Splendoro Slang

Introduction

This primer is about splendoro terminology used among themselves during their golden age. It describes their terms for the magic abilities used and mythical references.
Being a relatively recent secret code for the specific context of quickly informing future magicians, there is not much to write about this language as of yet.

General Code

Naming

Splendoro usually chose their names to reflect their innate talent or were nicknamed after a trait they represent.
An elemental spellcaster would often have a courtesy name related to the element in question.
Odd cases such as Rainbow Panic being a firecracker expert could be traced back to something that was obvious in hindsight.
In this case, Rainbow Panic was nicknamed such due to her neon colored clothes.
