I am honestly so touched by that:_ Especially since it's my first AAR published. Thanks a ton to everyone whose been so kind and supportive in the writing so far, and here's too much more content in futureThis has been stalled for a while, hasn't it?
Time to rectify that. I nominate @LPDK 356 for the characters in his AAR, Song of the Karlings: Karloman's Legacy. Specifically for Karloman himself.
I've checked the dates and this nomination just sneaks into the limit, which is a relief as it means it can be handed out while the work is still "fresh".
I nominate @DensleyBlair for the tragic and hyperbolic figure of Jean-Maxence-François-Chrétien, the Vicomte De La Roche Saint-Michel. His previous oriental dispatches covering his travels in Greece have been exhausting and entertaining, but the tragic and lamentable tale of Antonia stands apart. There is more than a hint of the Byron to the Vicomte's language and style and he shares the overblown philhellenism and a tragic and mysterious past, but there is none of the moody brooding or pretentious to heroism.
Certainly one of the best bits of character work I have read recently here or anywhere else, I thoroughly recommend it.

Ahem, plug the project by name...
Otherwise I quite agree, of course.
Congrats @DensleyBlair!

We're not even out of 1821 and the Ottomans are about to collapse.
There is definitely an opening for an actually pro-Ottoman Newspaper should anyone reading want to join the project. /hint, hint/@El Pip might consider a rethink and now revrand the project as the international press destroying all the great powers one by one with their 'helpful suggestions'.
Congratulations! That really was quite the read.
