<P><FONT SIZE=2>I believe I tried to add some "filler" stations to the set. Thus, when you rolled "station 6" you actually made a second roll to determine 6-8 (I believe). This allowed be to break out Counts, Dukes, Earls, etc. I also broke the 10 roll into 9 (Royal line) and 10.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I think I also fitted the proper coinage in there by interpolating existing numbers.</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>I can work on something more explicit. The base meanings of the station </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>levels is given in Book One. Means of increasing station for non-human races </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>is mentioned in Book Three. Seemed a workable, simple alternative to me when </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>written. Regardless of the culture, 4 is low noble, 6 is noble and 10 is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>royal. 2+3 are middle class. 0 + 1 are peasant.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>I read this and wonder how people played most non-human races in their</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>games.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>></FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>In my world, nobody ever played a Faeery. Never.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>></FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>I think I might have seen ONE elf. The problem being that for the most</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>part, many cultures don't like or trust elves (especially around Donara,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>which being close to Caldo (the main center we tended to use) was</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>troublesome.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>></FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>Dwarves were more accepted, at least in cultures with any sort of elder</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>respect.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>></FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>In short, my world was much more humano-centric then Scott's obviosly was</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>for his play-by-mail game (and probably face-to-face games). I guess I</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>played my world a lot more gritty-realistic in that sense in that non-human</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>races just tended to get crapped on by the cultures in the area, so they</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>relagate themselves to their various enclaves.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>Richard, you have in book 3 some mentioned notes on non-human society. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>Could</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>you do a article to clarify some of those points? Maybe make a cultural</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>thesis on the non-human races (or even human for that matter) in regards to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>station. How one might obtain one level and examples, etc. Priesthood I</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>believe you did this well with the ranks and such and it woul dbe nice for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>the other areas like non-humans (and/or humans). The info is there to work</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>with but for some new to such things (newbies) might help them figure out</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>things and how to play say a Elf trying to become king... ie rites of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>passage....dos/don'ts..taboos..etc...</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>In stormbringer they detail alot of this with their Elan system of using</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>magic so would be nice to see a more detailed explanation of society and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>station in pnp. :)</FONT>
