Hayate - You know, I've been thinking about this now that the game has no time limit - I want to avoid what I think of as "Fable Syndrome". Dunno if anyone's played Fable, but in that your character can age over the course of the game from a teenager to an old man - but everyone else, his mother and sister included, stay exactly the same age. It's really, really weird. So I kind of want to avoid that, and maybe have characters, towns etc change over time. Not sure what I'll do yet though, it might be too much work.
