Character Name
Lyriais
Lyriais Lyriais is the most purely musical of the "Lyr-" names — "Lyri-" plus the vocal "-ais" ending creates a name that sounds like its own description. A character named Lyriais would live and breathe music: a bardic prodigy, a siren whose songs are genuinely magical, or a court musician whose influence over the kingdom's affairs is disproportionate to her official station because every decision-maker comes to her for counsel in the guise of requesting a song.
