Name those mephits!

Maerdwyn said:
Since "Archon" and "Mephit", are both of Greek origin, I went with that.

Fire: Kafteros ("Burning")
Steam: Molusis ("Scalding")
Magma: Anatexis ("Melting")

I don't know about Drew, but I LOVE those names!

Don't mephit love impossibly long and pompous names? Oh well, at least they did in 2e.

Fire: Kaltarkanezal Pixieslayer, Lord of the Flame, Mephit of Hottest Fire
Steam: Sarshenastel of the Boiling Seas, the Steamlord, King of Scalding Water
Magma: Borglexathon, He Who Commands the Volcanoes, Melter of Stone, Prince of Lava
 

Well, these selections aren't really up to me. Its ultimately my player's decision. I'll pass this thread along to him though. Mordane76s are pretty good, and I really dig Maerdwyn's greek suggestions as well.

Zappo, that's a good idea. The only problem with that is we want names that can easily be recalled and used during sessions. Perhaps I'll encourage my player to give his mephits big, outlandish titles in addition to cool yet easy to remember names.

Thanks for your help so far. If you have more ideas, keep them coming. :)
 


Good names all of them, but I hardly think the Eumenides (that's smooth breathing, epsilon, upsilon, mu, epsilon, nu, iota, delta, epsilon, sigma for all you bad spellers out there :-) ) are truly elemental. Now, if he had three dretch following him around . . .
