[12:41:07 AM] AGWizard: does it have a name?
[12:41:13 AM] Tomas Sexington: Nope
[12:41:28 AM] AGWizard: it could be called "Nameless"
[12:41:34 AM] AGWizard: that would be a cool name
[12:41:44 AM] Tomas Sexington: Methinks not
[12:43:52 AM] AGWizard: could he duel wield?
[12:44:10 AM] Tomas Sexington: Yes
[12:44:17 AM] AGWizard: is he good at it?
[12:44:36 AM] Tomas Sexington: Mhm. But he'd prefer to just use his longsword
[12:44:55 AM] AGWizard: can he use any sword effectively?
[12:45:09 AM] Tomas Sexington: Yep
[12:45:23 AM] Tomas Sexington: Wouldn't be a master swordsman if he couldn't Arc

[12:46:10 AM] Tomas Sexington: Nope
[12:46:20 AM] Tomas Sexington: What's with the 20 questions?
[12:46:48 AM] AGWizard: it's fun to dig into the character
[12:46:57 AM] Tomas Sexington: Right
[12:48:25 AM] AGWizard: i was expecting you to be happy someone was so interested in your character
[12:48:50 AM] Tomas Sexington: Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to oblige
[12:48:58 AM] Tomas Sexington: Just wanted to know why you were asking
[12:49:57 AM | Edited 12:50:01 AM] AGWizard: How long has he been a "master"?
[12:50:29 AM] Tomas Sexington: 10-15 years, mayhap
[12:52:26 AM] AGWizard: do you think there is anymore for him to learn despite being a master?
[12:52:38 AM] Tomas Sexington: Possibly
[12:52:53 AM] AGWizard: you know what would be sweet?
[12:52:59 AM] AGWizard: sword beams
[12:54:06 AM] Tomas Sexington: Right..
[12:54:50 AM] AGWizard: swooooord beams
[12:55:07 AM] Tomas Sexington: No
[12:58:06 AM] AGWizard: don't mind me
[12:58:20 AM] AGWizard: AGWizard likes sword beams
[12:58:27 AM] Tomas Sexington: Fair enough
[1:00:58 AM] AGWizard: so he's of artalian blood?
[1:01:12 AM] Tomas Sexington: He's Artelian, yes
[1:01:15 AM] AGWizard: maybe a descendant of jett?
[1:01:21 AM] Tomas Sexington: Nope
[1:01:28 AM] AGWizard: different family?
[1:01:36 AM] Tomas Sexington: That's chronologically impossible
[1:01:50 AM] AGWizard: oh?
[1:02:19 AM] AGWizard: or does ridgire have another son?
[1:02:31 AM] Tomas Sexington: Nope
[1:02:46 AM] AGWizard: it's a mystery then huh?
[1:02:47 AM] Tomas Sexington: Xander is from the peak of the Artelian Empire
[1:02:59 AM] AGWizard: oh? another from the past
[1:03:00 AM] Tomas Sexington: Long before the Empire got wiped out
[1:03:28 AM] Tomas Sexington: Ridgire was born roughly 10 years before the Empire got destroyed
[1:04:07 AM] AGWizard: is Xander still alive?
[1:04:14 AM] AGWizard: in the current timeline
[1:04:17 AM] Tomas Sexington: Nope
[1:04:43 AM] Tomas Sexington: Xander died in war long before the Empire was wiped out
[1:05:53 AM] AGWizard: what made him blind? a parallel case via werewolves claws to the eyes?
[1:06:16 AM] Tomas Sexington: Not sure
[1:06:23 AM] Tomas Sexington: Maybe werewolves
[1:06:27 AM] Tomas Sexington: Maybe it happened in battle
[1:07:01 AM] AGWizard: this is sort of like an interview
[1:07:07 AM] Tomas Sexington: Indeed
[1:07:40 AM] AGWizard: how does it feel to be the star of the new movie, "The Artelian Legacy"?
[1:07:58 AM] Tomas Sexington: xD
[1:08:04 AM] Tomas Sexington: Pretty good, man
[1:08:12 AM] Tomas Sexington: It's really exciting to be able to tell this story
[1:09:51 AM | Edited 1:11:04 AM] AGWizard: what's it like working with other famous Australians like Saxton Hale, Ben "Yahtzee" Crossaw, and The Zombie of The Crocodile hunter?
