List of Curses

Back to Language

**Shiganii (Plural Shiganae)** - It means children of Voyd. The word is now used to insult traitors, players, and any evil person really. (Just like how the word bástard is used.)

**Molak** - In Wyldish, it means immense wild power, courtesy of the creatures worshiping the Wylders, believing that they are the raw forces of nature. But after so many years, it has somehow been twisted around and used as a degrading term for anyone with Wylder blood.

**Thinbloods** - Descendants of Wylders have thick silver blood that is almost like liquid metal. In fact, the more pure the Wylder blood, the thicker it is. In fact, the blood can actually be molded into tools, weapons, armors...... After a bit of enchanting and rare ingredients. There is actually a black market for Wylder blood, as it has powerful magical properties. The term Thinbloods is used by those demiwylders who think themselves high and mighty, being more powerful than others. It is kind of like a racial slur for any creature. The Wanderbirds have particularly thin blood, so they take the insult worse than most, and saying the word to their face will end in a fight most certainly.

**Mudra** - Mudra started out as a simple courtesan, but realised she could be so much more when the leader of the human clan fell for her, promising to even defy the Wylders if she wanted it. She used that to her advantage, traversing over the different courts and territories, gaining the trust and even the power of many kings and queens, rulers and leaders. A whispered word there and a seductive promise there had caused conflicts and turmoil among the different species and sects, eventually causing tensions that almost led to war. Legend has it that one of the human princes had managed to alert the priests and priestesses of the Wylders before all this happened and Arbitor descended from the sky to swiftly deal with the incident, keeping the peace of the land once again. The tale is told in a ballad called "Ode to Mudra". A clever work of satire with inapprppiate themes and language for children. Nevertheless, the dirty song appealed to the general public and was often sang in taverns and even by wandering minstrels. It was also because of the song's lyrics that they started using Mudra as a synonym to whore. Eventually it developed into something more inappropriate and sexual, usually spoken as Murk or Murd when used in this situation, depending on the accent. (Akin to the F-word) The northerners speak it as Murk usually, while the southern Wylder accent pronounces it as Murd.

**Atama (a-t-ā-m-a)** - In Wyldish it translates to "you" but in a much more degrading form. There are multiple "yous" that Wyldish uses, and this is one of the most condescending ones. This is mostly used to address individuals doing undesirable things or, simply put, a way of addressing someone you believe deserves to wash or kiss your feet. Ex: "Atama, come here and clean up this mess!"

**Kal (k-ā-l)** - In Wyldish this simply means crap. There may be stories behind this word, but all of them are too muddled together to ever form a full story. Ex: A beast leaps at a Satyr suddenly. The Wylder notices the beast and cries out, "Kal!"

Tef naeruvik (te-f n-ae-rū-vik) - This phrase does not have a solid meaning, but is mostly used to address those that most see as disabled or undesirable. It's a derogatory term that can be translated as "Mistake of Wyld". Ex: "Do not touch that tef naeruvik!"
