Subj: The True Name of Cooper

As you know, it is not uncommon for someone to remember the wrong name
after freshly stepping out of the Portal of the Fate. However, once a
person re-establishes him or herself within life in Lusternia for a
period of time, it is extraordinarily rare to discover that the name he
or she remembers is wrong.

However, such an extraordinarily rare occurrence has happened. Let it be
known that the Fates have discovered, for reasons too arcane to
understand, that the one known as Cooper has been laboring under wrong
name since stepping out of the Portal of Fate.

His true name is Armand.

Penned by My hand on the 25th of Avechary, in the year 140 CE.


This post is very interesting to me. Not because of the seemingly unprecedented contents, but rather the post number. Estarra reveals Her true colours after all evil.gif

I'm a little jealous, of course, as Shorlen was not the name I wanted for this character - the name I had actually wanted was taken two hours before I created him, and the character has since been deleted for inactivity (someone with no skills who never logged in after creation). But such is life tongue.gif

Estarra bears the mark of the beast, and I fear the world's end is upon us.
Arix2006-02-16 20:55:22
Pssssh, Arix has been saying that for years....
Diamondais2006-02-16 20:58:31
Does this mean I can actually do something about my name? Im sure Diamante would -love- me if I could change it, not to mention just about everyone who mistells to me.
Ialie2006-02-16 21:54:24
How about a name change artifact for 500 credits. One use tongue.gif
Diamondais2006-02-16 21:56:22
If that happened youd be stuck with Diamondais and Diamante forever as I wouldnt buy it, dont know about Diamante though.
Estarra2006-02-16 22:28:40
Once a character establishes him or herself and develops a history, it is very very rare that you will be granted a name change. If you are granted a name change after establishing your character, it will be publicly announced so everyone is so informed. We will never allow a character to wipe out his or her past history (or hide from others) with a name change.

((Speaking of name changes.. it would be kinda nice if when a novice name changes, it records on the city and guild logs.. it would be easier to keep track that way..))
Athana2006-02-16 22:54:08
Ooh! So we're allowed a namgechange now or is this just a special circumstance?

Naw, Estarra's an Angel!

Anybody who's a fan of and/or and influenced by my favorite trinity of creators (Charles Schulz , Chris Claremont , and Gary Gygax can be nothing but somebody from the heavenly hosts. wub.gif

Well, at least in my mind. tongue.gif
