j0, and things. After re-reading TPG and FHYA, and finishing _The Paths of the Dead_, I have concluded that, like Daymar, Paarfi is extremely glompable. I'm not sure if this is all Hawklords or just those two in particular, but I'd like to think that Steve sat down one day and thought, "I need a very glompable House. I bet Hawklords could be glomped very easily. Moreover, it should be a House full of people who, unlike Morrolan, would probably not start taking off heads after being glomped, but instead blink bemusedly." And so on. I could say other things about TPotD, such as that it's YAY to the nth power and that it kept me up all night when I should've been sleeping or studying, but I think that Paarfi's glompiness is the main thing, and in fact the main reason that Steve wrote the entire book. ... If you are wondering about the subject line, it's because I've decided that I want to be as cool as Aerich, and would like to crochet a patch of his family crest. However, I've not been able to find any description of the crest, and wanted to know if Steve had a mental picture of it that he'd be willing to share, or if I'm allowed to just make up something in the Lyorn colors and slap an "A E R I C H" in the middle of it. ¬ MJ ~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~ ~ A Pirate Looks At Twenty ~ http://erythros.livejournal.com/ ~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~
