"Groomed" feels appropriate in that regard, though less fantastic. "Purified", "Refined", "Tamed" and such follow a similar way. If the term has been written by the former slaves races now freed, they probably want a different picture of it. In that case, something inspired and obnoxiously independent (they're gonna wanna downplay their reliance on the Githyanki) like "Enlightened" or "Successors". "Inheritors" if they still want to respect their pre-awakened history. Moving away from It's really gonna depend on your themes though. E.g. if you run with emptiness as a game-wide metaphor, maybe call your mindless ones "Hollow". That's what Dark Souls does (though it uses downfall rather than uplift). --- One day dude, I'm just gonna get off the bus, and I'm gonna run in the woods and never come back, and when I come back I'm gonna be the knife master! -The Rev ...
