if you're including Dark Tower stuff you've got to include Blaine the
Monorail - too cool to waste. inside the tower - how about relics from
the first true gunslinger, either pick someone out of weird west history
or pick one of the characters ancestors. even better - both, the
character is a descendant of Doc Holliday or some such. hmmm - might use
that myself some day :)

hmmm...... lovely plot setup but i can't see how the girl would survive
being dragged through the storm - (hehe back to the Kid archetype & its
wind hehe). maybe include that ComSat saw her being dragged into a lead
box - easier to track that way. okay, as for the storm.... maybe it
covers an underground entrance. hey - maybe ComSats got it all wrong and
the girl is actually being saved - a bunch of survivors have started a
subterranean civilisation and are saving the girl. this could give the
characters a good hidey hole (presuming they don't go in guns blazing).
hope that helps
