In Friday 6/24's digest, Sandy Petersen seconded BAron Chugg's suggestion that the Rokari have a kick-butt female saint with what are way cool ideas on how she offers outlets for women choosing unconventional career choices. Great idea.

But can we please find a name for her that is not shared by a bunch of Duran Duran fans? St. Michelle??? Ugh. Is she really named with a feminized version of Michael, derived from the Hebrew for " Who is like the Lord?"?

I just HATE the use of english (or other recognizable) names in Glorantha. That's why I pronounce it Talar Malaskan Puh-hill-eep-eh.

Mike

Who the hellcrack IS like the Lord, anyway?
