Scrolls - Origin of names

Conal's picture

Most of us are using the ingame slang and talk about Zel's and Dai's, but only few know where those names come from. Lineage in origin is a Korean game and therefore the names of all items, NCPs and monsters are originaly in Korean. Here a list of the orgiginal Names back from the Beta.
Please have also a read on this Lineage Comic.

Scroll of Enchant Armor - Zelgo Mer
Scroll of Enchant Weapon - Daiyen Fooels
Scroll of Identify - Kernord Wel
Scroll of Remove Curse - Pratyavayah
Scroll of Teleportation - Venzar Borgavve
Scroll of Destroy Armor - Juyed Awk Yacc
Scroll of Ressurection - Velox Neb
Scroll of Escape - Verr Yed Horre

Damn it's real nice to know,

Damn it's real nice to know, cause it's been so long ago since I played open Beta I knew they where from korean but couldnt remind the exact names. Now, people wont say "do you have a verr" or "dont forget get to bring a vel", people still say "I venzed" but wont use venz meaning for a scroll. Its quite funny how even if i used to play test I didnt remember all this.


Actually, the names come

Actually, the names come from NetHack (1987). The game that NC copied to create the base for Lineage.

They even had to change a few names (Shelob -> Arachnevil, Uruk Hai Shield -> Orcish Shield) because most of the game was just a copy (those two were taken from LOTR).

Lol I liked so much the name

Lol I liked so much the name Uruk Hai Shield. but well tower shield was the one for knights then people realized that elven shield was better. I remember my first character, i wanted to go to TI but had no money and a mage raised skeleton from above then turn undead them and let me get the money to pay for the boat, oh i miss this time. Even using the elf night view hehe
