 [[:species:elysian|Elysians]] generally have Greek, Latin, or Hebrew names (keeping lingual corruption over centuries of use in mind). Among [[species:patricians]] the given name always ends in -el, -al, -il, or -ul (for example Nariel, Sariel, Karael, Israfil, Raguel, or Mizial). Patricians almost always maintain their family surname, even if they change their given name. Among [[species:caelisolan]] and [[species:plebeian]] specimens this rule is not so absolute, though it is still an overwhelming tendency. Other occasionally seen variations among Plebeians and Caelisolans are -phon, -an, -as, and -os (for example Sandalphon, Israphon, Aetian, or Kallios). Not all Plebeians (or ex-Plebeians) have a last name of their own, though many adopt one, or marry into one. [[:species:elysian|Elysians]] generally have Greek, Latin, or Hebrew names (keeping lingual corruption over centuries of use in mind).

 Over the past thirty-five years, Elysia has fought four wars against the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]], and lost all four of them. These defeats involved retreating from their (supposed) home world, a loss of decades of colonization, and the onset of a painful famine that devastated the Plebeian population for years. Even among Patricians, there are very few individuals alive who were not affected negatively by the wars with Yamatai. Though a recent treaty has cemented the two nations as allies, it should be a rare Elysian who doesn't have some history involved with the conflicts between the two. It is recommended that new characters not have an extensive //military// history, though even those who were civilians - or children - during the wars would still have suffered greatly from the fighting. Over the past thirty-five years, Elysia has fought four wars against the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]], and lost all four of them.
