Once again we are dipping our toes into the Dresdenverse and continuing the Las Vegas game. It feels good to get back to the characters, city, and storyline we love. We will only be playing once a month, which will allow for lots of downtime and much less stress for everyone involved.
To get back into Vegas mode, I have put together a list of characters and places as sort of a refresher. The list is separated into sections to make it easier. Because of that, some characters are on more then one list. For characters not listed under a specific family or organization, I will include a brief description. I really hope this ends up being a little bit helpful.

I know that there are probably a few people and places I have missed but the list should be mostly complete.
I am very excited to be continuing this game. Doing this post gave me the opportunity to go back over the previous entries and see that I never really got a handle on playing this character as well as I should have. There was quite a bit of "Damn, Shade would have done THIS instead of THAT!" The game will be starting a year after where it left off and Lana is giving us the chance to tweak our characters to match how they would have changed and grown. I plan on doing just that and being a better player.
