[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 9565518, member: 63"] The Ob is pretty compartmentalized, and most of its members are canny enough to maintain operational security, so if he'd worked with, say, Caius Bergeron before (maybe been the one to recruit [I]him[/I]), when suddenly this deva shows up, Caius would have a moment of recognition, and he might probe him with the Ob line, "What if you woke up one day, and everyone agreed with you," just to get a sense of whether he might be able to recruit the new incarnation. And then when Xambria is able to talk to the party lucidly later, right before Sijhen does his ritual against the RHC, she could say that she remembers the [I]thing[/I] in her ate a memory in Caius's head about the PC, but decades ago. Heck, maybe Lya Jierre thinks she recognizes him from when she was much younger, because not [I]many[/I] devas come to Danor. She could consider him when they first meet and ask if he's ever been to Danor, then wave it off and get to business. Then at the end of the first adventure when she shows up again, she could ask whether it's rude to talk to a deva about past lives he might not remember, because she thinks she recalls the PC meeting with her father a few times, but she doesn't remember about what. Then in adventure 4 if the party surveils the Ob meeting in Vendricce, if Nicodemus sees the PC, he calls out to him by name and gives him a respectful nod, saying they'll have to have a conversation another time. In adventure 5, Sovereign Han Jierre, if asked about this, of course claims that he has no affiliations with any secret societies or whatever; the PC's past incarnation was just part of an archaeological program that Han was interested in. He can have the conversation with Nic in adventure 7, and then in adventure 8 can encounter someone in a memory event outside Alais Primos (this is so far away it'd be hard to decide now who it is, maybe?). He could find out that he was studying the ruins of Methia, and maybe the past version of him was friends with a deva who was in the Alais Primos memory event, and who is still active in Methia. She came to the city as part of the 'maybe if we die here we die for good' cult. Not sure where that goes, but it's a lot of backstory hooks you could use. [/QUOTE]
