1. The Noldir (Dark Gnomes/Firstborn) - City: Glimmerdelve
You liked "Noldir" and "Glimmerdelve," and these are already excellent.
- Noldir: Perfect. It sounds ancient, noble, and carries a weight that fits the Firstborn.
- Glimmerdelve: Evokes their innate magic and deep dwelling. It feels authentic to their nature.
Do you feel these are already "authentic enough" for the Noldir, or would you like to explore other names for them or Glimmerdelve with an even more distinct "Firstborn gnome" flavor?
2. Moriquendi (Dark Elves) - City: Narathzul
You liked "Moriquendi" and "Narathzul."
- Moriquendi: As discussed, this is a fantastic choice for traditionalists and directly references elves who turned from the light, while your unique Fëanorian origin makes them distinct.
- Narathzul: This name already sounds ancient and imposing for their city.
Are you happy with "Moriquendi" and "Narathzul" for their authenticity, or would you like to explore further options for them, perhaps leaning more into their specific Fëanorian curse/corruption?
3. The Dwarves - City: Khaz'Abar
You liked "Khaz'Abar."
- Khaz'Abar: This is already very strong and "authentic dwarven" with its guttural, ancient sound, and its connection to the "Khazad" root (without infringing). It implies great age and formidable construction.
Do you feel "Khaz'Abar" is sufficiently authentic for your dwarves, or would you like to delve even deeper into names that reflect their specific creation by Varda after the gnomes, perhaps implying a slightly different aspect of elemental creation?
4. Your Spider Queen's Name (besides "The Weaver of Night")
You liked "The Weaver of Night" as a title, but we were exploring her true name.
- Nyxara
Considering her role as the imprisoned mother, corrupter of the Moriquendi, and embodying a light-consuming primordial evil, which of these (or other ideas) feels most authentically her true name?
5. Eldrinë (Wood Elf Goddess)
You liked "Eldrinë."
- Eldrinë: Sounds very elvish, ancient, and graceful, fitting for the goddess of the wood elves.
Do you feel "Eldrinë" is authentic to the specific nature of your wood elves and their relationship with the moon/hunt, or would you like to explore further?
