I'll have a look through my DDI collection next and add anything new I find to this scroll.


They have been tentatively added until I get a reply from the PM you should be receiving shortly.

And I only just noticed, you already pre-formatted the list in the correct 'Glossary format'. Wow!

While I'm quoting Mr_Miscellany, this is actually an open question to any scribe with the FRCG.

  • On the subject of "plangents" and "Datharathi crystal" is there any mention of the word:

  • on page 118 where the rest of this is presumeably mentioned? As you can see, I have found "chaka" while cross-referencing "plangents" and "plangent/Datharathi crystal" in Darkvision, but don't know if it is better defined (or even mentioned) in the FRCG.

    AFAIR "chaka" was a word for house/ruler. Don't remember for sure, but it was certainly used in FRCS and Shining South (the AD&D one!). So it's not 4e Realmspeak, but older.

    SiNafay Vrinn, the daughter of Lloth, from Ched Nasad!

    Ah, yes! Thanks Zireael!

    "A chaka, or merchant house, is the most recognized social unit among the people." Shining South

    Consider this query answered fellow scribes.
