I can't believe that even Morrolan, badass mofo 
title-racker-up-extraordinaire, could be both Court Wizard _AND_ 
Warlord.  Just seems way too much like Zerika putting all her eggs 
in one basket, no matter how swish Morrolan is (lots).

Heh.  That's the reference I was getting out of it.  It also made 
me think of Division Six from Stephen King's _Firestarter_: the 
division of The Shop the sole member of which is John Rainbird, 
assassin and shoe-fetishist.  This is prolly a hugeacious stretch, 
since I seem to recall that SB doesn't read Stephen King, but 
thought I'd mention it as long as we were doing Secret Agency Refs.
