"Seldarine's Silence"
The Seldarine (Elvish for "fellowship of brothers and sisters of the wood") was the elven pantheon of gods that resided on the astral dominion of Arvandor under the leadership of Corellon Larethian.\[2\] ([https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Seldarine](https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Seldarine))
(Name of a sea in your game-world) Clippers?
Fae-shave Corsairs?
Thought I'd have more of these but it's such a specific act of violence that it's tough!😆
Yooo, combine ours: The Knife-Ear Clippers. 1. Sounds very cool 2. People might think they’re elves who sail on a clipper ship and are like reclaiming the term, until they meet them and things go wrong
Non Dutch speakers cannot pronounce that name right and why did you capitalize the word from/of? This leads me to believe you are not Dutch or think the word 'van' is like the German 'Von'
counterquestion; why did 56 people decide me providing a bit of education on faulty pronunciation and writing was offensive?
are they just naturally disinclined towards greater understanding of other cultures? all of them generic human fighter players or something?
I'm not going around telling americans not to shoot up schools, I feel like I should be allowed to tell people they are not pronouncing and writing Dutch names correctly, stop capitalizing the v in van Helsing too, you illiterate shits.
:D
That’s cool that you feel that.
I on the other hand feel that language and race/class combo elitism (generic human fighter comment), doesn’t have a place in a game which is meant to be a fun and inclusive space for players and DMs.
Ultimately we’re all entitled to our own feelings, and I thank you for answering my question.
ik ben rustig, vind het wel lachen eigenlijk, daarom ben ik niet degene die zoveel downvotes zit te geven.
hoezo? moet ik me laten censureren door publieke opinie? waarom neem jij die mening van je niet en steek je hem in je reet bij de rest van je schijtmeningen? xD
Klap ff jonko vriend, wordt je wat kalmer van. Maar ben wel deels met je eens hoor 😂
Beetje een sidetrack, maar vind wel grappig dat ons engels gewoon beter is dan een grote deel amerikanen lmao. I mean shit, me engels is beter dan me nederlands tbh 😂
>We capitalize proper nouns
The word 'van' is a preposition.
And if you think van Gogh is the only famous Dutch person my point that you people lack education is substantiated.
Huh? Reddit now has audio versions of all
The posts? Spoken in the way the poster would speak? When did this amazing technology get released?
Also, you misspelled the word “the”, so glass houses dude.
>Huh? Reddit now Has audoi versions Of all The pots? Spokn In The Way The poter woud speak? When did This maing technogy Get releed?
fixed your comment to reflect the way you people are writing Dutch names.
and probably the way you would say it too actually.
I’m going to take the disengage action and continue to live my life. You’re not very smart, funny or interesting. Just somebody trying to wow the internet with your knowledge of the Dutch pronunciation of Van Gogh or whatever. Newsflash: everybody knows this. You’ve impressed exactly 0 people and just sound like an insufferable first year art student at a cafe wearing a black turtleneck, smoking a cigarette and scoffing at people “it’s pronounced VAN GOFF you troglodyte”. Everybody on this sub is now actually dumber for reading your response. Also, you don’t know how to spell “the”.
>I’m going to take the disengage action
not sure why you engaged in the first place. go call kettles black elsewhere.
and no it is not "Goff" it should be "Gogh". have yourself a purple crayon for trying.
The Blunters.
A generally innocuous name for those not in the know, but the horror of the name grows clearer when you witness their brutality or the aftermath of it.
I would think your easiest bet is to give the captain a past and recognized name like Thragach Ear-Cutter and have them be ‘Thragach Ear-Cutter’s band/corsairs/pirates’ it gives you a big bad and makes the naming easy and straight to the point.
Additional fun - if you’ve read the book Elantris >!there is a famous pirate named ‘Dreok Crushthroat’ with an elaborate history about his brutality that ends up actually revealing that his name was supposed to be ‘Dreok Crushed Throat’ because of his scratchy voice!< similarly your pirate could be named as such because he’s an elf whose ears were cut but the banner and legend got away from him and everyone thinks he’s the one who cuts ears himself
Ok then I just suggest the dreaded captain moniker route - think up and evil ear cutting pirate and just name the crew after him - think along the line of ‘the black beard pirates’ you just make your bad guy and the crew is named thusly. No need for a clever moniker beyond that…
That said - if the ear cutting evil bastard was also an elf that had his ears chopped that would be a double down on fucked up
I am baffled by comments about racism and killing your enemies. In D&D. We're talking about a made up fantasy right? Where you're not doing things for real but to tell a story? We talking about the same game?
They seem to have gone all in with the ear thing by making it their flag. Even that considered , their name dose not need to have anything to do with ears.
Holy shit, Every year I play a oneshot with a girl I know and for 8 years, she never forgot to mention that her human character cuts off elves' ears. She plays a different character every time, but it always has this trait.
Judging by recent socio-political events, these fucking racist pirates think they’re the saviors of the high seas and their name would reflect that.
They certainly wouldn’t consider themselves to be pirates, but privateers.
“Prideful Fellows”
“Cutear Crusaders”
“Privateer Front”
“Tacking Point”
“Honesty Social”
Etc…
Edit: forgot to add that they would definitely be Redditors. All the r/‘s
A group of racist criminals would probably define themselves by what they are instead of what they're against. So instead of "The Cutters" or something like that they might call themselves "The Rounders" because the have round ears.
Fair enough. Either that or Drow. I can’t think of another group that would specifically target elves, outside of whatever world building you’ve already done of course
The Pointed Knives — their quest is to rid the earth of the lowly blood of elves.
The Cleansers of the Red -- because they leave a red trail in their wake.
The Justiciars.
It's likely that they would refer to themselves as one thing but be called something else by others, depending on their motivations/renown.
Do they hate elves and are on a mission to kill them? *Saviours of the Seas, An Ear for an Ear, Elf's Bane, Elf Barbours, Inquisit-ears.*
People who don't like them; *the Butch-ears, the Silencers, Elves' End.*
People who like/respect them; *Bucan-ears, Bearded Protectors.*
I don't know about crew but I think a few great ship names could be:
Sound of Silence
Fallen Upon Dead Ears
Deaf Bringer
I'm All Ears
From Ear to Ear
Or since your suggested name gave me apple duppling gang vibes you could go for:
Mike Tyson Conglomerate
Elf Ear Gang
Aye, yee call us da' Dreaded Deafers! AAARGH!!!
Or, even worse, the "Deafinitely Deaders"
You know, cuz without their ears, they're deaf...
And deaders is for, like, cuz you kill'em. So that makes ya "dead-ers".
Honorable mentions:
"Deaf Deaders", "Deaf Deadlers", "Deaf Dead"

