Ooh, you're pretty close to a book 3 talent!

Spelling errors happen on early mockups. It will get fixed soon enough.

People should know: Alcatraz's jacket actually looks like this:

(except not worn by a woman).

I feel a sentimental attachment to that jacket.   ;D

I wonder wich one... Procrastination? Giving annoying comments?
I'm betting it is Forgetting. It just seems to fit.

Yeah... I need a new one. Mine is a bit ratty and stained.

I used to have one like that, but it was blue.

I wonder what a Christillyn jacket looks like? Leather perhaps?

-Edit- I didn't want to double post, but I thought of a few more.
Having really bad aim!
Bad eyesight
Sleeping in (also goes under late I suppose....)

I'm sure I'll think of more...

Passing gas at inopportune moments.
I must not fear;
Fear is the mind killer;
I will face my fear;
I will let it pass through me;
When the fear is gone, there will be nothing;
Only I will remain.

I always thought the Crystallian jackets were kinda like that but a little tighter and not have that weird fringe on the sleave.
What I like about the cover of the 3rd is that it shows that Bastille DOES get her knight back. What's with the lizard in the corner?
I think the Talent in the 3rd is forgetting things. It just seems to work. It would be close to Attica's I suppose though. I like the cover though. It's the best one so far.
Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Great cover...EXCEPT! The green scaly head (is that a Gak?) is out of place and distracting.

Also, I don't see any reason why breaking couldn't be used for fixing, given enough control. If you have something in two pieces, joining them into one "breaks" each of them.

However, if the breaking talent is tied to entropy, that would limit its creative power. Needing to go from more ordered to less means you can't really fix anything by breaking the pieces.

I thought it was a Gak too!  :D I agree it is kinda out of place. It's like ohh knights fight,......LIZARD!? I think we'll just have to wait and see what happends with the Talents. BUT I think I agree with Zas678 about how all Talents seem negitive at first. With that point made I don't think fixxing could be an option.  ???
