I'm curious as to how you guys came up with the names of the gods.
Or how drunk you were o.o
Seriously though, do you have some kind of system? Like, three consenants then a vowel? Or just go insane with the keyboard until you found something readable?

That's a very good question, but don't look at me for an answer. The names are their fault *points at Tre and Xen.*

Okay Oz, I've created up one very complex language. It has a 36-odd-letter alphabet, numerous writing systems, grammar, pronounciation, punctuation, and more. I have numerous simpler languages. I have named people and creatures probably nearing the thousands. I make up names for things constantly and I consider myself knowledgable on how names and words work. I only know English and my own languages though. I guess words are somewhat my specialty. I like to add depth. Does that answer your question?  Oh and I don't drink alcohol. Like. At all. |

Somehow I sensed that by the bridge of your nose.
And it half does o.o

Half answered? What can I be more specific about?

How you generated the insanely long names, FROM your languages.
Also did you base your custom languages on existing real world ones?

Of course it's impossible to create a language without SOME influence from others, but they're about as original as I can make them. There is no visible resemblance between English and my language's words, letters, and grammar. The long names are combinations of meaningful things from the language. I'm going to change their spelling quite soon, though, just now realising an error I'd made >_>

So really they're a collection of profound sayings.

Meaningful. Not profound. And I can't really be more specific, because these kinds of things are confidential at a certain level  |

I suggest you invest in some lightweight copyrighting.