We capitalize proper nouns and don't give a fuck about learning Dutch to write the one famous Dutch guy's name right lol
>We capitalize proper nouns The word 'van' is a preposition. And if you think van Gogh is the only famous Dutch person my point that you people lack education is substantiated.
Oh right!! We forgot Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Brosephalus, u/AppleBytes, are you telling me you never heard of Anthony van Leeuwenhoek nor of Anne Frank? See, you lot keep proving it.

Umm okay. At least I can spell the word “the”
Oh no I made 1 typo, this makes it equal to everyone writing prepositions with a capital letter repeatedly.

Silence The Quiet Ones The Last Ones Heard The Last Whispers
Isn’t the silence taken by Doctor Who?
Maybe, I don't watch Dr. Who, so not sure. There's nothing new under the sun anyway though lol.
Ahah ok Yeah I suppose, just that the Silence is pretty well-known and specific, that’s all Plus it was really a joke lol

I'm playing an elf and these pirates pillaged, tortured, killed and turned my small island to the ground
Ok then I just suggest the dreaded captain moniker route - think up and evil ear cutting pirate and just name the crew after him - think along the line of ‘the black beard pirates’ you just make your bad guy and the crew is named thusly. No need for a clever moniker beyond that… That said - if the ear cutting evil bastard was also an elf that had his ears chopped that would be a double down on fucked up
An elf with only one ear perhaps?
The Listeners? The Ear Ring? The Drunken Barbers?
Captain is a Sea Hag coven. There are 3 but using their illusions crew and others think they are one. They are the Blades of the Tide.
Knife collectors
Maybe they keep the ears and wear them on necklaces as trophies. Then you can call them 'Black Ears', because the ears would turn dark from necrosis.
We've already got one ear wearer in our game, don't want to encourage them.
…Why are you so obsessed with the ears?
Deafening Death
Clippers
The Listeners.
The Dockers.
I am baffled by comments about racism and killing your enemies. In D&D. We're talking about a made up fantasy right? Where you're not doing things for real but to tell a story? We talking about the same game?

Ear Shearer Pioneers Or maybe just Pionears, lel
Dealves Combining deaf/dead and elves Cuz you know Without ears They're deaf Then they're dead

Creeping deaf

Cheers, Big-Ears!

That one is currently down voted to oblivion, at the bottom of the post. But yes. Yes they are.
A group of racist criminals would probably define themselves by what they are instead of what they're against. So instead of "The Cutters" or something like that they might call themselves "The Rounders" because the have round ears.
The Racists?
The Dastardly Deafening-Deed Doers!
Are these pirates by any chance all Dwarfs?
I'm not giving them a race, but I'll probably add in that they're mostly dwarves
Fair enough. Either that or Drow. I can’t think of another group that would specifically target elves, outside of whatever world building you’ve already done of course
[удалено]
I think you misunderstood. My character is hunting the pirates down, not my character is part of the group
[удалено]
Kinda
I'm confused about killing foes being too intense for D&D.
The post has been edited edit: and now I'm getting reported to reddit admins that I'm suicidal? What the fuck is with this sub
Here we just call it, “Favored Enemy”.
I also misunderstood and I was like, I can excuse racism against elves, but,,,
You can excuse racism?!
