Message: <blockquote data-quote="James Heard" data-source="post: 881435" data-attributes="member: 7280">suffixes and red pensHonestly I haven't even decided exactly WHAT they are or what they might actually entail. I simply began from interesting variations on some names and then chose some that looked like they fit somewhat together. After I began I started to use them to denote some sort of amorphous familial relationship. Though all of the gods are related in some manner, the names seem to imply something else in my mind as well. For instance, Marnas Fel with her dual aspect as Marnas Ses certainly hasn't really changed her basic family relationship nor her allegiances but instead the change from -Fel to -Ses seems to be something about her beauty or lack of it. On a more basic level, -Fels are elven/fey, -Durs are dwarves,-Fins are halflings, -Ses' are humanoids, and -Tes are humans and humanoid also (because Grunash and Palas both fit more and more into the same ruined and hopeful reflection of each other I think).Now that a week is past, I'm still unsure of these basic things and on some level I'm not even positive if it's needed to spell out the exact meaning even. After all, gods are rarely known factors like the price of pie. I'm looking to exapnd the suffix list though some, to make the relationships less explicit, and figure out some of the god-dragons and god-monsters (who shouldn't have anything past their names attached at all because they're creatures as well as gods).</blockquote>
