Anyways.. From what little you've shown us of this mod Sir K., it looks absolutely wonderful - the concept is truly masterful, and the dialogues you've posted are intriguing. Congratulations to the authors of those banters, they are very, very good

Thanks for the encouragement K'aeloree, it is much appreciated

But, as a druid, does she take an interest in protecting nature against any harm (have in mind the Druid Grove quest) ?

Brace yourself...

YES!

(see, I do give straight answers occasionally!... )

Although more "Yes, but...", actually, since she may discover some rather more pressing and personal reasons of her own for taking an interest in the Druid Grove quest as well... or, then again, she may not. B)

One day... One day... I will make Sir K let a spoiler slip.

or, then again, she may not. 

I'll kill you.

I am rather looking forward to this project, given who is working on it, but one thing troubles me:

Is she romanceable?
Absolutely. She will be romanceable by males of any race, and possibly females as well (undecided as yet). Her main plot and subquests are not at all dependent on her being romanced, however, although there may be subtle differences and additions if she is.

I have to admit, I feel uncomfortable around lesbian romances, not to mention that it probably breaks PG-13 standard. Could you please clarify the matter? Will Crysta be romanceable by both genders or by males only?

Actually this is one of the few areas I am prepared to spoil on... after careful consideration, the romance part of the mod will be written as a male-only romance. I do not personally have anything against lesbian romances, but it doesn't sit right with the way Chrysta is developing.

I don't understand why a homosexual relationship would break the PG-13 standard, while a heterosexual relationship would not. Same-gender love isn't more "adult" than opposite-gender love, per se. If it was about the adult content in Mods, I understand. If it's simply about same gender=wrong, then I respectfully disagree.

My apologies. I was merely curious as I am the author of the now-sleeping Lockheart Romance, a lesbian romance Mod that would focus on "romance", rather than "lesbian".

However, since Sir K. has replied, I'll refrain from ranting and end my message here. Please, do not start a discussion about the different views of homosexuality. It could take forever and would be very unpleasant.

Fine, keep your secrets, but as some of what you're hinting at sounds vaguely similar to some ideas I'd independently developed over the last month and a half, any chance I could get you to fill out something along these lines, either publicly there or privately to me? Once you fall back onto the face of the earth, I mean *sigh*

Second, after reading your comments on beta-testing Saerileth and its utility in learning WeiDU and IE coding, I volunteer to beta test Chrysta...someone point out the specific link for this sort of offer that likely exists but I'm missing, willya?

[EDIT]As for lesbian romances breaking the PG-13 standard, there's certainly no objective reason that they would, but in my experience most of these rating schemes couldn't poke objectivity with a ten-foot pole. I imagine the issue is the "controversial" nature of same-sex relationships. Since I personally oppose making concessions to unreasonable people, as a matter of principle, I intend to ignore this sort of "concern" with my own mod design and recommend you do likewise...

Actually, I don't think anything I made would ever make PG-13... :D

Having recently touched down on Planet SHS again, I can confirm that I will happily provide you with the info you requested. Expect to hear from me in the next day or so.

EDIT: As of 11/01/006, the Wiki entry has now been modified to include Chrysta.

You haven?t missed the volunteer link, as I haven?t even started canvassing for playtesters yet (there is still a lot of work to do before we get close to that bag o? monkeys!). However, thank you for you kind offer and I will certainly make a careful note of your offer - and I promise that I will get back in touch once I start thinking about beta testing. Thanks again.

I just wanted to say again that I love this project. I always like new NPCs, and also anything romancable. So, go Sir K, go! Oh, and I love this smiley:
