Genera for various folklore

[kettek]

There should be a genera to encapsulate a lot of disparate folklore/spirit types. Creatures of mythology, etc.

Some ideas are:

• Kappa
• Wendigo-derived species (high health regeneration, consumed food fast)
• Gnome-likes
• Nordic-style Trolls

This particular Genera could be spread far and wide, and they are thought of as the manifestation of fears, beliefs, and otherwise. Actual linking of them one to another would likely be undefined or not even what they are. Rather, they are simply different species that are seen to be of a common group?

Probably this group would have a higher relationship with the Animus faction, per default, and a lower relationship with most other factions.

Thinking of names, it should probably be something like "the lost". Perditus is adj for lost in Latin, but that feels a bit formal. Chamenos is Greek. Hmm... Nomos is dweller in ancient greek, perhaps something like Anomos? A bit too close to Animus, I think. Furia is fiend in Latin, which might work. Daimones might work, which is Greek.

Also Thiria, which is Greek for beasts. Might be worthwhile to look for ancient words from other cultures to be inspired by.
