okay let me clear up some of the questions I have received. Each character would have a "character database" at the end of thier pfile to hold this information. There would also be a command, database <add/list/remove> that would either add someone to your database or list all people in your database or delete members from it. A person would either have to be introduced by a third person who already knows them i.e introduce Saethyr hrothgar would add saethyr to hrothgars database and hrothgar to saethyrs. Or the second way is like such. A male elf with green eyes says ' I am Solath Emrys of such and such. the character in turn types database add solath and viola' they are added. Third I see what your saying about the number thing, mayhaps you could setup a numbering system for all new characters that would start when they were created and increase exponetially(sp) and then this could use that number so that it didn't happen the way you said. I am planning on doing the evil though that once a name has been used it cannot be used again unless the person wants to remake then it will be a drawn out process of me manually removing it from the list.
