On the other hand, I want to be careful to not offend some RL religions. The True Faith won't be portrayed in an offending way (at least from my point of view), so I would have no qualms about using the word "Christ" for their messiah. On the other hand, something I thought of, I will not do. I was thinking that the Christ (in this homebrew) was a Nakhmir'ite who revolted against their ways and founded the True Faith as a lawful good alternative to their evil ways. However, he was banished from Nakhmir, and thus left for the human empire where his religion flourished. Now, those nakhmir'ites who followed him established many communities in the human lands, so a Nakhmir'ite PC would come from such a place, while those still in Nakhmir remain foes. Also, wizardry (the acceptable magic) comes from those banished Nakhmir'ites, while those still in Nakhmir rather delve in Demonology. Well, if I do that, it could look like a veiled offense against some RL religion. So, I will have to find something else (suggestions welcome!).I will remember that. I try to think about the important names:-- Nakhmir: An old nation of sorcerers, now just a city states in deert mountains. They live in fortified underground cities, and are evil paranoid constantly scheming and watching behind their back. "Nakhmir" (the name of their city) is supposed to vaguely sound and remind the words nightmare and mire. Nakhmir'ite is harder to pronounce than Nakhmirian, I agree, but I believed it has a more exotic sound to it.-- Thungol: Barbarian nomads and raiders from the northern wastes and eastern steppes. "Thungol" is meant to sound as thunder, and then remind of mongols and gnoll (who are a degenerated strain of thungols in my campaign).Things people are already familiar with, I will remember that.</blockquote>
