==About PlentyWiki==
PlentyWiki is an ''online open-content collaborative encyclopedia'' - that means you can edit and add pages here, and others can make further changes to them.
The goal is to gather here
* articles about the characters, places and significant items from [[Robin Hobb|Robin Hobb's]] [[Realm of the Elderlings]] books
* later on we're planning on expanding to other worlds created by her as well
* list of all the editions and translations of Hobb/[[Megan Lindholm|Lindholm]] stories
* cover art of all editions and translations

So far we have begun the salvage or translation of '''{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}''' scrolls from the libraries of [[Jhaampe]], [[Buckkeep]] and [[Jamaillia city]].

Red Ship bastard

2008-02-14T00:25:21Z

ChriSchaeffer: I specifically ask Robin about what this term really meant and it turns out that this article was wrong.

A term referring to the resulting offspring from the raiding of the coastal cities and raping of the women along the coast of the [[Six Duchies]] during the [[Red Ship War]].

Feisty

2008-02-03T18:46:14Z

ChriSchaeffer: Added a description of Fitz's role in the dog's life.

The dog of Lady [[Grace]]. [[Fitz]] saved the dog's life by pulling a chicken bone from its throat and instructing Lady Grace to stop feeding her pet such rich foods and let it get some exercise.

Kelvar

2008-02-03T18:12:11Z

ChriSchaeffer: Added a little more depth to his description.

Duke of [[Rippon]], married to Lady [[Grace]]. He is described as a thin and harried aged old man who took a very young wife and gave her riches to cover for his failing manhood.

ChriSchaeffer:

Hmm, I've thought that a "Red Ship bastard" meant a child born to a woman who was raped by a Red Ship Raider. Anyone else? [[User:Sini|Sini]] 18:09, 11 January 2008 (EET)

No, I believe that the article is right. When the child's mother and father were killed or Forged, they would have to try and make it on their own.[[User:ChriSchaeffer|ChriSchaeffer]] 23:45, 12 January 2008 (EET)

Talk:Book Cover Gallery

2007-09-12T00:43:19Z

ChriSchaeffer:

I have added new pictures of the Voyager hardcovers that show only front of the book isterad of the whole dustjacket. I felt that the gallery looked better this way. - [[User:Qlberts|Qlberts]]

I wonder if we should split the gallery soon, separate pages for ML and RH books perhaps? It might become very heavy to load otherwise. We could also perhaps use series' titles as headers, making navigating the page easier?

Can someone from the UK and the US look at the Tawny Man covers, please? I'm not sure if all of them are real, actual covers, or whether some of them are just variations that have been up on sites before the books came out. This happened with Renegade's Magic, for example... the picture that was at Robin's official site was slightly different from the actual one that came out. [[User:Mervi|Mervi]] 23:15, 10 September 2007 (EEST)

I can vouch for the US covers. I know they are real. [[User:ChriSchaeffer|ChriSchaeffer]] 02:51, 11 September 2007 (EEST)
: Thanks! Do you have any idea what is the difference between the US covers for the Golden Fool - is one a hardback and the other a paperback or something? [[User:Mervi|Mervi]] 02:58, 11 September 2007 (EEST)
:: That's the only one I was questioning. I know the red cover IS the paperback, but I'm not sure about the other one. Amazon.com says that it is the hardcover, but I have never seen a Golden Fool hardcover in real life. [[User:ChriSchaeffer|ChriSchaeffer]] 03:43, 12 September 2007 (EEST)

Kennit

2007-07-09T22:20:05Z

ChriSchaeffer: spelling errors and added wintrow's relationship Kennit.

A pirate based in [[Divvytown]]. Captain of the [[Marietta]]. Also known as the King of the Pirate Isles, Kennit was actually the son of [[Lucto Ludluck]] and was born aboard the family's liveship [[Paragon]].

