[edit] Swamp Elves

[edit] Personality

Swamp Elves believe in slavery, and their social levels are well-defined, each level having evolved separately

[edit] Language

Swamp Elves speak a twisted version of Elven, but cannot generally speak common.

[edit] Names

Swamp Elves have five names: a given child name, a chosen child name, a adult name, a rank name, and a family name. A given child name is based on the chosen child name of their same gender parent, but with the prefix Plac-. A chosen child name is unique, but some common bases are: (male) Elx, Nakl, and Xian (female) Penx, Valdæn, Oxna and Roh. An adult name is based on their chosen child name, but with the suffix -kal. The rank name is suffixed onto the family name, which is a compound Swamp Elven word, such as Ænagnis (Darkheart), Salmites (Swampflower), Salgnis (Swampheart), etc. The rank suffixes are:

• Nobility: Draak
• High citizen: Delan
• Low citizen: Alt
• Slave: (none is needed, and master's family name is used)
