It seems I am not the only person who enjoys level titles – some other aficionados have informed me of some level titles that I have missed. First I would like to address OSE. Last time I said that they don’t have level titles. Technically there’s a paragraph that gives a list prefaced with an instruction to “use these as inspiration if you want.” That is weak and pathetic and I will not platform such laziness. That said, I do have some missed items that I need to address. Onwards! and thanks to turbo.

“But Jeff!,” you say, “you already had level titles from 7voz!” You are correct. But I have missed some contained not within the players book but rather their monster manual! Under EVIL MEN are a new set of titles for each of the classes, similar to what I do in my home games with Lawful and Chaotic level titles.
