Note on Standard Usage
Quite a number of contributors to Project Aon have reported inconsistencies regarding the use of words such as Drakkar across the series. After much research into the usage of Drakkar/Drakkarim, Nadziran/Nadziranim, and Ligan/Liganim across the books, we have decided to standardise the usage of the words in the following ways, which represent majority usage:
noun (s.): Drakkar
noun (pl.): Drakkarim
adj: Drakkarim
noun (s.): Nadziran
noun (pl.): Nadziranim
adj: Nadziranim
noun (s.): Ligan
noun (pl.): Liganim
adj: Liganim
All of the other words ending in -im either already conform to these rules (i.e. gazim, kuzim, lajakim, rekenarim, Sharnazim, and Tefarim) or cannot be conclusively tied to Darkland languages (e.g. Ghagrim).
Footnotes
[1] (The Game Rules) The Discipline bonuses mentioned do not affect your permanent scores. If you have completed previous adventures, the Disciplines that you have mastered may still be
beneficial. See the Grand Master Rules section of the Readers' Handbook for details.
[2] (The Game Rules) If you have completed any previous Lone Wolf Grand Master adventures, remember to choose an additional Grand Master Discipline and add +1 to your basic COMBAT SKILL and +2 to your basic ENDURANCE for each adventure you successfully completed (cf. Grand Master Disciplines).
[3] (Grand Master Disciplines) Weaponmastery bonuses are replaced by Grand Weaponmastery bonuses, not added cumulatively (cf. Lone Wolf Club Newsletter 28).
If you have completed previous adventures, already possess the Magnakai Discipline of Weaponmastery with Bow, and have reached the rank of Mentora, it seems that you should already be able to add 5 to numbers picked from the Random Number Table (i.e. the basic Weaponmastery with Bow bonus of 3 added to the Mentora bonus of 2 for all missile weapons). Likely, the author intended the Weaponmastery bonus at the Mentora rank to be a ‘hidden loyalty bonus’ (cf. Lone Wolf Club Newsletter 28). In view of this, the +2 Mentora bonus is therefore not cumulative with Grand Weaponmastery with Bow.
Certain sections direct the reader to use different bonuses when using a Bow, ranging from 3 to 5, if you have Grand Weaponmastery with Bow. This may be the author adjusting the Grand Weaponmastery bonus on a case-by-case basis (and therefore this bonus should be used instead of the standard bonus) or an error (and therefore all of these bonuses should be 5). It is up to you to decide, but it seems most reasonable to follow the first alternative, to replace the Grand Weaponmastery bonus with whatever bonus is mentioned in that section.
[4] (Section 339) According to The Game Rules section of Flight from the Dark, a Helmet ‘adds 2 ENDURANCE points to your total.’ Additionally, in The Game Rules section of Fire on the Water, a Chainmail Waistcoat (which is probably the closest approximation to a Breastplate) ‘adds 4 ENDURANCE points to your total.’ You may decide to apply these bonuses should you purchase the items from this shop. However, bear in mind that neither Helmets nor Chainmail Waistcoats may be brought over from the Lone Wolf Magnakai series into the Lone Wolf Grand Master series, so the bonuses for wearing these Special Items are purely speculative and do not form part of the official rules.
