How to talk like a Child of Ether.

By Reverend Kinesys.

I've got something of a confession to make. I've always wanted to be a Mad Scientist. When I was very young, both of my parents worked in a restaurant that my grandparents owned. I spent a lot of time there in the large storage space upstairs playing with the gigantic coffee urns. Because of their size and proliferation of knobs, switches,spigots,and other unusual paraphernalia it was easy for me to surround my self with them and pretend to be doing mad scientist things. my parent thought it was cute...until i re-animated the cat.

How to use this list:

It works not unlike a Chinese menu of old. Pick a prefix, pick a noun, pick as many adjectives as seem appropriate, and pick a suffix. If you don't know what a word or cluster of words mean,don't sweat it. Of all the traditions the Etheric mages have the most to gain by being able to talk a good line of bullshit. Besides, Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.
