Change Of Plans / Updates

Okay, you know how I said, a few entries ago, that my future, yet-to-be-written epic Dimension Hoppers was only going to have one main character?
Well, I've decided Isarot, the protagonist of DiH, is not going to be the only main character. Instead, he shall be accompanied by Toa Kiriah, a Toa of Psionics and a good friend of his. Both of them will be working together to retrieve what has been stolen from their peoples and the story shall take place from both of their POVs.
The part about showing the story from both POVs will be the most tricky part in writing DiH, I think, since I plan to write the epic in first person. This means I will have to work to make sure that Isarot and Kiriah are different enough so that you can tell them apart when I switch POVs. Right now I think they are different enough characters, but when I get around to actually writing it, I'll have to be critical about such things as personal biases, thoughts, opinions, word choice, etc, etc. I think it'll be fun, but probably very difficult and I may need to get a beta reader to help during the editing process.
In case I forgot to mention this earlier, Isarot's not going to be a Toa, but a Tagiki, which is a species I made up for my fanfics, so I'll be able to contrast or compare the differences and similiarities between the two if I want. I doubt there will be romance, but since I don't plan this sort of thing beforehand, it may happen (or it may not XD).
Personally I'm excited for DiH now, since when I wrote the first draft a while ago (like, back in late 2008) Isarot had been a pretty boring character by himself. Hoping Kiriah will spice things up a bit and make it funner to write.
As for An Unlikely Alliance, I'm nearing the end. Right now it is in the final stage of editing, which is close to completion. Once I finish it, I'll probably post a preview here in my blog one week before the posting of the first chapter (once I find a non-spoilleriffic part to preview, that is 
).
