Right...I'm sorta running low on laptop batteries atm so I'll just make this quick and easy....
"So, Ogres, dwarves, red-eyed lycanthrope, fog, magic-stuff, etc., wererats... Well, there seem to be a few peculiar groups who seem to be simply beyond mortal comprehension and resistance. Like, if Gielinor had no magic at all, everyone'd be toast (sort of)."

Well....that's pretty much the point of including them in this. It's one thing to have an End of Days scenario where the only people fighting against it are just a bunch of regular guys in armor. But it takes on a whole new level of "we're done for" when even the most powerful creatures in the world are making plans to fight against the inevitable
Concerning character names: I'm starting to think it's just a personal issue at this point. Because a few hours back I was reading another story and had trouble keeping who's who straight too, and the cast was limited to about 5 characters in the spotlight, if that
But I do recognize some of the more...errr..."exotic" names are harder to keep track of thanks to being different and thrown in with a bigger cast all around. That's something I plan on ironing out over the coming chapters once things start hitting the fan.
Concerning the fan service/action comment: I realize the action-oriented scenes could be improved on. A lot (at least as far as making the "descriptions" exciting goes). Let's just say that English isn't my first language and leave it at that since I'm still learning new stuff about it everyday...
