Talk:Emperor of Cantha

Bah
I don't think the Imperial Court and Imperial Bearuacracy logically belongs in this article. They are related to teh Emperor, but they aren't part of the Emperor. Makes more sense to either give them their articles, or stuck it under Canthan (Nation). - 05:12, 8 June 2006 (CDT)
 * The court quite clearly does belong to the Emperor, but the bearuacracy (sp?) not necessarily. I wouldn't mind removing the bearuacracy section. Most of the info is already in the articles Cantha and Celestial Ministry. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 06:21, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

Emperor's Hand/Voice/Blade
The article currently makes it sound like there is more than one Emperor's Hand/Voice/Blade at a time. My understanding is that these titles are unique, i.e. there is only one (of each type) at a time. This ties in with the question whether it's "The Emperor's Blade" or just plain "Emperor's Blade" (See: Talk: Emperor's Hand. If I remember correctly the manual is pretty clear about it, but I only have the German manual and I don't have it at hand right now, so could somebody else please check the manual? --  06:39, 8 June 2006 (CDT)


 * You're correct, the manual does state they are one of a kind each. Voice speaks on behalf of the emperor, blade is the emperor's brute force and Hand is the emperor's "get it done" guy who operates between words and violence. --Karlos 07:03, 8 June 2006 (CDT)


 * sniff* *sniff* Ok, so the Blade has a "the" and the other two don't. Wonderful. :( --Karlos 07:10, 8 June 2006 (CDT)


 * "There are masters of swordsmanship, known as the Emperor's Blade." there IS a master. --Jermoe 00:22, 20 July 2006 (CDT)


 * Why master of swordsmanship...wouldn't that be kinda a wasts of attribute points? He is seen to be wielding an axe

Statistics
On average each emperor serve approximately 52 years. Shorter lifespans of some emperors who died early would slightly increase the average expectency of rulership. From this we can speculate that Emperor-ship doesn't frequently get passed from Father to Son, but are more likely to skip generations. - 11:24, 12 July 2006 (CDT)

Capitalisation
I know I'm nitpicking here, but is there any precedence for the capitalisation of all the He and Him words referring to the emperor? As far as I can remember, no NPCs did that. Kessel 21:31, 23 November 2006 (CST)
