If you are unsure about anything, all you need to do is ask the BoD. We try to help and we don't mind being prodded if we seem to be taking too long.
Heyoka- the Owner and resident mythological creature. Heyoka spends his days cleverly disguised as a colorful stuffed toy, until someone needs a good thundering.
Jim - The Token Testosterone BoD - Also a member of the ever-growing UK contingent. Jim was recruited as part of the second wave of Dark Fort-focused BoD. He was bright, he was helpful, and he never saw it coming.
Alysa - The Timing It BoD - Obsessed with dates, schedules, and plans, Alysa is all about organizing the timing of things. She's also apprenticed to the Small Fuzzy, learning all of Laura's evil ways, so watch out. Generally much less scary after her espresso fix of the day.
Emma - The Brand New Baby BoD - The ranks of the UKers keeps growing and one day they'll take over completely. Emma might be our newest BoD, but she's on loan from Triad where she's no stranger to admin work.
Mya - I'll Help Out! BoD - She kept volunteering to help do Egg descriptions and Dragons for the Arolos Hatchings. Well, it was only a matter of time before we pounced her. Bwahaha!
Laura the Small Fuzzy - Laura is probably the reason you are at Arolos or DF. Her devotion to Marketing will surely have her earning millions some day either that or she will have pressed the Big Red Button that breaks the world. We're not actually sure which is the most dangerous thing, but we all know to keep Dr. Pepper away from her if we value our sanity. Holder of the Arolos Soul Bottle (for which Vicky Apologises)
Vicky - the HalfDead One - So called because she and her characters spend so much time halfdead from trying to solve everyone else's problems! Also referred to as The Vicky which means that everyone asks her questions and expects her to know the answers immediately. Mediator, Arbitrator and dispenser of meaningless soothing phrases. Weirder than Laura.
Shirl The WiggleTickleGlomperHugger:- So called for her tendency to wiggle, tickle, glomp and hug when excited...or...happy...or...asleep even. Practically all the time in fact. Wearer of the Evil Plotter Hat (Trained at length by The Vicky) Responds well to gifts of chocolate.
Kat The Cranky Webbie - It's true, cross her at your peril. Write a webpage in Word and prepare yourself for a long and painful death. Has the amazing ability to bring most conversations down into the gutter in ways most mere mortals would not consider.
Mandy the Creator of the Whizzy Thing BoD. - She knows the ways of PHP and SQL and we have exploited her mercilessly. What can I say? She stood still too long and Laura caught up with her, and now she is reduced to a life of labour in the service of the BoD (she keeps volunteering! ARGH!)
Laurie and Ari - Currently on long term LOA from admin work while they wait for Real Life to release them from its clutches.
