it's not essential for MY storyline
besides, I ONLY use Stone as a terrorizing machine
killing the PCs is something that he tries to do at a
certain point in their careers

p.s.- there's been talk about past-Stone and
future-Stone, I always disliked that time travel
business and I've never been particularly fond of the
Wasted West, so I don't use it
the future is unwritten in my campaign
