The Blackstar Chronicles Novelization/Character Names

**Battlegrinder** · 10-26-2012, 07:15 PM

Ok, Chapter 12 is finally up.

! Vance and company are fighting their way through the Red Sun pirate ship, and have encountered a few surprises along the way. They also meet a bear.

The data file contains info on the Ursan federation military forces, which I'd edited out of the last chapter to reduce the size of the data file.

I'm also getting to the point where the character's personalities are starting to dictate their actions. Karaai and Vance in particular have a few points I was proud of writing.

Figment seems very bugged on mobile now so I'll wait till the fanfiction site gets updated.

I'll get the FF.net version posted shortly. Be nice if FF's uploading process wasn't such a pain in the behind.

**Battlegrinder** · 10-27-2012, 11:42 AM

Ok, FF.net has been updated.

**Cahaun** · 10-30-2012, 04:23 PM

Ok thanks, Battle. I'll start reading it soon.

**Leftro** · 11-05-2012, 11:22 PM

Very cool.

**Battlegrinder** · 11-06-2012, 12:05 AM

Thanks, glad you like it.

Sorry, but things have been really busy as usual so I just want to let you know I'm still supporting you and your literary project.

Thanks, I appreciated that.

Chapter 13 is out. Vance discovers that fighting through the ship to rescue Allison was the easy part. She had a mission of her own to complete, and now its up to Vance and his squad to help her out. But when things go wrong, Vance will have all his skills put to test. Also, some pirates have a really bad day.

Chapter data file contains info on the Mode, and I've also updated the data file covering the Ursan Federation with a little more info.

Also, check out the Blackstar Chronicles Description Contest over in the contests section, for another way to contribute to the novel.

Whoa you've been busy Battle. I must keep up with this some more. And yay, Blue Hair soon?

Yeap, coming soon.

Would be coming sooner if I hadn't discovered Spiral Knights.

Add meeeee. Karaai. I haven't played in a while, though. Don't remember if that's my name or not.

If that fails, add me on Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/id/bronislav84/

But you gotta tell me who you are. I don't accept just anybody you know.

Ok, chapter 14 is up. This might be one of the last chapter for a few weeks, since I have finals coming up, plus the next arc is very complex, and I'm still working on figuring out how its going to work.

**iRusher** · 11-18-2012, 09:55 AM

Sounds cool..

**Magnetom** · 11-18-2012, 11:32 PM

I'm not really sure. "destryoasage" isn't really a realistic name for someone to have, and it would sound awkward to put it into the novel.

Ok I read the story yesterday and I'm liking how you set the stage for the Red Sun story. There are a few things that could be improved (Constructive Criticism here)

The first thing I noticed was the sudden *wham* they're attacking the Red Sun pirates immediately right after a description on the history of Red Sun. Maybe if you take this area and give it a small extension and ease up on how fast this part came.

Second thing is Shortclaw's intro. For anyone who never played PL, they wouldn't know what he looks like. More detail on looks, environment, and the overall mood in the air can help readers put pictures in there head.

Third is just spell checking. Just small typos here and there.

I'll be going back over my Lore Page and probably make some fixes here and there. I know it hasn't been updated recently on the current new logs, but I'm also thinking of putting it all on a wiki site made a long time ago.

Thanks for the advice. One of the reason I'll be taking a while to get a new chapter up is because I'm going back and doing a lot of editing, fixing mistakes and so on.
