Originally my plan was to keep the story of The New Era going forever. Sort of similar to the model of the comic books, a new plotline is introduced before the old one finishes, and the story keeps on going indefinately.
Then, I got the idea for a climatic ending. An invasion of the city and a big final battle in which half of my characters would meet their untimely demise. Who would die and who would live? I spent a lot of time in study halls pondering this question.
To keep myself occupied in study hall, I sketched out the final fates of all the characters. This was only planning though. Some of these I stuck to, some I ended up changing. For a quick reference as to what ended up actually happening, check out the list of "Characters I've Killed."
Final Fates--Very subjective to change
