Talk:Evenhand

I've compiled everything we know about the Evenhand family, with kind help from George Krashos in the Candlekeep forum. Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 13:41, October 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, that's something, though it's not quite canon. And there's still no connection between the Sevenecho Evenhands and the Westgate Evenhands. Based Krashos's account of Torst being just some guy from Westgate, I don't think we need a family page for him at all now (as no character gets a family name page unless that family is noble/royal or specifically important all by themselves). -- BadCatMan (talk) 13:52, October 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * Canon policy states that authors' comments on their own work are to be considered canon so George's comments should be good enough, although obviously it's not like he has gone away and fact-checked everything and had it proofed by WotC!


 * I suppose you could argue that the Evenhand family from Westgate is not the same as the Sevenecho one. Readers will make that assumption though. If you like, we could have Evenhand (dealing with the Sevenecho family) and Torst Evenhand (the guy from Westgate) as separate articles, and make sure to explicitly state that there is no canon connection between the two. I'd actually prefer to keep things as they are since I'd rather wait for a source that says they're not the same family. Westgate and Sevenecho were not all that far apart!


 * The reason for keeping the family page would be to categorise it under human families, even if there's not a great deal of text. I reckon that's a good enough reason to have it there, although the counter-argument might be that this would mean we'd need to have a separate family page for every character we have here on the wiki.
