There's lots and lots of nobles out there... we should probably avoid the Filmore/Rhynn name, I think.

Then it would be Greyclaw. I was going under the assumption we were looking for a distant relative of a noble associated with the rebel cause.... which I thought currently only amounted to Jaine Rhynn, Alric Filmore, Duke Greyclaw, and L'Aurel Woodshadow...Queen_Dopplepopolis said:
L'Aurel's claim is only admitted/recongnized by the pheonix throne. So that's automatically out.
Why should we avoid Filmore or Rhynn?

The Filmore's have been stricken completely from the Noble's Council - they're titles stripped from them. The Rhynns are all under suspicion by association, and some of them *did* help free Jaine from her intended execution some time ago, if you recall. The Duke has few relatives, and he's DEFINITELY in trouble, what with marrying a rebel leader and all. L'Aurel's out because she essentially has no relatives, and is just as suspicion worthy as the rest of them.
Because they're dangerous. Like it or not, the very names are infamous, and are comparably risky. My advice? If you're going to pretend to be a noble, pick one that has *no* association with the Rebellion - you're just begging for suspicion, otherwise.

IIRC, There are 32 great houses in the kingdom, and probably around 200-250 ranking nobles in the known world.

There are also a large number of knights (although not in the horse and armor sense) around.
Honorifics, only.

So any random lesser noble's or distant relations of knights and noble's hanging out in our refugee group?
I know some of few thousand is out- black orcs, Ryoko's group, Jaine, the circle, and the Duke.
When last we noticed heard was there a family that was closest to the King, his most avid supporters?
Or are we just making up a name with some family link and such?

Well, Henry Hansberry - son of the apparently dead Duke Hansberry of Atur - was one of the weird assassins Tain sent after you the last time. But, since Tain sent him after you, he's probably well aware of the current state of that House.

hey guys,
i'm back finnally and able to contribute.
Everything is looking pretty good so far, i like the one noble with a couple servants idea, hell, it could be a pair of nobles that lost a son or daughter to the rebellion if we want to. Annd we could pull a "Luke-give-Jabba-his-droids" with one or two of the servants we bring. We present it as a gift and that gives us a couple angles to get info from him.
As of now i have a couple Character ideas. One is a James Bondy type (ex-talon, turned merchant prince, turned Shadow Stalker) who would make use of an awesome Prestige Class that's in the Sword & Sorcery book "Rangers and Rogues" which has a lot of cool stuff for any character we might make for this side game. Anyway, the class is called Vigil Stalker and it has special abilities like, "Blend In", "Read Faces", and "Perfect Disguise" to name a few and all of the prerequisites are Ranger/Rogue based.
Anyway, my two cents.
