#1zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 12:16:20 | I ran into few problems in my game, well not problems but question marks... 1.the kagonesti hunt animel for food freely, right? 2.I have heared that the kagonesti sometimes live in long hollow trees...but how do they build them? as far as i know they leave nature at it is, they dont use woodsahpers or something. |
#2theredrobedwizardJul 07, 2004 12:25:16 | 1. Yes, that's part of the natural order. 2. Trees fall down by themselves a lot in forests due to storms and whatnot. The Kagonesti just hollow them out after they fall. Waste not, want not. -TRRW |
#3zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 12:30:34 | ive got another question...regarding of dwarves. how their society define women...I mean, are they the typical medeavel women who cook and cleans or that she is also a strong miner or s\something similiar. |
#4zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 13:52:00 | The Kagonesti are the original elves in Krynn arent they? |
#5zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 13:54:10 | In my encounters with dwarven women I have found that they are treated much the same as males in their society. Dwarven women can own property and businesses as well as participate in government. Many dwarven females work right alongside their male counterparts at the forges and in the mines. Many non-dwarves can't even tell the difference between dwarven men and women due to the fact that many women also have long whiskers or even beards! |

#7zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 14:05:55 | Originally posted by Dusty Traveler LOL I am sorry about all the popping questions but they just keep popping out of nowhere... somebody know how big is the sttelment "lemon" in hylo? In a normal village in hylo how much true kenders there are compared to afflicted kenders? kenders sell weapons? |
#8zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 14:28:54 | From Kagonesti to dwarves, whoda thunk it? |
#9zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 14:52:50 | Originally posted by Amaron Blackthorn yeah...quite absurd... if you want the explanation so here you go: each of my friends play as another ruler. each ruler rule over small settelment of diffrent races. so each and every one of them make my life much more harder... |

Large Town 4,700+
That depends on the town. Afflicted kender prefer the towns that are easily defended. The tre village of Lookit is not very popular, but the village of Hidal where there are a ton of little caves all over is very popular with afflictred kender.
Sure, but most of them barter instead of buy and sell with steel. |
#11zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 14:56:12 | Elves to dwarves to ... kender. *shudder* If it makes you feel any better Amaron I can't remeber ever reading anything on the origins of the Kagonesti. I know they have existed since before the establishment of Silvanesti and its quite possible the Silvanesti grew out of a tribal structure while the Kagonesti never did. |
#12zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 15:02:00 | thanks Dusty Traveler for the help! |
#13iltharanosJul 07, 2004 15:24:30 | Originally posted by Dusty Traveler There's a novel called "The Kagonesti", which gives a nice overview of the race's origins and travails through the years. |
#14zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 15:26:21 | Yes I read that book but I dont recall them being the original elves. But it would make sense that way. Does that book mention it? |
#15iltharanosJul 07, 2004 16:53:28 | Originally posted by Amaron Blackthorn From what I recall, the Kagonesti and Silvanesti were originally one people, but diverged when two leaders emerged advocating two different life-styles, Silvanos and Kagonos. Silvanos advocated breaking from elven traditional tribal/clan structure into one based on Houses. Kagonos and followers opted to stay true to the old elven ways. Those that followed Silvanos became the Silvanesti while the latter became Kagonesti. |
#16zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 17:39:57 | Originally posted by Kipper Snifferdoo Lemon is a loved place by the afflicted kenders? and where did you get the exact info about the town? |
#17iltharanosJul 07, 2004 17:43:46 | Originally posted by stige She probably got it from p. 152 of the DLCS. |
#18zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 17:53:02 | Originally posted by iltharanos Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I cant belive i missed it...i searched all over DLCS & AOM. BaH!!! |
#19zombiegleemaxJul 07, 2004 21:48:44 | Originally posted by stige 1) They do hunt wildlife, but never more then they need, just enough to feed them or their families and that is about it. 2) Well, they also use Lean-Too's, or structures that sound like Teepee's and such. They also construct out of natural materials some buildings, but these are not much more then huts. |
#20zombiegleemaxJul 08, 2004 2:31:34 | For what it's worth, in my campaign the Kagonesti are like Native Americans. If they hunt an animal, everything is used; skin, meat, organs, blood, bones. Each family has a tee-pee, and single warriors have a lean-to. If the terrain offers shelter, that is used instead. I've actually carried a lot of the customs of the Native Americans over to the Kags. Burial rituals, ceremonial dances, and even dress to an extent. In fact I was thrilled to see the rules on counting coup in a recent DL product, and have decided that not only does the Centaurs do it, but so do the Kags. Which I think will lead to interesting roleplaying when the PC's stumble into a group of Kagonesti "braves" and a group of Centaur youth, counting coup on each other. |
#21kipper_snifferdoo_02Jul 08, 2004 7:19:22 | Originally posted by iltharanos Uhmm, just to clarify a bit. "He" (I) did indeed find it on page 152 of the DLCS because I wrote it for the DLCS. heh But where I "originally" found it was in the SAGA Boxed Set Heroes of Defiance, Book One, Page 85. Of course the population is not the same, but the ratio of Afflicted kender to True kender in Lemon is abouit 40% True to 60% Afflicted. If you want to know more about Hylo that book covers all of Northen Ergoth from top to bottom. :D |
