so long is that when I outline a chapter from the initial ideas from the main outline, I usually conceive of a specific note or scene I want the chapter to end on, or a series of things that need to be completed in the chapter. In...
Author's Note: Amy's been pretty pathetic a lot in this story, and that's because she's kind of a pathetic wet cat of a person. But the reason she's like that in canon is because of very specific circumstances. We do see that there's more to her under that surface layer, and we're seeing more of...
Author's Note: I can't really capture Varric's voice as an author very well - we get a few samples of his writing, from the Hard in Hightown Codex entries, and the bits at the end of Trespasser where Cassandra reads All This Shit is Weird, so I tried to at least get in the same vibe, but I can't...
You are indeed capable of creating all manner of hybrids and even monstrosities, no?
Amy stared at Solas as his words echoed in her mind, bouncing around it like a rubber ball off a wall.
Two years of hiding the full range of what she could do. Even Vicky didn't really know - or at least...
True.
Of course, now that I think on it. one can argue Medieval 2 Total War sort of allows something closer to this (though it really lacks the depth of insanity CK can do) in the way it allows a mix between RTS and Grand Strategy like that.
