Of People, Places, and Things

It occurred to me the other day that this Mageworlds thing is getting extensive and complex enough that a style sheet/character list of sorts would not be a bad thing to pass along to the copyeditor of the next one when it gets turned in. Accordingly, I've been cobbling some stuff together out of (mostly) spell checker supplementary dictionary files. I thought it might be amusing to post bits of it here for nitpickers and obsessive-compulsives with more spare time than I've got to correct, amplify and add items to. For example--I know for a fact that more Space Force personnel got mentioned by name over the course of the first three books than got added to the supplemental dictionaries.

Anyhow, for your amusement:
