Addis....where did you find the vocab for this? internet search..?
I really dont mean to be rude, but Latin has a differnt word structure to English, and also the endings will change depending on the declension, and or irregular verb endings, and also, of course, the tense. And, yes, I'm a Latin student :P *and proud* :P For example: Flame Strike: Flamma Offendo Flame Strike would be better written, as "Strike of Fire" or "Strike of Flame" Therefore, this is in the Genetive case ( "of" something ) So, Instead of using "Flamma", which is the Nominative, you need to use "Flammae" , which is in the Genetive. Offendo actually means to Displease. And, yes, I'm sitting here with my Latin textbook :P So, you actually said with Flamma Offendo: "Flame displeased" The Latin for "strike" is the same as to hit, and or, attack. The Latin for "attack" is "Impetus" Impetus is in the 2nd declension, and is the "subject" of the sentance, i.e. it is "doing" the action, therefore would be placed in the nominative case, and so would be "Impetus" in the normal form. The word order in latin, also means that instead of "strike of fire" its switched, to have the verb at the end of the phrase (endlessly confusing...) actually saying "of fire it strikes", but translated and thought of as "strike of fire/ fire strike" Final wording" Fire Strike: Flammae Impetus I'm sorry for correcting this, but, ahh well, theres got to be some moody idiot who does it:P Please don't eat me *cowers behind the latin textbook*

They didn't have Brass.
Althought: Bronze Dragon: Aeneus Draci Copper Ore Dragon: Orichalum Draci Thats the closest you'll get to Brass, honey.

Ok, found it on a google search while trying to translate Libri Fatali (which means?). Since i don't know Latin, I thought it was a accurate one. Sorry folks, might as well ask the latin student for translations lol.
I was going to take a class in Latin but it filled up to fast...

Well, at a first glance, Libri Fatali, either has something to do with
Freedom, books or death.. I havent really got time to look into it now, as that was just off the top of my head, but I'll try to get it translated for tonight, if I can find 20 secs in which I have free. Brass, I'll need to know wether the case of Evil Impailer is someone who slays evil, ie. "imapails evil" or someone who is evil, and impails people, ie. "the evil impailer" Red. I'll get to you :P As I said up there, my brains kinda a bit full today :P

I think it means something like "Free to die". I looked up the lyrics and it said "Destined Children". Doesn't make much sence.
