But when I see that 90% of people I meet don't have the slightest idea how to pronounce my last name, although it's a three syllable combination of a common English adjective where only the vowel is shifted and the pretty similar equivalent of a common English first name ("Eh... do you mind if I call you Sam?").Even if I don't understand it, it seems to be a real problem. There's probably not much that can be done about it.As far as Kalamar goes, I like it for inspiration. I don't have anything but the setting book and one of the adventures (which is a really good example of how to make useful handouts), but the setting book alone is good for plundering. I don't use the setting, because there is only so many settings you can use (if everything goes right, it's one and the same setting for years <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />), but it definitely left its marks on my homebrew.</blockquote>
