What should the third faction homeworld be called?

Aenea (or a corruption thereof)
Aetheria
Alyssia
asphodelia
Artemus

But the leviathan was not evil he was simply powerful and dangerous, and very large, which is why i suggested the name, because the ship is powerful, somewhat dangerous, and very large.

Maybe not in Greek mythology, but in fiction on the other hand...

Well i kind of figured that we were basing this on Greek mythology and not fiction. Why would we base this name on fiction and everything else on Greek mythology? You've heard it from me before but the Cthonians are the entire basis of Greek mythology and the scions are their fans.

Who cares if it sounds evil? They will know that it is not evil when they play/read the story. And the leviathan is also a scion type name (titan, matriarch). I read ALOT and a name may paint that picture but it disappears once the story is read.

And yet you're still expecting everyone who plays the mod to read the story...
I find that if I don't have a signature, some people disregard the last couple of lines of a long post.

Titan I understand, but a matriarch is just the head elephant of a herd and nothing to do with the point you are trying to make,

the fact is, like it or lump it, leviathon has become synonimous with monsters.

I only read the story of FE properly on my last time through. I have a tendency to skip through briefings and debriefings, which means I often miss out on big chunks of story. When I grew out of this I realised just how much I was missing out on.

And Matriarch just meane 'female leader'.

So we only get one chance can we take it
And we only get one life can't exchange it
Can we hold on to what we have don't replace it
The age of innocence is fading..... Like an old dream

The votes are going, some of the names in the pole look pretty good.
I chose Argo II but it's tied for second ATM.

Leviathan would be an awesome name! None is so fierce that dare stir him up...
