[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2070564, member: 29014"] The totally unofficial rules-guys' compilation of NPCs (with modified names, ? means that we don't know that part of the name). Names for Pillar members SEEM TO adhere to the following rules: Influential aristocrats have a first and last name and then a Dal-PillarName, except half-orc throne aspirants, who have a first name a compound of their parents' last names separated by a dash, a Dal-FatherPillarName and a Ty-MotherPillarName. Other house members (so half-elves of House Kiron or peasants who join House Malarn) have just the first name and the Pillar name, whereas normal peasants have a first and last name (so new Malarn members are exhorted to doff thy name, which is no part of thee, and in exchange become Malarn). Masks only have a single name, and non-Eyrians can do what they want. So here is the dictionary of NPCs (note I made some of this up, like the dating system, and probably got some wrong, it is apocrypha and can be changed by a real post). References to low-mid-high level allow you to define what those terms mean in your campaign (at least for now unless we actually stat these guys). Oh, and I defaulted to aristocrat for a lot of these rulers, but some of them are probably something more interesting: Aekalda: Male Gnome Escapee, ? class/level, lived in ancient times (Circa 50 BE), an escapee of the elves' experiments, the energy pouring through his veins created a spell that brought the humans and orcs together to liberate the gnomes from elven sovereignty Aelyna: Female Elf Princess, low-level aristocrat, lived in ancient times (Circa 1500 BE [Before Eyros]), loved by Taogrim and slain by Urtha. Aeryl dal-Kiron: Male Half-Elf Scion of House Kiron, low-level social-oriented Rogue, currently engaged in a plot against Alyria, Lae'Thyr of King Laryst of Nistadeen Agathon of the Crimson Robe (Agathon ?-? Dal-(Vajar or Zhal, probably Vajar) Ty-?: Male Half-Orc, mid-to-high-level Fighter/Aristocrat, lived Circa 2650 EY [Eyrian Year] (his ascension becomes 1 PA [Pax Agatha]), brokered the Pax Agatha, the peace that ended the War of the Crumbled Pillar Alivia: Female Elf Mask of the Primal Oath, high-level wizard, born in BE, she is still youthful and childish, loyal to the crown, and a friend of Belira Alkshaln: Male Dwarf Legendary Psion of the Five Heroes, high-to-epic-level Psion, Alkshaln had access to a set of seven powerful crystals (one of each colour of the rainbow) that amplified his abilities, and he was a reliable ally and true friend to the other heroes, except perhaps the mysteruous Valjin. Alkshaln is one of the Five Heroes who defeated Taufenacht circa 4000 BE. Alsixnivis: Male Great Wyrm White Dragon Ascendant, guardian of the Twelve, he pretends to be the dwarf sage Orgar. He is the voice of Taufenacht and the Twelve throughout the northlands. Alyria: Female Elf Lae'Thyr of King Laryst of Nistadeen, low-level aristocrat, she will soon be transformed into a bestial Falgyr by Aeryl's cursed amulet. Arat'ut al'Katib: Male Efreeti Prince, Arat'ur is magically bound under Mt. Xark, and he seems to be a power source for the Crucible. [/QUOTE]
