Other but Yes

Brother/Sister of the Quill offers no real IG perk. As flavor to start he can earn perks around it.

Mulan language (assuming it is supported) would be selectable anyhow.

Protection domain is strong but this character will not be any stronger than the min maxed, full plate wearing cleric with War and Strength we've seen.
* I am yes to protection domain and building a kind of heresy around Thoth

No to Trickery Domain. He can select one of the approved Thoth domains for his second one.

edit: ".....Convert others to the path of Thoth and the Mulhorandi gods – Taking away from other deities such as Denir, Oghma and Azuth their faithful and convincing them that those are just facets of the true pharaoh of knowledge Thoth."

AND i love the idea of this heresy starting.

Approved based of Prof's notes

Matriarch

Ini-Herit was the name of a netherese NPC is v5...

Voss_

I think it's one of those "example names" when you google the Mulhorandi culture.

Puffy

Both names are traditional Egytpian names tbh, a bit like Ashby may have had meaning in the past versions but really is just a randomly generated name in nwn and a common name RL.

Matriarch

hm can't find any link to Mulhorandi culture in FR but it is an Egyptian name though.
I do not mind the name itself, it just bugs me that it was the name of a powerful NPC in v5, and the plot had links to the far realms...

Edit: And yes, Puffy, its a name with technically no meaning in Chapter One. It just reminds me of the whole weirdness of the plot and how powerful the NPC was. I will not object to it. Just wanted to point out the awkwardness of it.

Puffy

Eh, can always ask him to change the lastname :)

This. I have no issue with the name and we do have a PC in game with the last name Ashby..

[10:36 AM] Echo: ok the only concern was Trickery Domain, and one voiced concern over the surname Ini-Herit because it was a major NPC in v5 (but I told them it was also a common name) but yah that's it so far. 4 "Yes" votes and 2 "change somethign" votes
[10:36 AM] Strife and Discord: Well I can certainly change the surname, or even remove it completely. I just wanted something with actual Egyptian meaning
[10:37 AM] Echo: yeah I figured as much
[10:38 AM] Strife and Discord: You can change it to Karnak if its that problematic and if it will calm the minds of any objectors
[10:38 AM] Strife and Discord: :slight_smile:
[10:40 AM] Strife and Discord: As for the domain part. Prof told me he would oppose if I submit two different domains, so its not unexpected. I just thought that since both Portfolio, Dogma and the Siblinghood of the Quill talk about secrets and knowledge as two separate things than it was okay to add Trickery. After all they also separate the titles and have two titles for knowledge related variants and one for secrets. Again this is my take
[10:42 AM] Echo: so go Protection and Knowledge?
[10:44 AM] Strife and Discord: I wanted to avoid the cookie cut mold. From what I understand only 2 really have opposition for me taking Protection and Trickery?
[10:45 AM] Strife and Discord: But this is the reason why I thought its possible:

[10:47 AM] Strife and Discord: Again if its an issue for the entire team, I will adjust... But just wanted to put it up for a vote as I wanted to do something out of the cookie mold
[10:50 AM] Echo: I'll put this in the thread
[10:50 AM] Strife and Discord: Sure :slight_smile:
[10:50 AM] Strife and Discord: And name you can change :slight_smile:
[10:51 AM] Echo: mind if i just c/p our convo?
[10:52 AM] Strife and Discord: All good. Just please also add that Trickery offers mostly flavor and doesnt pack any major extra benefit like if I would have taken Spells.
But if the team decides I can only take one not listed Domain - then so be it :slight_smile:
[10:53 AM] Strife and Discord: The surname you can already change in the application if you would like

Prof. Misclick

No Trickery. Secrets is not trickery.

Thoth: Craft, Knowledge, Magic, Rune, Spell

Shar's portfolio includes secrets and she does not grant trickery domain.

Caverns, dark, dungeons, forgetfulness, loss, night, the Underdark, unrevealed secrets

The deities that grant access to Trickery are mostly aligned with portfolios that encourage thievery, stealth, and being a prankster or "Trickster" The notable exception being Oghma but he's a greater deity and whatever.

Secrets is more aligned with KNOWLEDGE and knowing/learning stuff.
Secrets of MAGIC
Secrets of SPELLS
Secrets of RUNES
Secrets of CRAFTS [Domain not supported]

Puffy

Djehutimose Karnak
Domains are Protection and Rune
