Are all characters in the Tale real-world people?
Actually, none of them are. However, for most of the characters, a real-world person on afp has provided some inspiration. Sometimes only with their name, sometimes by something they have said, written or done. But the characters are all made up – we don’t know any swordcarrying mercenaries, evil sorcerors, mad priests or chicks in chainmail. To the best of our knowledge, at least, and the last category should have been hard to miss.
