Talk:Proxy

Dear community,

the merge suggestion was done after seeing that the exarch article claimed “proxy=old name for exarch“. They share so many characteristics that it is easily believable. The problem is, that I didn't find the information in the reference, is this mistake? And even if it is, should it still be merged, after all the characteristics are very similar as to be mistaken with each other?

Thank you for reading

Best Regards

 * Here I would like to point out that 2nd edition Planescape uses the term "proxy" in a different way: They are the most important servants of a deity, endowed with special powers, but by no means deities themselves. I have found a few instances where that concept has been used in Realms sources. Not sure how to best sort this out, though. Daranios (talk) 14:13, January 18, 2017 (UTC)


 * Dear Darainos,


 * thank you for the reply and my apologies for my late one.


 * I didn't know about the 2e version but they too were just servants right? The 3e version are “gods“ but lack the most important characteristics, handing over spells and taking souls to their realms.
 * May I ask whether it could be a useful point to say something like "got the position from them and shared characteristics but not actual gods for they lacked...“?


 * Again thank you for replying
