Quote from: Ville Takanen
To me, it seems rather unfortunate, that you did not finnish the terms, as I am using the thing, I would like to call it something else than role level 2 ;-)
The common way to do this is to use the non-flavourful terminology in theoretic discussion, but to reinvent the terms in writing the game itself. So we can quite well call the roles by levels here, but when you write a game, you can call the second level role character's Soul or whatever. There's no need to keep a correspondense between theory and practice in terminology.

: that would be "hahmon temaattinen rooli", right?
Yep, although I'd just call it "teema" or "sielu" or Meaning or something else simple and straightforward when using it in a game.
