Talk:Names

Some of these names seem to be duplicates, or fine distinctions that we may not want. (I've removed Palfrey since that is really just a riding horse). Others require discussion:

• Lizard Man / Saurime
  • Aren't Saurime lizard-men? Is there a separate Lizard Man race?
  • Should we add the Terranovan names that are available?
    • In Terranova there are several sub-groups of Saurian that map to the colours of dragons. The common or Red Saurian is the same as the Alusian Saurime.
• Shapechangers
  • Is this all one GTN? Or are Shaprechanger-Bear and Shaprechanger-Wolf separate GTNs?
• Why are Nymph and Satyr Fantastical rather than Humanoid, like Sylph?
• Undead
  • Mummy is known? Mummy is lesser?
  • Nightgaunts are Greater (they drain)
  • Litch? Lich? These are known?
• If all Sharks are Shark, why are Manta Ray and Stingray separate?
• Dolphin / Porpoise
  • technically different Families of small toothed whales (Delphinidae vs. Phocoenidae) the two words are used somewhat interchangeably.
• Should there be a generic Fish?
  • Basic thing you hook and eat... and that doesn't try to eat you.
• Aren't Pigeons and Doves the same thing?
• If a Spider can be an Insect why is Scorpion in Land Animals?

I've used [space]{I} to indicate 'on initial list'. This format should make it easy to put into a table or csv or whatever later.

I've marked a couple with {q} for query

Are Black Dragons the 'Dragon' on the PG list, or a new colour?
