Quick question from a newbie:
A person from Sossal is a Sossrim, a Sossrim speaks Sossic. But what's the general adjective for things from Sossal and by Sossrim folks?
For example, can you say Sossrim cuisine? Sossic handicraft? Sossalish architecture? Sossar art?

Sossi. 
I don't have a source noted for it, but I found this in my notes: "Sossrim or Sossar (Use the first term for beings, and the second for items.)" |

| The adjective is "Sossar", as used in the FRCS 3e, page 111. There's only one instance of that, though, I couldn't find another in my notes. Sossal-related items are rarely mentioned. |

There's also Sossar Bay, which may or may not be using the word as an adjective.
The people are always known as Sossrim, but occasionally Sossarhim.
Meanwhile, a Sosser (with an 'e') is a type of horse found there – don't get the two confused! :) (That's in Champions of Valor.) |

Senior Scribe BadCatMan,
Do you think the inclusion of "Sossarhim" might indicate a gender based element as you see in German?
Best regards,
