I bet that Dawnstar is a specialist in Bird's Opening (1. f4) and the various Indian defenses. Jeckie probably prefers the Queen's Gambit. Dragonmage, of course, favors the Dragon variation of the Sicilian. Quislet doesn't play chess because the pieces have an annoying tendency to explode after he moves them. What are the other Legionnaires's chess-playing styles? Aaron Kashtan/Sir Tim Drake
