Cursing in the city-states! - Riven - 09-30-2015

What do you guys think are some phrases that can be used as IC swears given each city-state?

I believe "Thal's balls" is a pretty good Ul'dahn one ;p

Yeah that's a good one!

And I've heard "Matron's teats!", "by the hells", "Curse the Twelve!", "the seven hells", "Shite", "Bloody", "Bleedin'" (Millicent's got quite the mouth), "flies on muck", "Byregot's beard"... All around Gridania.

And I've kind of always liked: "Ifirit take the last." But I don't think it's a curse so much as it's said about leaving/not leaving a person behind. I got that from the Red Swallows up in Greater La Noscea.

A good friend of mine is partial to, "Halone's frozen tits!"

Lominsans tend to be fans of "swivvin'", "the seven hells," "bloody," "shite," and "arse." Pirate slang will serve you well in Vylbrand. Smile

I heard Mylla shout "godsdammit" yesterday.  We were ambushed by a purple Miqo'te who was so cute, my character just stood there staring.

"Aw hell Naul" works good for Hammer stomes

"Rutting" is also yet another euphemism for the F-word in addition to "swiving" Smile

Any variation on "Twelves' _____" will also serve you well. Twelve preserve, Twelves' sakes, etc.

Gridanians
Greenwrath upon you!


RE: Cursing in the city-states! - Zetchryn - 09-30-2015

"Ifrit's flaming balls!" I heard the other day.


RE: Cursing in the city-states! - FreelanceWizard - 09-30-2015

Oh, here's two others:

Althyk's dick!
Nophica's tits! (Or teats, or... well. You've seen the official art for the Adders, surely?)

Rhyming curses involving the gods seem to always be popular. Smile


RE: Cursing in the city-states! - Kage - 09-30-2015

I'm sure someone somewhere has a curse related to the Sultana, the Sultanate or the Syndicate.

... I'm just not that person.

I upgraded to "Halone's Hoary Hymen!" some time ago. It gets some weird looks, which I take as a compliment.
