Raimdelle Reborn: The Neverending Bestiary

[Anonymoose]

Thaumaturgical rendered umbral charged aetherial energy seems like a magical, summoning type process rather than an alchemical, biological breeding program to me

I think the answer there might lie in the "miniature recreation" part. Re-creations need not be the same as the original. The Battle of Gettysburg wasn't fought with blanks, model trains don't require coal, non-wind-up Aldgoats don't explode with chocobo down when slaughtered. If army men can be plastic, I'd imagine miniature bombs can be toys of aether and ash.

Is the word "shkoh!" that appears whenever one speaks their breathing apparatus or an exclamation?

I'd all but call it confirmed that they're breathing sounds. "Pshhhh" being the sound of air passing through the mask on the inhale, "Shkkohhhh" being the pressure of the exhale being enough to penetrate back through. You can hear the same sounds if you cover your mouth and nose with your hands and breath slowly.

I've added all the new mob names to the chart, but a lot remain uncategorized. I haven't gotten much further with most of the issues in the thread, either, but I'll keep picking at it and hope there's still some lore in the mines. Maybe making a bulleted list of unknowns would help.

I've also made it so that anyone can leave info they find as a comment.
