Do you folks think your club is cool or funny? I think it's a freakin' weak disguise for your misogony.
Who doesn't want TC back! Wait and watch and if your able ...read. have a little faith after all you've invested a lot of time and effort in SRD haven't you?
BTW you are certainly entitled to your opinions and I should try harder to respect them but they come across as very anti woman and offend me. yes I am one of those feminists -Being In Total Control of Herself get it?
I have experienced a profoundly personal connection to the characters of Thomas Covenant and Linden Avery and found their struggles with the paradox of power and necessity of evil to be a great resource for personal growth and self-examination.

Fist: I believe that SRD has repeatedly denied any connection between Anele and Elena in the GI. He claims that it is merely a coincidence.

Food for thought:
The probability that any character in the cronicles gets a five letter name (by chance alone) that is the same as an existing character spelled backwards is:

Number of five letter characters = N5c

Number of letters in alphabet used = Nl (26 in english)

N5c/Nl^5

I did the algebra you do the math :)

Linden, as Sun Sage, surpasses our humble judgement. And Elena - well, she was just too cute to hate. Even if she did ruin everything. :D

I guess my avatar doesn't help my case if I try to argue that idea.
But hey! It's the only pic I had of Linden to work with.
And seeing her getting blasted with Banefire is pleasing to my eye.

THOOLAH seems a most worthy guild! If only it had been around 26 or 27 years ago, much disaster might have been averted!

I regret to inform you that the mathematical capability of THOOLAH falls short of the accepted standard. I have given you time for self-correction, but since this has not happened I must give you a failing grade.

For example, I enjoin you to think of the various likelihoods of the possibilities that SRD might have named Anele Aaaaa, Wendy, or Pkcfl or even something with more or less than five letters. I assume you now understand the probabilities in question cannot be expressed with such a simple formula.

LOL! I'm not sure my wife agrees on that :)

The likelihood of any of these names is exactly the same, which is why it is amusing that the name selected had a profound similarity to an already existing character. So actually, you are not undermining my calculation, but supporting the point I am trying to make ;)

Btw, I am not a card carying member of thoolah, just a currious spectator to all litterary fractioning.
