Ohhh that's so cool, I am sadly not into LotR at all, so I wouldn't know. What are your name plans?
I feel you, I've thrown Xail through so many fandoms too, I call her my Canary because she's always what I default to if I'm testing out a fandom or a community. That makes sense! I think I saw you talking about Opelia in a HG setting once, so that was probably why I thought she came from there. How different would you say present day Opelia is from her other variants? Does she vary a lot, or is there usually something that connects them all?

That's surprising! I would have taken you for a Tolkien fan, but that is understandable! LotR isn't for everyone, and the online game is certainly very niche.

Plans in terms of baby names? Xail is "canonically" supposed to have a little girl name Newt (although she's never really come into play ever, she's kind of just a brain baby and a concept that I've always been fond of, I've been waiting for the right chance to introduce her as a result). Since Xailah's name has virtually no meaning, she would want her child to have a name that means something, hence "Newt"... which was derived from salamanders, which are actually Xailah's favorite animal because of their adaptive qualities. The name also has a great amount of significance in Xailah's canon story (off site) because Newt is supposed to be the start of a new beginning for Xailah's species.

OOCly Newt is also pays homage to the Alien franchise, since I'm a glutton for it and references to other media. And the name itself is just cute in my opinion.
