Talk:Dabron Sashenstar

I wanted to develop another character for the collection of featured articles, a hero to balance out a villain like Larloch. I got interested in a few, like Alusair. But Dabron, having not appeared in any novels to the best of my knowledge, seemed like a quick win. He's not particularly famous and there's not so much about him, but he has a long history, a game appearance, and became fairly important in the last days of 3.5 edition.

Unfortunately, there's only one good image of him, and none of even related stuff like his family or the Merchant's League. I couldn't find a screenshot of his appearance in Baldur's Gate, though I doubt it would be very informative. Still, if anyone can come up with one, it could be welcome. Instead, I used a floating quote and embedded a map to break up the text a bit.

For the map, I wanted to present a kind of trail map of Dabron's journeys, which seemed fitting for an explorer, and demonstrate a good way to use the maps feature. Unfortunately, the maps feature just doesn't work in Monobook (I see a map, but can't open it) and the pins don't show, so it's purpose is unclear to the casual reader.

I think it looks good, but wish it had something a little more... So, thoughts? Ideas?


 * The only thing I was able to find was a quote by Aldeth Sashenstar, but it doesn't mention Dabron so it's not really applicable. I'd say the article is certainly feature worthy, and even if there are tidbits to be found, they can always be added later.
 * I haven't read the whole thing in depth yet, but one phrase stood out as being a trifle awkward. I'm not sure of the grammar rules, but the phrase "...the Merchant's League was near bankrupted." would sound better to me as either "...the Merchant's League was nearly bankrupt." or "...the Merchante's League was near bankruptcy." It's your call if you want to change it. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 15:13, November 9, 2014 (UTC)
