Oiapaienei

[Matthew Haldeman-Time]

Not sure if this deserves its own page or just belongs in the glossary, or on the Ilaeia page under culture.

ITL 24.12

“Do you know of the old Ilaeian legend of the oiapaienei? The beautiful young women with flawless faces and deadly hearts, who draw men between their thighs and then kill them for pleasure?”

Hmm.  I'm kind of out of it right now, but I'd say it should go in both the glossary and in the Ilaeia page under "Mythology"--which I'll go right now and change to "Legends and Mythology" so that "oiapaienei" can be added to the list, too, along with the already-there "Iaseouluiao" (sorceress of the stars). 

Maybe we can ask Rhia to make a "oiapaienei" page since she made the stand-alone "shiefa" page.

Rhia?

I could definitely do that although, to be fair, I didn't create the "shiefa" page -- it was created, there was just nothing on it. I can make an "oiapaienei" page, if ya'll like, although... does it need a whole page? "Shiefa" has a lot of significance, since it comes up repeatedly, but I think the "oiapaienei" is only mentioned once.

I'm a dork, so I'm almost tempted to make a bestiary page for mythical creatures from different countries.

Eh. ::shrug::  I consider adding the majority of the info as creating the page, for all intents and purposes.  Otherwise it's just emptiness with formatting (or no formatting, sometimes).

There's some significance there you can add, if you think it'll look too empty.  Maybe something about Hitari being compared to "oiapaienei" by Orinakin under a "Trivia" sub-heading?

Awesome, awesome, AWESOME idea.  Also, I love the idea of a page on the Wiki with the word "Bestiary" in it.  New favorite word!

Why would you encourage me?

-Matthew

[LilacMajesty]

Ohhhh  We are in for it now.   Our Fearless Leader is going to be making up all kinds of mythical beasts as fast as his brain can concieve of them.

[Rhia]

Why would you encourage me?

-Matthew

I think the real question, sir, is... why wouldn't I?

[Rhia]

Incidentally, was that a yay or nay vote on a mythical creatures type page?

[JaeFire]

I vote yea!  ("The Bestiary" = Awesome Title Made of Awesome.)
