Celandra is a game in which the players take the roles of societies, rather than playing individual characters. The players will invent a society with its culture and heritage, and will guide its development and interaction with the world. Emphasis will be be placed on developing a detailed history of Celandra, along with myths and legends.

[Cel] Mover and Shakers of Qaiyore.

Since we are about to reach 50 game years I was thinking it would be fun to create a list of the top twenty mover and shakers (number is up to debate) for the past fifty years.  This list would included the good the bad, both thoughs living and thoughs who have died.  I would like everone to suggest people.  Then I will write it as if some Qaiyorian scholar wrote a book entitled something like "The Great Qayorians of the early 15th Century."  (the name is up to debate as well.)
 
I kind of want to do this so that it will be kind of a quick entertaining introduction history for any new players or new luckers who are intrested.
 
List (This list will have more then just twenty but we will narrow it down.  This list includes people who were on the original two movers and shakers list.  So while some societies may not have been played in a while they were still inflential.)
 
Archmage Netra III (Mir)
Tarfn the Traitor (Mir/Sinari)
Valor the Eerith (Eerith)
Hope the High Seeresess of the Eerith (Eerith)
Hisinvol (Sinari)

Master Scourge Labon (Milakanur) 
King Villard (Burcancy) 
Archmage Eubratosa (Mir) 
Seeresses Kala (Sinari) 
Rease (Eerith) 
Duke Yarrow Caladyn (Cedonia)
King Rey-a-man (Celpalar)
King Bar-ri (Celpalar)
Ashanishade (Cormenaera)
Proconsul Deraskin (Aixelsydan)

Emperor Edeath (Torphan)
Tributary (Eerith)
Dr. Aldan Vellin (Cedonia)
Opozoya Villard (Mir/Burcancy)
The Current Vraa'al High Lord (Vraa'al)
 
I am sorry Ibrahim.  I honestly can not keep people from you society straight.  Names are to long.  If I knew their names I would add the important founders of the republic.  Consider them on there and if you could supply the names.
 
Jefferson since yours is a small church that is relatively new I am nor sure who, if any of yours would be be on the list.  I deal most with Mirafelle but I am not sure she would be on the list.
 
Thanks

That's cool Jason  : )   I tend to try to take names from non-European 
sources normally just to spice things up (Australian names would hardly 
be inspiring if I used them), so they can be mouthfuls (I think the 
Panchayyah are the worst in that regard, being modelled on the /long/ 
names of south Indians).

If anyone, I would add _Lord Osric Basiluddin_, last commander of the 
old Guard of the Taltherani Principality of Kaeir, revolutionary leader, 
and founder of the Republic of Kaeir.  Possibly _Lord-Consul Sanus 
Jafaarsan_, current head of the Republic.  The first a full-blown 
revolutionary, the second a pragmatic politician with grand designs (so 
far, annexing all of northern Tirmar, importing the Millat religion, 
founding the Rimrivertown colony, trading with the Ban Horroth).

Lord Karl Von Kahshaar would also be included, as General-Secretary of 
the Republican Information Secretariat, the Kaeirean intelligence 
service (and as such one of the most powerful, and neutral, senators in 
the Republic).

I might also add the founder of the Millati religion, the Alb-Sheikh, 
Faymiyun al Shawari al Milakanuri.  Didn't live for that long, but 
founded a state that unified least half of the Shanari in the vacuum 
after the Sinari, and a religion that has now spread to Kaeir.  What the 
future holds for a religion that specifically rejects worship of any of 
the Celandran gods, restricting worship to the Creator and rejecting any 
magic, is interesting indeed.

cheers,

Ibrahim

[Cel] Mover and Shakers of Qaiyore.

Thanks Ibrahim.
 
Did we want to do the list of movers and shackers?  If so do we want to 20 people or 30.  I think more then that will be to much, but what do you guys think.  If I also could have people tell me who they think on the list of people should be on the list of 20 or 30?  Juuso, Keaton I would like it if you also joined in?

Well, nobody right now. Eventually, however, the "first three" would
need to be considered; that is, the first Primate, Preceptor, and Espiri
Elder. Only the Preceptor is still alive, but I think Primate Hugo
Crespi is the only person who might qualify. He's the one to put the
strongest stamp on Exquaestio's organization, and set a large number of
Exquaestio's policies and motivations. (No offense to the current
Primate, but he's not up for the list. He's a good man and does his job
well, but _great_ just doesn't describe him.)

 >I deal most with Mirafelle but I am not sure she would be on the list.

Not for the _early_ 15th Century, she's only just now really starting to
hit her stride. Depending on events she's a good candidate for the
_whole_ 15th century.
