It is known that proper | It is known that proper [[Tsol'teth]] names were separated by apostrophes – as is common with all Tsol subraces – while the names of other creatures were hyphenated. For example: If ''"Caril Racer"'' (or alternatively, ''"Racer of the Caril"'') were to be used as a Tsol’teth name, it would be spelled ''"Caril'vakha."'' On the other hand, if a [[hobgoblin]] or other such slave were to go by this title, it would be spelled ''"Caril-vakha."'' Apostrophic notation was reserved solely for the Tsol'teth; when referring to anything else, such as places, events, or things, the hyphens of slave notation are used. | ||
Tsol'teth names never had a prefix before them denoting degrees of power, such as "Mighty" or "Great." It can be assumed that such things were taken as granted in Underrealm society. | |||
