I've always loved the Emire of Kotir. What's your ideas on it?

I did some research and Brian based them off the Empire from Star Wars.

I highly doubt that he based it off of Star Wars.

yes, i doubt that too, kotir was content to stay in one general area, the empire wasn't.  Also, Kotir wasn't in Lord Brocktree.

Well i mean Mortspear and them.

kotir was a place, not an empire.

The group was called Kotir. They names their castle, Castle Kotir, if you look

I don't know about Kotir being an Empire, but they did want to rule all of mossflower.

I very highly doubt Mr. Jacques had even seen Star Wars.  I don't really see Kotir being all that similar to the Empire in Star Wars either.  It just reminds me of any old castle with a ruler and an army from the Medieval time.  I'm not saying you can't imagine it as similar, but I'd double check whatever source said Mr. Jacques based any of his writing on Star Wars.  Also, as Verdauga was a Lord, not an Emperor, there's no reason to call it an empire.

It refered to it as an empire in mossflower.

I couldn't find mention of it, but that's not my main point.  My point is if you have researched anything, you have to provide people with a link to the information you found otherwise nobody can examine it for themselves.  You can't get mad about people being skeptical if you don't provide sources for your information.
