And here I thought it would be called "Jurassic-7" for marketing purposes.

On the other hand, I see quite a few of those on Julian's sheet!

The boys are very different characters... One's from the system and the hood and one's from the burbs with a nuclear family...

It really relates to the context in which I created Julian. It was just after Peter spent some time back on his home world, and how excited and happy he was to return home. I ended up thinking, "well, what would a character who would have an opposite reaction look like?" Took that idea and Julian emerged from there, perhaps the one character in lost in dreams who would wake up in front of his own house to sheer terror.

Peter is awarded 5 points for escaping the dinosaur pen, rescuing the girl, and providing hard evidence of serious misdeeds! (I really need a name for the company cooking up the dinosaurs). He's still got more dangling threads here than some of the other places, but we'll let the gears of law and criminal conspiracy chug along for a bit.



Lets see, what world to put him on now...

I'm considering a point in Computer Operation and Research... But I did want to save for stats as Peter is coming up on 15! He's going to be a late bloomer if I don't focus there soon. I'll let you know.
