I would like to start a list of divine and daedric NAMES that use wordplay. I’ll start the list.

The Dedaric Prince MOLAG BAL.

Molag Bal is the leader of the Daedric forces Controlling the Imperial City of Cyrodil.

“Quote” Reference from the FAQ.

• “The primary force of evil driving the plot events of TES:O is the sinister plot of the Daedric prince of domination, Molag Bal, who seeks to subjugate all of Tamriel under his will.”

Molag Bal could be interpreted as “More Latency Ball”. A Waltz, Dance, or Party.

“Mo” = More , “Lag” = Latency , “Bal” = Ball.

“More Latency Ball”.

Since this is an MMO, and we are all connected to the Internet, Latency is a large issue. More Lag = players die easily. Another strange thing about “Molag Bal” is that he has “STOLEN THE SOULS OF THE PLAYERS”. Wat?

“Quote” reference from the FAQ.

• “Playable characters in TES:O are adventurers whose souls have been stolen by Molag Bal. This procedure explains player resurrection within the fiction of the game.”

You know what this means? This means that the player’s “SOUL” is his LATENCY.

MANNIMARCO is the leader of the Worm Cult who controls the Mages Guild University outside the Imperial city.

• “Mannimarco, King of Worms has been enlisted to provide the Imperial armies with a constant supply of reanimated corpses. Unknown to the Imperials, Mannimarco is secretly conspiring with Molag Bal to assist the prince’s plot to dominate Tamriel. Mannimarco is a pivotal figure throughout Elder Scrolls lore, and TES:O will give players the chance to confront him at the height of his power.”

“Man” = Mankind, “Ni” = Nirn, the Elder Scrolls Planet, “Marco” = Marco Polo, a game of Hide and Seek Played inside a Pool.

Mannimarco the Necromancer is playing Marco Polo with the Souls of Mankind on planet Nirn!

I'm probably too tired to understand what you just wrote. So.. uh, what am I supposed to say in this thread to contribute something?

These names where created long ago during daggerfall I believe you are looking far too much into things.

First choose a Daedra or Divinity. Like Sanguine who is Daedra Or Zenithar who is Divinity.

Now divide their name into syllables.

Example: San guine and ZenIth ar.

Alternatively you may choose WHERE to Divide the word.

Example: San gui ne and Zen It har.

Now you must choose words with the same letters or similar spelling to match Individual Letters or your Syllables. The words you Choose must form a coherent sentence AND Apply to the LORE of the Character.



Sentence Example:

SANGUINE

Since Angles Never Guess, yoU and I shall Never Eat the fruits of the divines.

Syllable Example:

ZENITHAR

ZEN = Zen Master. IT = Internet Tech. HAR = What Pirates Say.

The Zen Master Internet Technician always Says HAR.
