Now I'm thoroughly confused. At the moment, I am staying consistent with Cyclops as the Actar denizen and Cyclopes as the plural race as you have suggested. What are we doing? Can you log on Achaea so we can talk? =D Asara 00:39, 19 June 2007 (GMT)

I'd log on if I wasn't still shrubbed. Thing is, "cyclops" is singular, "cyclopes" is plural, and "cyclopean" is possessive. ("The head cyclops commanded all of the other cyclopes to build a cyclopean monument.") With an entire race, the cyclops in Actar becomes an unnamed member of a larger race, rather than an individual with "Cyclops" as a proper name.

Never mind, the problem has been fixed. Asara 01:32, 19 June 2007 (GMT)
