Is that a suggestion, or a reference from a sourcebook Dennis? I'm having no luck finding this reference.
It's a suggestion. |

Telthors are all types of creatures, except humans. The departed humans join their Three patrons, while animals and other beings may stay in Rashemen as spirit-familiars of the hathrans, or protectors of the land. |

The people of Rashemen do stay behind as spirits to protect the land. Telthors can be humanoids, and the whole template states that its for people who died defending their homeland. Fyodor is one such example. |

| Love the idea of the symbol and the telthor-infused equipment. Brilliant! |

The durthans seemed to be too united in their cause. I want to see a detailed telling of their arguments, disagreements, and 'fights' which Anilya (a durthan from James P. Davis's Shield of Weeping Ghosts) hinted at. |

I suggest a mask split into three parts. Each part color coded in the patron deities favorite color. From a distance a person would see a whole mask if the symbol was displayed on a banner. Or instead of a color the three parts could be a figure of the deities favored animal that sits inside the piece of mask. The animal could have dual meaning, not only representing the deity but the spirits of the land. |
I hope Candlekeep continues to be the friendly forum of fellow Realms-lovers that it has always been, as we all go through this together. If you don’t want to move to the “new” Realms, that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with either you or the “old” Realms. Goodness knows Candlekeep, and the hearts of its scribes, are both big enough to accommodate both. If we want them to be.

Enough for now. The Realms lives! I have spoken! Ale and light wines half price, served by a smiling Storm Silverhand fetchingly clad in thigh-high boots and naught else! Ahem . .

Want to influence the design of Rashemen?