[1:11:45 AM] AGWizard: back to real questions
[1:12:44 AM | Edited 1:12:48 AM] AGWizard: How do you feel about the new character development between Xander and The Arc Vales of the Past?
[1:13:02 AM] Tomas Sexington: I'm pretty happy about it, to be honest
[1:13:17 AM] Tomas Sexington: I'm looking forward to both our characters developing through the interactions
[1:13:52 AM | Edited 1:14:16 AM] AGWizard: if our characters return to their own times how do you think that will effect the timeline(s)?
[1:14:25 AM] Tomas Sexington: It won't effect Xander's timeline or the Artelian Empire
[1:14:40 AM] Tomas Sexington: But I imagine Arc's timeline will change quite a lot
[1:15:04 AM] Tomas Sexington: Which will inadvertently change the timeline of the Heroes of Vendigroth
[1:15:17 AM | Edited 1:15:31 AM] Tomas Sexington: Unless Eli does indeed have a plan to rectify that
[1:15:54 AM] AGWizard: do you think that could lead to an AU RP plot where sight is dealt with sooner before the gods are murdered?
[1:16:12 AM] Tomas Sexington: Possibly
[1:17:50 AM] AGWizard: what about Jett, can you tell us how he is doing?
[1:18:01 AM] Tomas Sexington: He's currently inside Gnosorun
[1:18:04 AM] Tomas Sexington: That's all I can say for now
[1:18:40 AM] AGWizard: Here's something
[1:18:58 AM] AGWizard: what is Xander's race? is he Pure Artellian?
[1:19:06 AM] Tomas Sexington: He is indeed pure Artelian
[1:19:09 AM] Tomas Sexington: It's one L
[1:19:38 AM] AGWizard: one L?
[1:19:44 AM] AGWizard: oh for the spelling
[1:19:48 AM] Tomas Sexington: ArteLian
[1:20:35 AM] AGWizard: i noticed you mentioned Xander is only 6'ish
[1:20:48 AM] Tomas Sexington: 6"6
[1:20:54 AM] AGWizard: does this mean Ridgire is just freakishly tall?
[1:20:59 AM] Tomas Sexington: Nope
[1:21:16 AM] Tomas Sexington: Xander is from a point in time where the height genes weren't as prominent
[1:21:48 AM] AGWizard: how many years seperate ridgire's birth from the end of the empire?
[1:22:03 AM] Tomas Sexington: Thousands
[1:22:09 AM] AGWizard: after?
[1:22:34 AM] Tomas Sexington: Oh, wait
[1:22:58 AM] Tomas Sexington: Ridgire was born roughly 10 years before the Empire got destroyed
[1:24:21 AM] AGWizard: where did Jett learn of the powers of the shadows?
[1:24:51 AM] Tomas Sexington: He had the natural talent for it
[1:25:09 AM] Tomas Sexington: The Gentlemen eventually took notice of his abilities and took him in
[1:25:18 AM] Tomas Sexington: And they taught him how to master the shadows
[1:25:38 AM] AGWizard: is shadow mastery passed down?
[1:25:50 AM] AGWizard: how long has these arts been around?
[1:26:09 AM] Tomas Sexington: The Gentlemen have been masters of the shadows for thousands of years
[1:26:31 AM] Tomas Sexington: They've infiltrated thousands of cities on hundreds of worlds
[1:27:40 AM] AGWizard: back on the ship when i reintroduced Hassan after Giru (the Dinosaur) was removed i hinted at him encountering this type of art back when he was alive and commending Jett on how far it's come, could this be possible?
[1:28:06 AM] Tomas Sexington: Could what be possible, exactly?
[1:28:48 AM] AGWizard: Hassan Encountering someone who uses the shadow arts in the past
[1:29:03 AM] Tomas Sexington: Probably
[1:29:07 AM] Tomas Sexington: I have to run now
[1:29:12 AM] Tomas Sexington: We can continue this another time
[1:29:16 AM] AGWizard: thanks for talking with me
[1:29:24 AM] Tomas Sexington: Happy to oblige
[1:29:30 AM] AGWizard: loved having you on the show
[1:29:36 AM] Tomas Sexington: Catch you later, budski
