Dorn il-Khan and Gromnir il-Khan from TOB

I was replaying TOB recently and ran into Gromnir il-Khan. Gromnir il-Khan is the half-orc Bhaalspawn who is the leader of the town of Saradush in TOB while Dorn il-Khan is the new BG:EE NPC. Are they somehow related? Will Dorn have some sort of dialogue with Gromnir assuming he is included in TOB? What do you think about this similarity? Did you notice it?

    There's a thread about this around here somewhere. But officially they're not related. Il-Khan might be something like Smith for Orcs.

    It would be kind of odd if he was serving CHARNAME (Bhaalspawn) and his cousine bob Gromnir il-Khan was a powerful bhaalspawn too. Talk about getting in with the wrong people.

    Il-Khan is a tribe name (Orcs typically only have given names (and in the case of Half-orcs it depends on if they were originally raised by their Orc or human parent) and then use their tribe name to show where they're from). While they probably hail from the same Orc tribe, it doesn't really imply direct relation, since Orc tribes can become pretty huge and widespread.

    There was a thread mentioning this about every month... I actually think it was intended and there will be some ties with between Dorn and Il-Khan leader/tribe in ToB. But waiting for what the devs have prepared for us...
