05-30-06, 01:54 PM What mechanism do we have for changing a PC's name? Would it be as simple as making a notation in the 'Notes' section of the AR and having our next DM sign off on it?

I ask because the Bright Sands series of mods has, in effect, revealed a language convention for Flan that I was unaware existed when my PC for the series was created, namely that Flan == Gaelic (for the most part). My Asherati PC currently has a name with Arabic flavor, and I'd like to change it to something more in line with the campaign...

05-30-06, 06:15 PM I too am curious about this, since my character is "Wanted" and it says in the regional book that it takes 4 AR's to establish a new identity.

05-30-06, 11:21 PM Your character can always take up a new name in-game without changing what you write on your ARs. I have a character who died and came back as an elf and has been introducing herself as "Kirsten the Red" ever since. Only giving her old name to her previous companions.
