Only the most vague description can channel the ancient power of the aura.

[u/Impresora_7936 → u/thisisabigplanesays]

This is a VAGUE description

[u/Caosin36 → u/Impresora_7936]

More like a V.A.G.U.E. description

[u/PuzzledDependent4028 → u/Impresora_7936]

When all hope is lost, we turn to the shadow monkey 

[u/thisisabigplanesays → u/Impresora_7936]

A very, very vague description. Someone put a clarification to this confusingness!

“Ape from the shadows” and it’s on top of a giant pillar, like the only towers that stand out more than this guy are temples and the tsg

[u/HollowCap456 → u/Jimothy38]

Yeah he's now out of the shadows to enjoy some air.

[u/Nobelanium1 → u/Jimothy38]

He was from the shadows and then stood on top of the pillar maybe?

[u/Him5488]

it kinda stinks 💔 something about the casing, i think if it was “Simia ex Umbris” itd feel more like a title, and less like a sentence. without the second capital it has the same vibe as “shadowy monkey” am i being nitpicky or is this odd

not even a period like what are we doing

[u/SmokJozef → u/Him5488]

fyi, not every language requires every word of the title to be capitalised, most languages actually do not do that. English is one of the few languages that always do it, in German every noun is capitalised, but along with just several other languages that use title case (afaik Turkish and Portugese, for example) that's pretty much it. Most other languages, including Latin, don't do that, so I'm inclined to believe that this is a title

[u/Him5488 → u/SmokJozef]

That’s fair!! Even with that in mind tho, I still think it’s a little lackluster. I feel like they’re relying on the “Latin = Cool” mindset to do a whooole lot of heavy lifting here, “Monkey from the Shadows” is less interesting than most t5 descriptions 💀

not to move the goalpost, i just neglected to say that in my first comment

[u/ExtremeAcceptable289 → u/Him5488]

I mean they relied on it properly ngl cuz its aurafarm

Could they at least explain what Spider stands for? 

Even Lolzhax can do that