Pirated [[Vivacia]] away from the [[Vestrit|Vestrit Family]] and took [[Wintrow Vestrit|Wintrow]] hostage.

Kyle Haven

2007-07-08T15:02:08Z

ChriSchaeffer: Added Kennit's role in Kyle's story, but I can't remember the name of the island he was held hostage on.

Husband of [[Keffria Vestrit]], father of [[Malta Vestrit]], [[Wintrow Vestrit]], and [[Selden Vestrit]]. Captain of the [[Liveship]] [[Vivacia]], before it was pirated away by [[Kennit|Captian Kennit]], who killed most of his crew and took him hostage. In the end, Kyle was killed on the decks of [[Paragon]] during a battle with Jamaillian warships.

Talk:Kyle Haven

2007-07-08T14:39:14Z

ChriSchaeffer:

Was Kyle *from* Chalced or was he only half-Chalcedean? If he was the latter, I think the categories are okay as I added them, but if he's *from* Chalced originally, we should add him to that category too.

I believe Kyle was actually from Chalced and my reason for thinking that is because when Malta describes herself to her Jamaillian captors (SoD), she states that she is of Bingtown (her Mom) and Chalced (her Dad). [[User:ChriSchaeffer|ChriSchaeffer]] 17:39, 8 July 2007 (EEST)

Talk:Cindin

2007-07-06T12:05:33Z

ChriSchaeffer:

Are we trying to stay away from spoilers, or is anything open for discussion?
: So far we haven't avoided spoilers. We do have a warning on the front page. But I am kind of worried about the visitors who come straight to character pages by doing a Google search... then again, if you're looking for information about a certain character online, you're expecting to find spoilers, right? [[User:Mervi|Mervi]] 11:35, 6 July 2007 (EEST)
//True, but say they have only read the first 5 books and looked up this Cindin page and then clicked on the Brashen link and read about Althea's relationship with Brashen. That would spoil the end of book 6... but as you said, you don't go looking through book wikis without worrying about spoilers.

Verity's sword

ChriSchaeffer: This page needs more info.

'''Verity's Sword''' was given to [[Fitz]] by [[Dutiful|Prince Dutiful]].

Cindin

2007-07-06T02:03:35Z

ChriSchaeffer:

'''Cindin''' is a strong drug taken by placing it between one's gum and lip. It is known to cause sores inside the user's mouth and dilute one's sense of pain and ability to make decisions.

[[Brashen Trell]] was a heavy user of the drug until his love of [[Althea Vestrit]] drove him to quit the habit. Brashen and Althea had their first romantic encounter under the influence of Cindin while they were both working aboard the [[Reaper]].

ChriSchaeffer: Added note of Althea and Brashen's love affair.

Disowned son of a Bingtown Trader family. First mate on [[Vivacia]], during [[Ephron Vestrit]]'s captaincy. Worked as the third mate aboard [[Reaper]] and as a mate aboard [[Springeve]], Captain of [[Paragon]] during [[Vivacia|Vivacia's]] rescue attempt.

Crowned Rooster Chamber

2007-07-04T14:55:16Z

ChriSchaeffer:

Located in the ancient city of [[Frengong]], the Crowned Rooster Chamber was used to house the Dragon's cocoons during the cataclysm, so that they would not be destroyed. It was an immense chamber with a high, glass dome atop. The chamber was used for gatherings, meetings, and for the carving of the memory stones. There were doors and mechanisms built to accomodate the large pieces of [[memory stone]] that would have been brought into the chamber for the carving of Elderling Dragons.

ChriSchaeffer:

A pirate captain that stole [[Paragon]] from the [[Ludluck]] family and kidnapped [[Kennit]] in order to use the [[liveship]] to hide his treasure on the [[Rain Wilds]] River. Igrot sodomized and tortured Kennit as a boy hostage on the [[Paragon]]. Igrot was finally beaten to death and his crew was posioned and killed by Kennit on the [[Paragon]].
