Mercenary is now 14,000+ words (from 8,000). This update features a fully fleshed out combat scenario in the "Royalty" background (as well as a minor combat scenario in "Previous Company" background). I've entirely dropped the character creation in favor of natural development. That is to say, you won't be picking if your character is literate or a great drinker at the start. You will create your character through organic story telling.
i.e if you are a royal, you'd obviously know how to read. This allows me to provide a better story.
