There are a lot of fun things you can do with the nemesis's unique ability, such as hiring one to teleport you out of jail. Or better yet, combine self-hypnotism and a nemesis assistant to make yourself the greatest escape artist in the world!  :P --Oldman40k2003 09:23, 4 March 2008 (PST)

haha nice idea XD

Concerning the name nemeses I am not sure.. in plural could it gives something like nemesises instead ?



An unscrupulous assistant would go through a lot of escape artists... or rather a lot of escape artists would go through her!

Well, in English the proper plural of "nemesis" is "nemeses", and that's that as far as spelling is concerned. However, if you really want to there's no reason why you can't pluralize "nemesis" as "nemesises". Most people would pluralize it (wrongly) as "nemesi" anyways, (I had to go look up the correct pluralization) and only the really pedantic will even care. It's not like it's absolutely forbidden to change the way things are spelled, or even making words up as you go along ("Jabberwocky" by Lewis Carroll springs to my mind here, as half of those words don't make any sense today, and the other half didn't make sense when he wrote it, although we've attached meanings to them since then.) --Oldman40k2003 21:06, 10 March 2008 (PDT)

hehe ok ^_^


"One of their main and most dreaded weapon is missing on Felarya though:...". In this context "weapon" needs to be pluralized into "weapons". This is because we are talking about one of their many weapons, with the subject being the "group of weapons". It's similar to "One of those cars..." or "One of their tools...".
