[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 7798592, member: 2012"] [B]A Quick Note About Languages[/B] Note that there is isn't a standard 'Common' language for Kanpur, as per the PHB. However, there are two languages that fit that role in The Northwest. The first is called [U]Cliffspeak[/U] and its origins are the coastal cities and towns of the region including not only Bluffside, but also Banbridge, Orra, and Saltmarsh to the south, as well as the Kingdom of Tarminan to the north. The second common language is more widely spoken and originated in the Imperial Lands of Ticinum to the northeast of Bluffside across the Red Mountains. [U]Ticin[/U] is one of the oldest languages on the continent and is this world's equivalent to Latin. Thus, Old Ticinum is basically an old Roman-style empire that has seen better days. The language endures but the Imperial Lands aren't what they used to be. All of the standard racial languages are available with Dwarven, Gnome, and Halfling being spoken the most in Bluffside alongside Cliffspeak. Elven is more often spoken by Bluffside Mountain Rangers, if dealing with humans. Orc is often spoken by sailors and the lowborn. Note that there are other human regional languages but Cliffspeak and Ticin are the important ones for you guys to know. :) [/QUOTE]
