NPC/Lore names

I am asking about the NPCs name meanings and the characters in the lore names meaning. I know this game is futuristic, so many of the names don't actually exist. But I know that its roots and phonetic sounds may come from similar words known, so if someone wants to help out my curiosity, this would be helpful. Also, this is good for people who want to role play with exotic names, as an exotic engram (long stretch for that joke).

  • You probably already know about the phalanx. Named after the Ancient Greek(?) military formation. Or whatever their version of a military was. It's like a wall of shields with spears sticking out of the gaps between the shields. Those with the shields protected the group (obviously) and those behind them would attack anyone who got close. Made it very easy to advance or retreat with minimal casualties You'll see the resemblance in the Valus Ta'aurc encounter. Three phalanxes will sit side by side in the centre of the room and fire at you from behind their shields. [spoiler]Sorry if I got any information wrong but that's all I can remember[/spoiler]
