An example would be referring to Smed with his full name "John Smedly CEO of SOE" rather than just smed, smedly, or the smedster.

- This is something I kind of messed with, but if people don't like it, I'll go with something slightly more informal.

Admittedly... That's just how I write. I have a couple people working with me now, who are going to try and reign that in in the future.

This was an attempt at matching the font from IG... doesn't translate as well to print. This will be changed next week

Good point, will look into it.

- Also, the PDF doesn't copy/paste very easy!

Thank you very much for the feedback. I appreciate people critiquing what I have done, because frankly it's the only way the AI will improve.
