Hi there, everybody! I'm Cory Herndon, AKA "StoryCory" (PHX use only), AKA Hellizard, and I'm the writer for Dauntless.
I've been working in games of one kind or another for more than two decades, from a stint as an editor/designer for Wizards of the Coast and then on to Microsoft, ArenaNet, Carbine Studios, and now Phoenix Labs. I also wrote the original Ravnica trilogy, was almost knocked over by Bill Gates' butt this one time (it was an accident), and for 9 months played a singing Captain Picard in a Star Trek musical parody (and I have the photos to prove it).
I am here to answer any questions you have about Dauntless lore. Please write your questions in reply to this thread -- I will be answering them starting tomorrow morning, September 6, @ 10:30AM PT.
Thanks, friends. Looking forward to hearing from you!
