Serina Diamondeye is a character from the Gods' Game story. She is the niece of Cornelius Diamondeye and bar maid at the Full Tankard Inn. Like most gnomes, Serina is an illusionist (Savage Worlds Obscure Power, limited to small burst template, affect sight, sound and feeling).

Jack Large(foot) - Halfling from the island continent of Straulia. Jack is the son of a halfling cobbler; an ironic choice of professions as halflings don't wear shoes. Jack was raised in a human city and has a rather large chip on his shoulder concerning his height.
Ballar - priest of the hunt and member of the Tehasian Rangers. Ballar travels with a huge, black Straulian wolf named Fenris.
Serena Diamondeye - gnome, niece of Cornelius Diamondeye, and bar maid at the Full Tankard Inn.. Like most gnomes, Serena's demonstrated illusionist ability (Savage Worlds Obscure Power, limited to small burst template, affect sight, sound and feeling). She's called flat face due to her petite nose, a horrid disfigurement for a gnome.
Cornelius Diamondeye - Leader of an Adventurer's Guild in Misty Bay Colony. The guilds are licensed by the King of Sun Mountian and tasked with clearing the ruins surrounding Misty Bay. The kingdom taxes treasure recovered from the ruins at extraordinary rate. Cornelius is a man of power and wealth in the Colony.
Tared Norbringer and Jordon Garthlow - A pair of adventurers formerly in Shiva's Adventuring Guild. After Shiva left the Colony the two drifted from job to job never staying with one guild for any length of time. They seem to have landed themselves on perpetual Night Watch for attempting to withhold the King's taxes for treasures found within the ruins (a charge they deny). Tared laughs and jokes almost constantly. Jordon is the down beat to every one of Tared's up beats.
Fast Larry - Another Straulian halfling. Larry betrayed Jack in Straulia then fled to escape Jack's wrath.

Interview with Trevor Croft, creator of MapTool
With a full-time job, a newborn baby, and a virtual tabletop software application project all consuming his schedule, Trevor Croft, creator and caretaker of MapTool, was kind enough to take a few moments from his own busy life to answer a few questions.

No Fault
This is another story in the Skipping Stones universe containing the first person testimony of a Blorb named Blasphornomiconiumoocus at his trial for the genocide of Planet Caractus's entire population. In his defence, it really was an accident.
The Blorb are a race of huge, tentacled, slug creatures who eat rotting meat and are bent on galactic domination. To make things worse they are powerful psychics with the ability to bend other races to their will. They stink, leave a trail of slime where ever they go, and treat all other races as lackeys who exist for the sole purpose of serving the Blorb Syndicates. There is absolutely nothing to like about a Blorb. This, of course, increases the enjoyment of writing dialogue for them.
This story, while small, is pivotal to the overall Skipping Stones arc, but it didn't fit within the other writings. The anti-hero is tangentially responsible for saving the galaxy from domination by a time shifting race of crystalline robots. Blasphornomiconiumoocus would hate to be known as the saviour of the galaxy, but that's how history documents his otherwise dreadful life.
