[Diaspora] Diaspora Digest, Vol 7, Issue 12

[Neil Duffell]

 Hi Ken,

I'd ask all of the involved parties if it'd be OK to chose two of the
original player's (who were sat next to each other in the original
generation circle)  and their character's to riff off and create an attached
loop onto the original generation circle. You could insert additional
modifications the original PC's backgrounds a bit, if appropriate with all
parties concerned.
