A thought on race capitalization: I favor preserving the original capitalization here because this was written from the perspective of an Illistim elf and one could interpret the capitalization as their tendency to categorize people by nations rather than species, so that "Elves", "Humans", and "Clans" refer to their respective nations by Illistim reckoning but "dwarves", "orcs", "trolls", etc. which are not capitalized are not considered as such. |

:you forgot to sign! :) You make a very good point, but the capitalization did seem inconsistent throughout, and I really can't determine intention when both Zul Logoth and Turamzzyrian Empire were spelled wrong in every instance. But I can easily go back and change the capitalization. [[User:VANKRASN39|VANKRASN39]] ([[User talk:VANKRASN39|talk]]) 16:09, 21 September 2016 (CDT) |

A thought on race capitalization: I favor preserving the original capitalization here because this was written from the perspective of an Illistim elf and one could interpret the capitalization as their tendency to categorize people by nations rather than species, so that "Elves", "Humans", and "Clans" refer to their respective nations by Illistim reckoning but "dwarves", "orcs", "trolls", etc. which are not capitalized are not considered as such.
- you forgot to sign! :) You make a very good point, but the capitalization did seem inconsistent throughout, and I really can't determine intention when both Zul Logoth and Turamzzyrian Empire were spelled wrong in every instance. But I can easily go back and change the capitalization. VANKRASN39 (talk) 16:09, 21 September 2016 (CDT)
