From Isles of Darkness

The following is a list of all the PCs and NPCs in continuity who have the Fame merit and is therefore genre-unspecific. Please add your PC to the relevant section. If they have a 'stage name' they are known by for the Fame, please use that instead of the name other PCs would know them by (but put the PC name after it in brackets if you think it important).

Generic Fame is listed first, and then specific areas are listed alphabetically. If you add a new section, please put it in the right order else Vecna will eat your first born child for breakfast.
