Language

Rather than attempt to engage in amateur language-crafting, I took the lazy route and simply correlated the languages to real life human languages. Below are the correlations of the major five:

• Common: This is literally just Latin. The reason being that millennia ago, a tear between worlds opened and several Romans from Gaul fell through. All humans are the descendants of these 500 individuals. The other languages are not 1:1 corollaries, but for sake of GM sanity get their place names largely from the four languages below.
• Elvish: Welsh
• Dwarven: German
• Gnomish: English
• Celestial: Greek
