[QUOTE="Jolmo, post: 2475937, member: 14908"] And with James, the game is full. passengerpigeon, your defense doesn't sum up correctly. Everything else submitted so far seems fine. Here are some more setting notes for the languages in the book, they should be read together with the text there: Abyssal and Infernal: Used mostly in summoning spells, otherwise as rare as the Ancient Speech. Ancient Speech: The language of the Masters, too complex for lesser beings to speak, some sages still learn to read it enough to decipher some of the knowledge that survived the Masters fall. First Speech: Language of the First. Common: Used by most [i]civiliced[/i] people. Death Speech: May or may not exist. Draconic: No dragons are known to exist. Ferrish: One of many barbaric languages, but the most widely spread. Kolorean: The empire was located in what today is the Ghostlands. Sea Speech: The Mariners have only arrived twice to the largest town on the western coast, Vaan, to trade goods and tales of foreign lands. New languages: Serahn: Spoken by the nomads of the desert. Gray Speech: The simple language of the Gray. Various minor languages are spoken only in a very limited area, usually they are similar enough to each other or a larger language that speakers of different languages will understand each other without too much trouble. I'll also let you save a language for some quick learning later on if you can't find enough that fit. Yeah, do it like that, and the smaller the place you pick, the lower the DCs will be. As with all Knowledge fields you can get another at full ranks for just one more skill point of course. Please do. [/QUOTE]
