Title: A cool name for a Triumvirate of three Elder Dragons?
Post by: antema on May 18, 2018, 05:47:56 PM
A really random cry for help.

Does anyone have any cool ideas for a name for a council of three Elder Dragons? In my GM campaign these three Elder Dragons are the most powerful dragons that still live, and they wield considerable power each. For this reason I think they deserve a cool name, but I can't for the life of me to come up with anything. Foreign languages might be cool, maybe.


Additional information: The dragons each have a different aspect to them. There is a dragon of secrets of all kinds, a Dragon of raw power & military might, and a sorcerer dragon. Alignment is not really clear to most in that world. They are feared and respected.

Thanks!

The Triumvirate is a pretty good name as is.

Not for dragons. It means "group of three men". The dragon version would be something like Tribudraconate.

Then call the The Troika, which has no species limitation. :)

If you add more Umlauts, that would be a great name for a Black Metal band. Also if you do a Google image search for Drei Drachen Rat, it does not disappoint.

Where would you put the Umlaut?  The I?  The A?  E?

Drëi Dråchen Rät?

When in doubt, you could go all pseudo-biblical, with something like Gog, Magog, and Gogmagog.
