07/28/08 EDIT: Minor tweaks, elements of Caves of K'maht worked in.
08/29/08 EDIT: Elements from "Trouble at the Gates" and "The Ruined Sea" worked in.
11/14/08 EDIT: Added Clank, Barrier Twig, Mudtown, and the unnamed Hartland Stone.

If my campaign does push through, I have a bunch of names of NPC's already, mainly the heads (and founders) of the five families of New X.

08/29/08 EDIT: Elements from "Trouble at the Gates" and "The Ruined Sea" worked in.

@BJ: What was the name of the Baalim leader in Caves of K'maht? I'm looking for it, but my search-fu is weak tonight. He needs to be posted up here.

Nes'vath. Came to me while I was farting one night. Laughing

Here you mentioned the following:

Sivar
Ascent
Aysa

Mother Night sounds a lot like Pale Night. I think we can afford to port that one over.

Also,

Divine Obituary

Salvage what can be salvaged. Throw Vrahn away, I don't want to see his ugly mummified face anymore.

I move that the Fagnefus family get special mention, if only due to sheer number of characters (i.e. whenever someone wants to create a character with an "X-Fag" nickname, they make him/her a Fagnefus.

Then again, I'm partial to me own brainchild, so y'know Laughing

Special mention doesn't exactly constitute fame; I'm content with "creator inside joke" status Razz

11/14/08 EDIT: Added Clank, Barrier Twig, Mudtown, and the unnamed Hartland Stone.

Haven't yet run a log of the current list of Fagnus characters. Can someone do a census of them?

Uberto Fagnefus (Uber-Fagnus)
-Considered to be the patriarch of the Barrier Twig Fagnefus wizards.

Hypperita Fagnefus (Hyper-Fagnus)
-Apprentice to Uber-Fagnus
-The illegitimate love-child of Uberto Fagnefus and his third cousin's stepsister

Ultimorcium Fagnefus (Ultra-Fagnus)
-Apprentice to Uberto Fagnefus first, and then to Hypperita Fagnefus
-Not a Fagnefus by blood; he was given the name by Uberto Fagnefus, however, and is officially a member of the Fagnefus clan.

------------------------
The Fagnefus family has grown rather large, actually; let's just say Sir Uberto was a rather promiscuous old man. There are also a lot of pretenders who use the Fagnefus name, but those are found out quite quickly; they simply don't have that Fagnus flair, as it's called.
