The d20 FAQ used to include this Q&A: Q: What does "potation" mean? A: It's an obscure legal term that means "conversion from one form to another"... That's all I can find of the quote right now. It's now longer part of the d20 FAQ. As you said: it's not a typo, but rather an unfortunate word choice. You want "obscure legal term"? The word's not used in a legal sense on any Web site I can find so far EXCEPT FOR OGL licenses. The exceptions are two pages that look to have been translated from other languages, and I can't really get the sense from them. Martin L.
