    The issue was that Acheron's name wasn't the initial JP name (which was Titan, but with a different spelling than the primal Titan), so they named him Acheron and were done with it.... until the "real" Acheron came and it kinda crumbled apart. So they renamed it because it had the same model and same name and came in the same raid and that was confusing af.

    V3.0 Halicarnassus and Haukke's Halicarnassus don't have the same appearance, don't come from the same dungeon, and don't even come from the same expansion. There is little confusion possible between them.

    But ... but ... what does Halicarnassus have two of? You don't say and we must know! Horns? Other anatomical bits and bobs (you know you were thinking it)?

    Sorry but the apostrophe in there set off a twitch in the grammar part of my brain.

    Halicarnassuses is the proper pluralization.

    Also Halicarnassi would be incorrect because Halicarnassus is of Greek origin and not Latin.

    Anyways, forgive the tangent.

    We also have 2 Kurrea's now. The A rank hunt in Mor Dhona, and the FATE boss in the Lochs. They're both different mob species.

    I think I was going to say something that required possession, but changed my original title to what you see, but left the name as it was and forgot to fix it. But meh....lol

    I like helping people with their Job ideas, it's fun to help them visuallize and create the job they'd like to play most. Plus I make my own too, I'll post them eventually.

    One is North Kurrea and the other is South Kurrea. They are very different.

    actually, the proper plural wouldn't exist since it's the name of a city. For argument's sake, since the origin is Halikarnassos (forgive the lack of greek letters or accents), the plural would be Halikarnassoi.

    Here's what a Merriam-Webster editor has to say about pluralizing foreign words in English.

    Wouldn't all that go out the window because they are proper names, considering we know she's a succubus and a voidsent?
