I don't know, I've definitely seen worse, and the names thing is a bit of a tough call with how many characters we have on-screen, when the default is to, for instance, call Dante "the blind man", that really shouldn't happen more than once a post.
I didn't notice all that many adjectives in his last post, or at least where there were they were conveying relevant or semi-relevant information for the most part. I mean, there are probably places where the rhythm of a sentence would be helped by excising them, but again, I'm a lot more lenient on RP posts than I am on formal writing.
If I had to call out one thing, it'd be the instance where Rurik is "rapidly clawing", it's a good example of when not to use an ad-verb, since it doesn't really tell us anything essential about the action or why he's performing it. Lawtan, you seem to be pretty good with ad-verbs in general, though, since I haven't noticed many like that so far, which is good. (I tend to notice :P)
Anyway, you *can* have Kadia do something too, if you want, Law, either in this post or just make a separate one. When we talk about keeping your posts reined-in, we mean the actual content of what happens, you can make them 7 or 8 paragraphs or more if you want to really get into the psychoses of what your characters are going through (see Salone's posts :D), but it's hardly necessary, either.
Just need to find your balance. :)
Anyway, I'll probably make a post tonight with Thomas (don't have much for Diogenes to do, but we'll see.), so if anyone wants to squeeze anything else in before then, now's your chance.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
