Just out of curiosity, how do you pronounce "Celwynvian?" I've stuck to my usual method of using a soft 'c' sound at the beginning of elven words, but thought I'd see if anyone else is doing differently.
Just out of curiosity, how do you pronounce "Celwynvian?" I've stuck to my usual method of using a soft 'c' sound at the beginning of elven words, but thought I'd see if anyone else is doing differently.The word looks quite Welsh to me, so I went with a hard C.
I thought the same. It reminded me of a similar name used for a lost dwarven city in a Dungeon adventure...the name of the adventure escapes me at the moment...but I went with the soft 'c' for continuity, since I haven't used it for elvish words in the past.
Cellwynvian is actually one of several elements in Golarion from my hombebrew world... I made the word up decades ago, and if there's any Welsh influence to it, that influence is subliminal.
The pronounciation is, complete with soft-C:
sell-WIN-vee-inn
Looks like I hit it right on the nose then, complete with emphasis. Thanks, James.
