 Another very striking difference between kavkema and Deinodons is their level of technology. While the Deinodons were greatly outnumbered by their nemesis faction, they were technologically //matched// by them - the dinosaurs on Lossos generally had technology that exceeded that of humans, across the board. Out of a far better economic understanding, the author has taken technology away from the kavkema and turned them into a nomadic culture constantly on the literal run.
-Note that the //faction// 'Deinodon' with its ideals and motivations has largely dissolved into the organisation [[:kavkem:organisations:Shy͡ilun]].

 The Deinodons were also fond of [[:kavkem:society:qasai|death]] over suffering, and their clash with the other faction over this philosophical difference was a central plot point.

   * The kavkema are still mostly religious or spiritual and still prefer dying to getting tortured.
   * **Jeneth** is a minor antagonist - that said, he has been greatly toned down from the //force of evil// he used to be (far closer to his depiction as //[[:kavkem:mythology:Tkanetar]]//, then known as //Kanus//), although this doesn't manifest in any actual changes, since he was absent from the books, surfacing only later for some roleplay (back on //InsideTheWeb// and in the author's early IRC roleplaying days).
-  * **Madjan** is absent, but supposedly a pretty impressive guy. The author has forgotten how he used to be called.
+  * **Madjan** is absent, but supposedly a pretty impressive guy. His old mythological name was Kronos; he probably didn't have a proper name, the author does not recall him ever making an actual appearance.
-  * **Zalaagra** has seen some change - the original continuity had her a little more involved (although if the author recalls correctly, not in the actual books, but only the aforementioned later narrative efforts). That was largely because her worlds were a lot more accessible than they are in the new continuity, however. In the original setting, it was easy for her to hop over to say hi. The author has forgotten how she used to be called, too.

   * **Valcen** is still, most notably, a (hopefully) temporary ally to the Nayabaru. The original books never got into his reasons - indeed, the author never bothered to come up with them. In the books, he eventually switched over to helping the kavkema. The author was sufficiently intrigued by his unspoken motivation to switch sides that she wanted to explore exactly what led up to that, which is why she chose to make Valcen the narratively central character in //A Thread Between The Stars//.
