Re: "Why everyone assumes I'm an incompetent, and why Mr. Allen's assertions are more canonical than my own I'll never know. -gm "

The lizardfolk language entry was already on this sheet--I just changed it to the newly determined name for their language. Also, related, on the Lizard Men page, should "Al can speak their language, but no one else in the party can," be changed into something else that more closely represents reality, or should the page be taken as a "Germain's crazy perception" POV? It would be strange, given the general neutrality of this wiki, but stranger things have happened. -Slitherrr

Weird! Hmm..
Ahh! FWIW, I believe that it originally did not have "Sidhe" written at all, but instead had "Lizard Man^" since it was clear that Al could speak with the lizard men, but the party (meta- and in-game) were laboring under the assumption Al was a human. Once most of the party (in) and all of the party (meta) is aware of the score, Sidhe got added in but the carroted "Lizard Man" got taken off. Does that make sense? I certainly hope not. ;) In short, yeah, some of "Germain's crazy incomplete perception" got mixed up with canon. (After all, when it comes to people mixing up their roles between Player and Game Master, it's almost always Mr. Dr. Allen - it's a sort of ambiguity we've shared in our mutual games going back to high school LARP.) -gm
Not sure how the "Lizard Man^" entry got added back, then. In other news, A)what does the caret mean, and B) do some Lizardfolk speak Sidhe? Is that a Druid thing? -Slitherrr
I have no idea how I factor into this discussion, but I am glad you all are talking about me. I <3 attention! --Msallen
Well, he or I almost certainly added it, though I'm sure the caret was me, probably because Al was not yet known by anyone to be an elf, in or out of game, and he'd exhibited the ability to chatty-chat the lizard folk. When he was then revealed, metagame, to be Sidhe and the Sidhe languages added... things got strange. But, it's all fixed now! For the next stop on our tour. . . -gm
