Emprisaran Language

Emprisaran is a language connected to the sacred Druidic tongues. It is the language of Gods, preferred for religious writing across Pratasam, Areto, and Halikvar. It is also the language of naming and of trade across much of Samvara.
In Garadel, Emprisara is the language of the Pratasam trading group and is considered the default 'Samvaran' and 'druidic' language. Globally, Emprisaran is considered something of the "language of the earth", and is believed to be sometimes understood by wildlife. Naturalists far from Samvara who wish to appear worldly and mystical will sometimes write their works in Emprisaran. Many druidic schools also use Emprisaran to teach classes, as many traditional exercises and mantras use this tongue.
Emprisara is very closely related to two other major language groups: Ekedian and Dawaran.

Last names are entirely a matter of religion rather than language, but in Pratasam there are two kinds of surnames: aristocratic-priestly surnames for those in power, and designator surnames that show who or where you are pledged to. Upper Aristocrats typically have -var or -wara suffixes at their end of their last names. Here are a few examples:

• Koshavar (temple family)
• Mahtwara (tribe of riches)
• Baranvar (family of lightning)
• Alkovar (family of druids)
• Sharwara (comet clan)

Lower or mid aristocrats typically use surnames that demonstrate one's ancestor's title or position - descendants of the local lord of Banatev, for example, might use Banatevem (-em being the suffix for lord). A non-ruling local lord uses -bu (essentially, warrior of a master priest uses -hel or -kel; a common priest uses -kahm. A low or mid aristocrat who surpasses their ancestor's position in rank will create a new family name for them and their descendants.
Commoners use -bet or -la after a place name to designate their being loyal to a community or title. They use -arta after their lord's title to designate loyalty to a superior. An unbound low-born simply has no surname.

How to Generate New Emprisaran

Generally speaking, Emprisaran is a mashup of Sanskrit and Hebrew. While these are linguistically mulched beyond most recognition, you could probably dabble a bit in either for names or words, but be careful - both have very distinctive sounds and names. Walking around with Mister Abraham Bodhi Brahma as your archdruid name might be disorienting for some players.
