Hello, all you brilliant, scholarly people!
I was browsing through my WIP today when I was abruptly smacked in the face by this: INSERT NAME HERE.
So…I came here! If anybody's interested, I'm open to name suggestions! ;)
Here is the description of my delightfully devilish denizen of the deeps; in hopes that someone can come up with something more creative than "female water demon"! :salute: Good luck!
"Translucent tentacles replace its hair, looking like a the Gorgon Medusa with tentacles instead of snakes, and two semitransparent finlike crests grace its head at asymmetrical angles. Very fell yellow reptilian eyes bordered with thick feminine lashes burn in its thin white face. Its limpid, scaly feminine torso terminates into the thick, speckled musculature of a massive eel, and its teeth are as long as a finger and sharp as ice, looking like semimelted icicles hanging from a bloodred roof. Twin elapid fangs dripping tetraodotoxin hang over its pale lips. Its fingers are slender and clever, and are tipped in long, sharp nails like a cat's. It is very large, uncoiled fully it is about the length of a football field. It weighs one and a half tons."
Thanks! :dieshappy:

Elquen (since the creature might be seen as the queen of eels, or eelqueen)?

I find that Sanskrit is excellent for evil-sounding names.

Here's the translator/dictionary I use:
http://spokensanskrit.de/

And here are some possibilities:
Ilati
Saritvat (ocean)
Leliha (snake)
Raurava (monster)
Raksas (evil being or monster)

Then again, you might want to go with Jonathan's super-cool name. :D
