Name that race

[Arbiter of Wyrms]

I like Frazwerg a lot. Or maybe Frasswerg... seems easier to say. Either way, it seems appropriate.

Yeah, so far, I really like Frazwerg - but then, I don't read Cyrillic.

What language is this?

Gulo Gulo is the binomial (Genus and Species) name for a wolverine.

You could do something like Dwergulo/Zwergulo, but it would sound a bit too much like fans of the ICP...which is never a good thing. Or even switch it around...Gulodwerg.

Logan.

Vielfrasszwerg - Wolverine Dwarf - perhaps shorten it to 'Frazwerg' or Vielzwerg
In Russin it comes out as Карлик росомахи

In French, the wolverine is "glouton" (yeah, like "glutton" so the superhero has been named Serval instead) and dwarf is nain (same etymological root as nano), so you could end up with something silly like "glounain"!

But I think "dwolve" (maybe dwolver?) is the best name for now. Very D&D.

How about bearded burrowers?

Why not pronounce the w as a v? Frazwerg sounding like Frahzvurg.

Logan.

Dammit! I was about to say that!

If it's not a logan, you might call them howletts.

Klaus, why don't you whip up some sort of pic for this if you have a few minutes? He commented on his own lack of artistic talent. ...even something rather rough?
