    Hello Celeste team,

    I realize that AOEO is not historically accurate in every aspect. It has a more fun-based aesthetic look as well, but could it be possible to change the name of an advisor? I'm talking about "Battlemaster Theokoles" to "Battlemaster Theoklis" or even better to "Battlemaster Theocles".

    Based on the name's etymology, Theocles roughly means "he who glorifies God/Gods with his works". On the other hand, Theokoles is not a real (Greek) name and was probably inspired by Starz's Spartacus series. I haven't done any academic research on this, but I'm positive that's the case. That being said, Theokoles translates to "divine ass" in Greek or something like that... which is funny but frustrating at the same time.

    Best,
    Harry

    I feel like a big portion of greek names are also changed for ease of reading in English, aka the Worlds set "Official Language". I mean, Heracles got changed to Hercules xD Though that coulda been a Roman thing, not sure.

    Considering the type of enhancement that advisor provides I think Hercules would have been more appropriate as a name to be given instead of Theokoles, it's cooler

    This is a really cool post. I’m curious now what’s up with the name.
