Language and Translation

NERO has it's own Dark Elven language known as Kuraianki, which is loosely based on modified/simplified Japanese, though many players choose to learn and/or use Japanese in its entirety. Kanji is also often used, and referred to as "Ancient Vornae" in the written form. Various Dark Elven cultures may recommend other languages, as well, as their “regional” dialect. While you do not need to feel obligated to learn any additional language in order to play a Dark Elf, some plot teams choose to make use of it in certain aspects of their plotlines and it can add greatly to the flavor and roleplaying envornment.
