-Searches it-
-Likes the move-
-Searched definition-
1.
to cover with ice or glaciers.
2.
to affect by glacial action.
verb (used without object), gla·ci·at·ed, gla·ci·at·ing.
3.
to become frozen or covered with ice or glaciers.
Hmm. . . Glaciate. . . Gladiate. . .Glaciator? . . .Get it. . . Gladiator+Glaciate. . . .
The Glaciator of the Permafrost. . . .
I like that name. [:D] Would be quite satisfying for a character name. . . .
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Full Definition of GLADIATE
: shaped like a sword :
Origin of GLADIATE
New Latin gladiatus, from Latin gladius sword + -atus -ate
Gladiatus, and Gladiate, also good names for other future characters I have in mind. =.=
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Esoteric -> intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialized knowledge or interest.
Or in other words, mystery. Ah yes, shrouded in mystery. . . .
Combined with Terra -> It means the planet Earth, or in Latin, it turns out to mean "Land/Territory."
So combined, Esoterra (Esoterrae), would it not mean land and/or territory that is understood only by a small number of people
with specialized knowledge or interest? Again, some nice mystery. . . and a good name for a character possibly. [:D]
Thought up of a storyline, and ready to type out, and save. =.=
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All in all, new names/characters:
1. The Glaciator of the Permafrost (Or "The Glaciator" for short. :P)
2. Gladiatus/Gladiolus (Or "??? the Gladiate" if I'm describing it sword-like)
3. Esoterra (Nice combined definition as well)
As for the Esoterra, it could refer to as some kind of Earthen-based Avatar. (does not have to be human [:-] )
I'm thinking of a tribe/group/clan/bloodline/race hidden deep away in some forgotten land, in tough terrain only traversed
by people specialized in the skill/knowledge. Heh. As the land would be "hidden" and tricky, in which unsuspecting travelers are easily lost.
As more and more people from foreign lands moved in, settled, and sort of started to farm the land, and destroy it, basically almost all the natives died.
Except for a few scattered clans here and there, as they become fighters, representing their background. . .and recognize themselves as the Esoterra(ae)?
Hmm. . . might need a bit o' tweakin.'
Hehe. . .
Well, this could be my trio of new characters. The three elemental avatars. An avatar of Earth, Neutral, and Ice. . . . No, not avatars like from the movie. . .
"a manifestation of a deity or released soul in bodily form on earth; an incarnate divine teacher."
Hmmm. Kind of like a "higher" form or so. . . .As in representing something. Take Pokémon for example, Kyogre/Groudon. Would not Kyogre be an avatar of the seas and oceans,
as would Groudon be an avatar of the land? Hmm.
