Caethos - Kay-thohs (As in Mythos)
Ithaca - Same as the gun manufacturer, Ith-ah-ka
Plathine - Plah-theen
Schezalle - Schuh-zayle
This is the kind of thing that makes the Gods think we're fools.

Caethos- Half-Elf Red Knight Cleric
Ithaca- Wild Elf Warrior
Plathine- Human Pirate
Schezalle- Drow Executioner Rogue

I was pronouncing Caethos right, yay me.


There is outright no one in my account who has a name that could be interperted differently than it is.

Maybe Risni? Riss nee.

All of mine have been pretty easy to figure out phonetically. However, two that I hear mispronounced when talking in person with fellow FK-ers:

Kinal: Kin-All
Shauselm: Shozz-Elm

A character I haven't logged onto in probably 8 years is Dedal, which I always pronounced "Day-Dall", but it was funny hearing people say "Dead-Ell"
Technically, we're all half centaur.
