Talk:First Empaths

Note: I might be wrong on the connection between Trylaine and the First Empaths. It seems the logical conclusion based on the snatches I know about the event, but I've been wrong before. Reene 12:50, 26 November 2007 (CST)

This is a really well written entry, but it doesn't provide much in the way of sources. Was this information gleaned from books, in-game events, or what? --Basselope 16:55, 26 November 2007 (CST)

...And a smattering of currently non-existent posts detailing the Trylaine event, as well as followups explaining the nature of Empathy and Empathic Shock that came after the skill name change. Reene 19:59, 26 November 2007 (CST)

Nicely done, Reene. I would just question one very small point, whether it's accurate to say non-empaths instinctively suppress their empathy, rather than unconsciously learn to suppress it. My understanding was that the empathy is instinctual as a default. --Farman 20:13, 26 November 2007 (CST)
