Bump. Can anyone post a screen cap of his name? -PanSola 21:55, 18 February 2006 (CST)


 * I'll go in there and grab one tonight. Will post here when done.  --Rainith 10:10, 19 February 2006 (CST)
 * While you are at it, cap his dialogue too when he talks about Tasca. I want to see how many L's Tasca got too. (-:  -PanSola 11:16, 19 February 2006 (CST)


 * Here you go: [[Image:2Ls.jpg]]
 * 2 Ls for both of them. --Rainith 11:33, 19 February 2006 (CST)
 * Good job! I think that's probably a typo/mistake by the designers, but we should uphold it, so the debate is solved! (Wish GW had better checking on this stuff... the number of mis-named green items is terrible.) --130.58 11:45, 19 February 2006 (CST)
 * Warning:Nerd Alert! :P
 * Nah, it's more like the Bajorans (sp?) from Star Trek, Marshall is their family name and it goes first. I think there are Asian cultures that have the same thing.  --Rainith 11:53, 19 February 2006 (CST)


 * In this story they write both "Marshall" and "marshal". I guess they don't know it themselves... *rolls eyes* --Eightyfour-onesevenfive 07:09, 25 February 2006 (CST)
 * In that story, I gathered Tasca's is a marshal whose firstname is Marshall, while Whitman is another marshal. -PanSola 04:08, 26 February 2006 (CST)


 * I don't understand this whole debate. According to M-W, both spellings of the same concept are valid: here. So, I think it is obviously the rank. To say that Marshall is a first name and Marshal is a rank is incorrect. --Karlos 19:00, 26 February 2006 (CST)


 * I think the debate makes sense. Marshal(l)s were historically in charge of cavalry regiments. W(h)itman and Tasca seem more like Lewiss and Clark than military personel. 19:19, 26 February 2006 (CST)


 * If you read the lore entry, it leaves no doubt that they are Marshalls (i.e. military guys). Therefore, given that that title can be spelled Marshal or Marshall, I see absolutely no reason to debate whether their first name could also be Marshall. Check the story, it says "two famous Ascalon marshalls" (small M). --Karlos 19:24, 26 February 2006 (CST)

Little known facts about Marshall Whitman
Did you know that he is a senior fellow at the Democratic Leadership Council? Or that he was formerly a member of the Christian Coalition, the Heritage Foundation, and Sen. John McCain's Director of Communications? I bet Marshall's parents were such big fans of Guild Wars, they named their kid after a famous GW character. 09:06, 23 March 2006 (CST)

Pretty fly for a lvl5 guy
After reading what is known about these guys, I'd say these guys got run to these places. --Jamie 19:07, 6 April 2006 (CDT)
