    [​IMG] This is on very short notice, but I've been given the option of doing a short Q&A with Salvatore on Demon Stone, so I'm posting this as an open call for question suggestions. 10 questions will be asked (some of mine probably included), but I'll also try to pick the best ones posted here. I have to deliver the questions by this Friday, so hurry up and post!

    (And please, check our news archives for what sort of questions have already been asked in the previous Salvatore Demon Stone interviews - I don't intend on repeating anything if at all possible.)

    What about the DS project attracted your attention and made you want to be involved?

    How does the DS storyline incorporate and enrich the existing mythos, character-set, and overall persona of the FR world?

    In a game, battle scenes are performed by the player instead of being described by the author. Did you miss writing the big action sequences, or did this help you focus on adding detail to the overall plotline?

    How much of an influence will your previous FG books have on the game and how much on an influence will the game have on your upcoming books?

    Rumors suggest characters such as Drizzt will feature in this game. Do you worry about storyline clashes?

    - Edit these as you would to find the same answers.

    And a private one from me that I'll be happy if you can pass along: Can I have your babies? :p

    How difficult is it to stay in character when preparing responses for dialog with the player character? How do you keep the personality of the scripted NPCs consistent when you don't know what direction the PC will take?

    Sorry people... I didn't think we'd be able to get the boards back online on time, so I prepared the questions myself already. Some of Rallymama's are in though, and I have similar questions for most others posted here.
