Talk:Ensign Charehli

Trivia Bits
I'm sure this is going to crop up sooner or later, and that's the trivia bits associated with a few of the NPCs. In the past, they've been named after several alpha testers, who may or may not have been well known. Those NPCs did not have notes attached to them mentioning a reference. The references were mentioned with Amatz Basin and Zos Shivros Channel, which I contributed to and felt was a bit of interesting trivia (and fit well, considering the amount of relevant trivia on Wikipedia itself as a precedence, as well as the tendency of ArenaNet and other MMORPGs to include Easter Eggs and nods to special people in their games). Ensign Charehli (a reference to Charles Ensign, member of iQ and prodigious game mechanic tester) is one of the few new bosses within Nightfall that seem to be nods to famous alpha testers/players/community members, along with Major Jeahr (JR of Guru and TGH fame), Colonel Custo (Custodian, often referred to as Custo, of the guild QQ), Ensign Lumi (an in-joke, but one in reference to the aforementioned Ensign and Lumi, infamous interview giver and leader of Eternum Pariah), and Corporal Luluh (reference to Lulu the Monk, who now works for ArenaNet, but was famous during his days with Te and for his holding halls). I can understand not putting these in because acknowledging specific players 'seems' to be wrong (whatever that means, although I'm sure some people feel that way), but with references to Enadiz and Zidane, I don't see the harm. Suggestions, yay/nay? --Rustjive 05:27, 30 October 2006 (CST)
