WaterWalkers, WaterSeekers, WaterDwellers.

Three races. Do you think it would be slightly confusing, even if you knew their different attributes?

Don't know why I posted, bored in class probably inspired me. <img src=">

I'm using three levels of a connected idea for the bad guys in my book. I don't think there's a problem if each are clearly defined.

cheers,

I don't think the races are a worry if the characters are strong enough.

But I would still change the names... there are some shallow people (ahahah pun intended this time) out there.

I think some readers don't read as completely as the people on this board and they merely gloss over things... and the names may confuse them... but maybe not.

What are the characteristics of the races?

If they are clearly defined they could e given nicknames...

Like we do for races on earth... except keep them nice... no place for rascism in the modern world.
