Ok, I PM'd
Arry and Durelin (both excellent RPGers who are currently RPG-less) about the possibility of taking up the characters of Chakka or Ferethor...
Durelin said she would like to play, but wasn't sure whether she would have the time; she is currently considering. I hope she will want to come in and take on one of the characters, but we'll have to see how it goes there.
Arry, on the other hand, said he would like to play - but doesn't want to take on the roles of either Ferethor or Chakka. However, he suggested the possibility of creating a new slave character which he would formulate a profile for and join in with sometime next week. Is this alright with everyone?
It is understandably quite awkward to come onto a game with the intention of playing a ready-made character who has already made a few posts - especially Chakka, as Fordim was such a busy bee with alliances and sub-plots all over the shop. I'll try a few other RPGers to see whether they would like to take on either slave role. I will also PM Dunwen to see if she's still alive and/or interested
