Hi all! 

Super glad you're as excited about this as we are. It's been a long time in the works and it'll be great finally getting it into people's hands.

We've been hard at work polishing up the final text and thought it'd be nice to share some more of it. Below is the entry for Alcalde Station Juniper and one of the NPCs present, Chief Alcalde Boris. Every building in the borough is going to be fleshed out along these lines, along with each of the NPCs present. Seeds and information about the people and the places of the city are packed tight as they can be in every nook and cranny of the text, but they're tied together in such a way that it won't fall apart if you ignore something. With any luck it will make a rich, textured place to play in that rewards crazy-wall theorists and casual grazers alike.

Ripple Road #1
People present:

You could hardly tell this old gin-house was now the offices of the boroughs chief alcalde unless you arrived early enough in the day to catch a junior officer with a bucket of fresh yellow paint covering up last nights graffiti. The inside is a warren of piled files and loose documents, organically dividing the space into discrete cubicles where officers can fill out whatever paperwork is in reach, interview citizens, socialise with fellow officers, or sleep. The chief alcalde, Boris Saypurple, and two dozen cats permanently occupy a series of rooms in the attic from which they rarely emerge. Anyone taking a meeting or a meal to the chief will conduct it through an iron letterbox who's brutally strong spring ensures visitors get to the point and leave him to his investigations. His latest is into the fact that he has no idea who pays the station's wages or issues his orders, and his increasing obsession with this question is leading him to ever more reckless uses of the stations resources in trying to answer it.

One of the separate NPC entries. All names mentioned are people that live or work in the area and can be found elsewhere in the book doing their own thing:

Anyway, that's enough for now. 

As ever, if you're feeling it, share the project around, tell your friends, tell your influencers, every eyeball helps hit that secret stretch goal of "hire more people, do more faster"! And Colombo IP, obvs.
