Fishing for some key terms.

Terms are important for Wiki stuff, so that pages can be properly structured. I'm looking for some official terminology that could be used for making things easy. Being able to cite terms is always nice!

A link to a peculiar discord message is here. This implies that aquatic mounts aren't going to be their own separate tier row and are in a column over (i.e. tier 1A, tier 2A, tier 3A)! With this I have three questions unanswered:

1.) If Royal mounts are what the third tier of mounts are called, what are the first two tiers called?
2.) The types of non-aquatic mounts are known to be Land, Gliding, and Flying. What are the types of aquatic mounts called?
3.) Is there a term for non-aquatic mounts? If non-aquatic mounts are in their own column, they'll need a word to describe them.

I'm more or less looking for potential citations. Find anything? Would love to hear about it! On a side note, to make things fun if there are no citations available, it might also be fun to offer suggestions on what aquatic mount types could be called. What would you call aquatic mount types?

    Tier 1, 2 and 3 royal mounts maybe?
    Mounts can describe land, gliding and flying, and situational could be used for aquatic since their use it limited to 1 terrain (water).

    Sorry if I did not understand the question. If you wanted me to make up some terms, I did.

    Tried to rephrase the last question a little. There's two questions directed at the community in there, in case there are no citations to be found and the first question doesn't go anywhere.

    Tried to make a table of potential missing terms, but the BBcode didn't like it 100%. There goes that attempt of communicating what I believe is going on and what I'm looking for. :joy:


    [th]Tier #[/th] [th]Tier Name[/th] [th]???[/th] [th]Aquatic[/th]
    1 ??? Land ???
    2 ??? Gliding ???
    3 Royal Flying ???


    Edit: Maybe this makeshift table could help?

    "Fey creature." It was compared to being a boat on a river. The term itself just a joke about ferry boats. I probably can't use it in a Wiki. On the other hand, tier 1 ground mount could be the equivalent of a surface level water creature. Just food for thought.

    This what your looking for?
    Most people never listen. They are just waiting on you to quit making noise so they can.

    That's what I want to edit, but I'll need some words and citations towards them being used. I'm on a search!
