Seeing something looking that similar to Aryan, really causes something bad in me. Especially considering your misspelling in this post! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />I like the background... but made-up words... are not so good. Because we have no clue what it means. Because the moniker in the core book is a mechanical moniker for us - while "Ayran" would be a purely campaign-specific thing - an in-game term. You could do that for a setting-specific PrC (because they have in-game ramifications, or at least, they should have), but the core classes should only be something for us, not for the in-game world.Just as a fighter/paladin should model a knight and samurai alike - because the characters in-game don't know their class name (at least, that was presumed at the start of 3E, later... it got wonkier).However, I can accept very exotic names, using either foreign words or outdated words. I think of Unfettered, Akashic, Magisters, Warmains, Sprytes (as a race)... I know you frequent the AE boards, so you should get my drift, if I say "Monte Cookian Names" (but don't forget that AU/AE embraced being non-traditional). <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Give me a Monte Cookian name, and I'm probably happy!Cheers, LT.</blockquote>
