'Mörkö' actually has a double meaning. First off, it's Finnish for 'boogeyman' (inexact translation), i.e. a vaguely-defined scary, evil monster in the darkness that preys on children and brings nightmares, but is never actually (lived to be) seen. Compare: 'mörökölli', one of the Finnish words for grumpy, ugly, old people who don't like children.

Mörkö is also the name of a Moomin character, known as The Groke in English. Tove Jansson, the author, is fond of symbolism: the Groke is a tragic, lonely being that wanders around, looking for friends, but can't find any because her touch is freezingly cold and she leaves a trail of ice as she goes. Not at all evil, she just needs a hug, but can't have one.

I took inspiration from both meanings, as well as Monster In The Darkness from the webcomic Order of the Stick to create a misunderstood monster, trying my best not to rip too much off and have some material of my own.

Mörkö, by personality, would be quite a benign god, were it not for its spheres. It deems its actions a necessary evil, and will probably come to regret a lot. No, I won't roleplay any Wangst, don't worry.

Isgon is just backwards from one of other gods Nogis. Nogis is taken from the MTG god Mogis

Speaking of lowest intelligence, that reminds me of the fact that it's probably your first time in prison. Don't worry, I can give you some tips, having spent some time in a few myself. The best way to make friends here is to drop the soap during shower time. Try it, I'm sure you'll love making friends like that!

Zenurion doesn't mean anything (at least as far as I know), it just sounded nice to me.

Same here, although Tenat was intended to be more aligned with the Crystallum, while Yena is more aligned with the Botani.

It probably won't (hopefully) go that far.

But honestly I really have no idea why that fight started, was it because of the sparring or just because my character was annoying?

Arkford comes from two separate words.

(Richard) Arkwright, who invented a spinning loom and built a textile mill in Derbyshire and helped start the industrial revolution.

The name of the town? Cromford. It's not too far from Derby, where I live.

I was under the impression spheres only gave you income if lots of people associated you with them.

But that means Si would suffer, because she's associated with corruption, not nature or the elements. Which are her spheres.
