Lore Discrepancy List
Image

As you well know, Mizahar is choke full of lore. The site has been around for nearly ten years now and, naturally, parts of the lore have been updated or changed over time. We've progressed a lot over the years yet, being that we are all human, the Staff are not always able to stay on top of the many changes or potential discrepancies within the wiki. Therefore, we'd greatly appreciate it if you could please alert us to any conflicting, outdated or erroneous wiki information you come across so we might be able to edit it accordingly. To do so, simply submit a brief reply. I will update this to keep a running list of what's been updated.

Lore to be edited: Akvin Kultra's page has the old infobox instead of the new standard for Gods, I know you know, Anti said to put it up as a reminder anyway. He also has category listed as God and not Gods, so it isn't linked properly.

Lore to be edited: 1) It states several times in the Taloban Army page that the minimum age to join is 16 years or older, except one line under the "Rekrut" section that says "[...]any Myrian above the age of twelve can be a Rekrut[...]".
This bit should be edited to conform with the rest.
2) The Myrian race lore page doesnt' say anything about a Myrian language apart from the one used for hunting and battle, using bird calls and animalistic sounds. However I've seen quite a few CS having "Myrian language" as part of their starting package, and not only the "hunting" language. As well, some other pages of the lore (Morning Bird Clan, Languages list) mention Myrian as an existing language.
Maybe a small note should be added to the race lore about it? Or should it be scraped away completely and the Myrians left without their own language?

Hey guys! Just wanted to drop in to let you know that I am back and actively working on this once more. It's been wonderful seeing fresh additions to the wiki... now to keep the older stuff fresh and up to date!

Savis - I don't believe I'll be able to make sufficient edits to the Eth page in regards to this since that has never actually been written. I'm using this thread as a means to draw attention to erroneous, outdated or contradicting material that anyone might come across. Write-ups like that are more in-depth and will require going through the proper lore development process, I believe (and I seem to recall there had been mention of a rewrite having been in process years ago but, obviously, it was never finalised). I will double check and if the information is out there but simply never got tacked on to the race page then I will happily collate it and pop it on there :) I hope you understand <3
The proper information has been found and I am currently in the process of adding it x

EDIT: Ixtli, in regards to the language, I took it as Myrian being an old language that most from Taloba would know/be familiar with and that the more traditional clans (and members) would use with greater frequency and reverence. Common appears to be the more prevalent language used amongst the race, with that Bird Calls/Military language being similar in a way to Ekeldi use amongst the Syliran Knights and a style of language unique to those who serve/d in the Taloban Army. I will clarify this since I, too, have seen a lot of it pop up on CSes when it doesn't really belong. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Mauriel - I haven't forgotten about Akvin! I managed to properly categorise him; just mulling over some things before making drastic changes to his page. I appreciate your patience <3

If any of you have the desire to help update the lore yourself, or have extra time and a wiki account, come post here! There is a lot to do and a lot of outdated wiki info.
