Your score for Battlestar Galactica blew my mind the first time I saw the series, and I have yet to find a score from another series that I like better than yours.

Since the main characters all have their own tracks and tunes, how did you create them? Was it based on their characters and their actions, and did you use any inspiration from the actors behind them? Are there any cool stories that you've got about the BSG score?

Hello Ragnar, first of all I'd like to really thank you for The Longest Journey and Dreamfall. The first time I played TLJ was the year it was released in Swedish, I was 8 years old and played it with my father. Ever since, it has been a big part of my upbringing and life, and I have never found another story that I've been caring about as much or as fully. When it comes to the ability of telling stories, I've never looked up to another person as I am looking up to you.

Here's a question, now that I'm in a position to ask one - How has the story affected you these many years since you started writing it? Has it always been with you, presenting itself in different circumstances? I know that I have carried it with me for more than half my life, and I'm certain it has been one of the most positive and distinctive factors that have made me who I am today. How do you think of it, from the perspective of having created the story and the worlds?

I am so happy Dreamfall Chapters finally is something concrete, and not just an abstract hope the future will bring, and I wish you and your team all the best in the making of the game.

Hi Katee! Very happy to see you here, Starbuck matter a lot to me on a personal level as a person who redefines a character who earlier was constricted to a gender role and what was expected of it while your portrayal of it helps redefine not only the character but the expectation of gender roles at large. I don't think this could have been presented in as positive a light if it wasn't for the sublime writing of BSG and your sublime acting in it, and I'm grateful for the chance to thank you for this.

As for the question - did you ever expect your character to be a cylon? Did you know from the start that it wouldn't be or how did you feel about it when the final five where revealed? Would you have wanted to be among them?
