Barking Vargr

I was messing around with the Deneb sector this year, and found out that their vargr language isn't the same as that used in the Marches or Corridor.

The most familiar to me is Gvegh, of course. Word gen is published in CT and MT for Gvegh. It runs from the Marches into Gvurrdon.

Apparently, Corridor and sectors 'above' it use Vuakedh. I found word gen tables for it, I think in the Missouri Archives. It is significantly different, but plainly still vargr.

I've heard that there's one called Gvaeg or something, but I don't know where that one's from, and I don't know if there's a word gen table for it.

Anyway...

The one in Tuglikki and Deneb is called Aekhu. And more significantly, by running analyses on the world names there, I noticed specifically that the vargr words there do have different word formation rules.

So I reverse engineered tables for Aekhu. I don't know how correct they are, but they will generate the world names at more or less correct probabilities.

But if someone has the 'real' tables for Aekhu, I'd like to see them.

Mine can be used with my random word-gen page:

If you'd be willing to send me your tables (any of the usual email addresses will do), I'd be happy to reformat them for my WordGen program and add them to the download...
