[QUOTE="Kelleris, post: 1796637, member: 19130"] I'll proof everyone's character sheets and post again later today. @ rangerjohn - Hmm... I haven't really thought about Tangler naming conventions. Probably anything that sounds like something a tribal elf would use would be just fine. I can dig up some sample names if you'd like some help. @ Isida Kep'Tukari - :confused: No haggling? Nothing?! Geez, my current players must really have me trained. :eek: EDIT: Also, do you think +2 or +4 power points would be best for the Chain Power feat? Offhand, I'd say +4, but since it interferes with your damae scaling and then halves [I]that[/I], this is case where psionic characters really lose out compared to arcane casters. As far as names go, you can use anything as a Kellunan. However, most Kellunans have a title of some sort. Given the power of the rulers and the likely fanaticism of the followers, it's imperative that everyone knows who they can offend and who they have to be deferential to. Lawful Proxies usually have a strict hierarchy, of course, generally with some variation on "Templar" - "Junior Templar," "Templar-Chancellor," and so forth. The Templar part is usually dropped within the faith, so it would be "Junior" or "Chancellor" in the above examples. Neutral Proxies typically allow their followers to select a title based on some achievement they are known for, although many also use a loose hierarchy pretty freely. Chaotic Proxies don't assign titles, of course, so their followers just make something up. The more impressive it sounds, the more influential and/or powerful they are likely to be. It's a self-correcting system since the higher-ranked Templars usually look unkindly on peons with snazzier titles than them; people have a tendency to show far more courtesy to their subordinates than they ought. @ Zerth - Ergh. Jovars. I dislike them on the grounds that they only exist because there was an unfilled slot for a weapon with a better threat range and greatsword damage. Still, I allowed Mad Hatter to use one, so I'll let you use it too. [/QUOTE]
