I'll have a look through my DDI collection next and add anything new I find to this scroll.
They have been tentatively added until I get a reply from the PM you should be receiving shortly.
And I only just noticed, you already pre-formatted the list in the correct 'Glossary format'. Wow!    |

While I'm quoting Mr_Miscellany, this is actually an open question to any scribe with the FRCG.

On the subject of "plangents" and "Datharathi crystal" is there any mention of the word:
“chaka” – Common:- a Durpari term for ? (Darkvision by Bruce R. Cordell)
on page 118 where the rest of this is presumeably mentioned? As you can see, I have found "chaka" while cross-referencing "plangents" and "plangent/Datharathi crystal" in Darkvision, but don't know if it is better defined (or even mentioned) in the FRCG. |

AFAIR "chaka" was a word for house/ruler. Don't remember for sure, but it was certainly used in FRCS and Shining South (the AD&D one!). So it's not 4e Realmspeak, but older. |

Ah, yes! Thanks Zireael!
