I'm also not crazy about running another character, but perfectly happy to have new players join our rapidly diminishing ranks.

I've never had much success running more than one PC. By all means, recruit!

Thanks! I'm really looking forward to it.
So, I have to ask: has anyone made the obligatory Gentle Giant reference yet?
Gentle Giant, "The Advent of Panurge" (Live BBC 1974)
The song proper starts about 2 minutes into the video, and you should stick around for at least a couple of minutes after that.

Whoa, good find! I completely failed my Progressive Rock check on this one.
Also:
Pantagruel's Nativity
I'm going to have to worm the lyrics of these songs into something or other.

I love GG. Quirky as all get out, and a real hidden gem from the era. Ironically, it was through them that I discovered Rabelais!

Wikipedia: "Gentle Giant's music was considered complex even by progressive rock standards..."
That's saying something.

As he does so, his lips pucker out rather comically into the exaggerated shape of a tooting horn.
A word that has fallen out of the English language:
Mimp (v.) to purse one's lips and speak with affectation.

@Pulp,
Would Camelote, seeing Flintlock suddenly flip around and change direction to look at the ground, be able to follow his brother's lead?
We kind of established in our creation pm's that he is very influenced by Flintlock. So if Camelote saw him look at the ground I have this inkling feeling that he would be like hey brother what's more important down there than this beautiful ceiling? Then rearrange his face to be looking at the floor which could potentially break the effect.
I wanted to run that by you first though because I wasn't sure how much control I have over Camelote currently.
If that is reasonable then he would probably try to snatch Ram on the way down. Let me know and I'll make the appropriate rolls.

Seeing what happened to Flint, I don't know if any of the others would be too happy about a 7' giant lead man with explosive gas falling on top of them!

I'm afraid Camelote isn't in control of his faculties, right now. He sees nothing but the heaven that awaits.
How's that for some ace GM'ing? One round in and I take your player agency away.

It certainly takes the stresses of making a wrong choice out of playing!
