I would be hesitant to go "Mover and Shaker". I would be most happy with Established, although I could be persuaded towards Veteran.

Personally I don't think we should go beyond established. The characters need to have somewhere to advance...

I've got my character done for basic character creation. Waiting on the voting before I add xp for Established / Veteran status depending on how the voting goes.

Looks like its going to be Established, which means an additional 35 exp for character creation. Also a note about how the character is established within the world to reflect these extra experience. As a note, I like short to the point character histories. If your going over a page then you may need to cut back to the important parts you want me to remember.

So I don't know how specialized the rest of your characters went. I did Gnosis 2, and have Life 3 / Spirit 2 / Matter 2. Put a couple points into a Hallow, and bought a 3-point magic item (A cane that at a command word transforms into a sword. Will also double as my wand). All of my Rotes are Life rotes, mainly dealing with healing and armor.

I could have gotten Life 4, but if that really puts me ahead of the power curve from where you guys are spec-ing out your characters, I'm happy to stay with a balanced character to start with.

Cane approved, however its a 2 point Imbued Item unless it does something other than stabbing people with the sharp pointy end, or possibly even cutting with the sharp side.

Mr. Coal's main focus is "Fate". With a side of Forces and a smidgen of Time. However, I haven't added experience points as of yet. I already have a gnosis of 3 with starting character points. This is because of his strong use of improvised spell use. He never knows what he will need or when in, his line of work...

2 points, eh? Nice. I think I'd still like it to be a 3-point Item. Perhaps it simply has an equipment bonus to damage, or armor piercing. Like a combined imbued item (for the transformation), and enhanced item (for improved performance as a regular weapon). No point-and-click fireballs for me.

So after XP, how are the rest of your characters looking? Mainly wondering about Sphere levels.
