Character Name
Nylildor
Nylildor Nylildor combines lunar silver with the "-dor" guardian-of-land suffix — a guardian whose domain is the spaces where moonlight just barely reaches. A cave-warden, a keeper of underground temples, or a night-ranger who patrols the boundary between the lit world and the dark. The diminutive "-il-" gives the lunar quality a fragile, precise quality, suggesting a guardian who works in subtle ways rather than overwhelming force.
