Thanks Mark for beating me to the spelling nit.

Also how about "Lyorn Archivist" with Majikjon's Lyorn logo?  (Ask his

"No matter how subtle the wizard, a knife between the shoulderblades will
seriously cramp his style" (check the quote for accuracy)

"You perceive, I do not ask you to sit" (Sethra's declaration of fierce
enmity from Paths of the Dead)

"It is good to find oneself in agreement with the gods.  It shows the gods
have some wisdom" (Sethra Lavode, PoTD)
