Totally wrong mythos By the way, were these three supposed to refer to the aforementioned Thuringwethil-Ungoliant-Balrog? Respectively??? (points at the latest)

Ungoliant-related still, the "Mistress of Her Own Lust" is probably too long, is it? Otherwise, I can't think right now of anything similar from the mythos. But the one pointed above by G55 I think is related enough.

I like Beater and Biter. Maybe Devouring Fire as well, or, on the "teeth" motif, We Has Only Six.

I don't get what's all the "wrong mythos" stuff about. Is that a reference to some other fantasy book?

Playng with Everlasting Lust, you can get Everlasting and Everlusting, or something like Ever Thirsting Never Drinking - though that one might be too close to Hooky's Alive Without Breath.

Wow, what a nice surprise. And nice choices everybody!

Agan: Lascivious Lioness? But I must say I like Biter and Beater as well.

Still settling on mine. It is, presumably, permanent and I want to get it right.

I want you to know that I love all your suggestions! If Lommy was home, she'd probably be wondering why I'm chuckling alone in my room.

However, I'm also letting you know that I'm not going to pick a Lovecraft-themed PT, because delightful as it was to read his stories alone, at the summer cabin in the middle of the night, in my teens, it also scared the crap out of me. I like to think I've grown more stable since, but you never know.

Mistress of Her Own Lust is one I thought of, as was Unlight. My options also included Naked Flame and Shadow and Flame, but I think I've now more or less decided what to choose...

edit: xed with Pitch. Wee hee I like it! Very appropriate.
