Revision as of 03:32, 2 July 2011

These are terms used in the TwistedFates series that one must become familiar with. Some are simple abbreviations, and others are more complex terms.


A

  • Auronian: Someone who was born in Auron.

B

C

  • Chosen: See main entry.
  • Corrupted: One who has been completely overtaken by and going though the sixth and seventh phases of "The Sickness". At this point, there is a notch in the person's ear, and the all Naginata markings-- save for the ring around the neck-- are present. Only when the corruption is completed by an official Naginata does the ring around the neck appear.

D

  • Dragon: A corrupted Jagaian. See "Corrupted".
  • Dry Season: The Summer and Fall Seasons are collectively referred to as "Dry Season". During this time, the water separating the districts become shallow enough to cross (as if the island slightly lifted itself out the water), and the rivers run a lot smoother than they usually do. It still rains during dry season, but not as much.

E

F

  • Feral: A corrupted Saphanian. See "Corrupted".

G

H

  • Hunters: A term applied to Rebels and Slayers, collectively. See main article.

I

  • Infected: Someone who is currently going through phases 1-5 of "The Sickness". At this point, there is no notch in the victim's ears, but the markings do eventually resemble that of a Naginata's.

J

K

L

M

N

  • Naginata: A term applied to Oniyan members of the Naginata clan. See main article.

O

P

  • pal: The abbreviation for the Serian Currency, the Pearl.

Q

R

S

  • Scar: (scarred); Previously infected are physically scarred; their bodies are still elongated. Psychologically, they are more subject to go through the last 3 of the seven stages of corruption, better known there as "The Sickness", unless they are treated.
  • Sickness, The: See full article .
  • Siren: A corrupted Silvanian. See "Corrupted".

T

U

V

  • Venom: A biproduct that results when the parasitic cells multiply. Usually sent to the venom-sac (attached to the esophagus) through the Infected/Corrupted's bloodstream. When the ratio of parasite blood:venom reaches a certain level, side effects such as uncontrollable rage and sickness surface.

W

  • Wet Season: Name for the Spring and Winter seasons, collectively. During this time, the water separating the Districts can only be crossed with a vessel (boat, jetski, etc.), unless someone's a really good swimmer. During this time, it rains quite often, in some places more than others.
