Race Naming Conventions for Viera and Hrothgar

[LinaCake]

Still no news... Well, I got tired of looking at my inappropriate Miqo name and jumped the gun. Veena wise feels quite safe to grab one of the generated surnames and a first name of your flavor. Just hoping Arda doesn't have some really weird/awkward description...

I did some research on what "Arda" was in Revenant Wings, and it seemed to be one of the tallest peaks of Lemures. I'm rolling with it and saying that the Arda are the Veena who refused to move to the lowland forests, even what most Veena would consider the lowlands, and instead dwelled the pine forests of the highlands, subsisting on meat, hardier plants that existed in the higher elevations, and who were even more isolationist than most Viera, only trading with the Xaela on the Steppe in times of extreme scarcity. If it ends up being wrong, well, at least it was a fun story to come up with My character ended up leaving after her clan, in particular, had most of its men wiped out by the Garleans as they marched towards Doma - and she wanted to learn what weapons they were using so that they could defend themselves more effectively against such aggression. Her mother and grandmother did not approve of such heresy, but Sjel was nothing if not stubborn, so she left, and she has not looked back once in her 88 years. Now she is a Machinist and a blacksmith of great renown, learning more about technology so that she can eventually return home and give back to her people - even if they would shun her, they would at least not be left without a way to prevent such tragedy from striking again.

Regardless, in the meantime, greetings sister!
