He would've been a fun one to see in there...

Actually, yes he did. Four of us are in Draconian measures, two as
characters (Granak and one I don't care to mention), and two
draconians are mentioned in passing, Tolstrup being one of them.

Sorry I've been delayed in posting.
For the novels, there's acutally a lot more than one realizes.
Dalamar was originally a name of a Gencon person that Margaret thought
was a cool name.
Dezra (if she is not believed to be an alias of Tracy Hickman) was
written in as a friend of Tika in the short stories.
There's Nikol and Michael are named after two people, Nicole and Mike
Stanach(sp?)
Technically in Leave from the Inn of the Last Home, each contributor
is recognized as an in-person character who helped
So that means Janet Pack, John Grubber, Stan!, Steve Miller, and
others are in-world characters
As for draconian measure
There's Granak, Yakonah, Pol'lard (After Ed Pollard), Morten (although
his name is mispelled), Rohan.
In the latest book Amber and Iron, Cam (after Cam Banks) was listed.

Wow! Great fan-service!
...and I suppose this sort of thing ensures that each book has at least one
*guaranteed* customer!

- :-) - and don't forget their friends!
- for historical reasons, this process is known in sf & fantasy
as "tuckerisation", and it's not unknown for considerable sums
to be raised for charities by the auctioning off of the oppor-
tunity to be tuckerised by - for example - terry pratchett (in
which case the charities concerned have tended to involve orang-
utans, hedgehogs and perhaps latterly, research into alzheimer's
disease). - i doubt there's ever been an attempt to list all the
examples within the worlds of fantasy & sf, though...
- love, ppint.
