Jun 13, 2008 13:49:33 In my campaign the players will begin to uncover lore about an ancient, forgotten deity, who eventually recruits them to be his disciples to attempt to spread his doctrines to the world. The only problem is, I can't think of a name.

He is the God of time, and created the primordials as well as the current pantheon of Gods. He is a massive prismatic dragon that lives alone on a plane of his own creation, and, unlike the other gods, is omnipotent.

Since he is the God of time, I was leaning towards a name like Chronus or Tempus or the like. Anyone have any ideas?

Jun 13, 2008 15:05:59 Osiris. A god who died but managed to self-resurect and is making a comeback. He is LG though. I don't know if that works for your campaign.

Jun 13, 2008 16:02:01 For an ancient god I would turn to an ancient language: Sanskrit

From an english/sanskrit translator:

velaa - time
samaya - time
samayapaalaka - timekeeper

With a little portmanteu, you can produce: Velaaka

Lord only knows how you would pronounce it though...
