[@Howler] Well, welcome, because it's better late than never! If you want a suggestion, the first thing that springs to mind for a name is Ibis... only problem being, that's Latin for owl.

[@Fairess] And then there's my NPC... Storywise, I prefer Elena, and the gift could certainly prove useful, though honestly, depending on the size, it may be a little impractical. As for Finin, Dyan isn't always the most sociable of people, so his connecting with him might be a little difficult, but the ability could be invaluable. Argh, why do you play with my heart like this, Fairess?!?!

EDIT: Also, P.S., I like how our NPCs are personalised.
