I want to say that Jhegaala are entertainers but I could be wrong and they could be the priests. I'm basing this off of one fuzzy memory that was about a Jhegaala "Bone Dancer" of note. I don't even recall where this was. Book search shows: "desire to take 256 this person to Jawbone Mountain, and there introduce him Jggo!f'tha the bone-dancer, and then ask him again. Should we encounter an Eastern witch who asserts the superiority of his " TPG -122 I'm not sure if this is a Jhegalla or not or my brain was fixating on the Jgg.. bone dancer connection. Don't have access to my book right now. > Similarly for Vallista / Chreotha; they both have some manufacturing / > craft connections, and the Chreotha may have a connection with > tailoring, but what else do we know about them? My gut feeling on the Vallista is that they are the architects/engineers/ "hard" craftsmen (i.e. masons, blacksmiths, etc ) of the world. I'd need to scan a few of the Paarfi to verify this. I seem to recall severals instances when the palace and castle black were being built. -Jot -- Jot Powers http://www.superpowers.us <books at bofh.com> "Everybody generalizes from one example.
