Three Human monotheist religions are more god-centered but still human-friendly: the cult of Domvik, Ranil and Kaoraku (an ascended dragon).

Domvik is a chunk of the One and has Seven Faces: Teacher, Defender of the Faith, Whip of Heretics, Creator of Life, Spring of Kindness, Healer and Black Angel. It might be that all of these were separate chunks of One but now they are kneaded together inseparably. His worshiper's home is Shadon and their priests also has a language to practice their faith, the "Lingua Domini".
When the authors made the game they might dreamed of languages but at first they didn't created any just threw out some foreign sounding words to add to the mood. And all were borrowed mostly from Latin and twisted a bit and it didn't matter which Ynevian culture got them. So that's how it happened that the Kyrs, Krán, Pyarron, Shadon, etc. all got Latin sounding languages. At first. Then they put some thought in that and decided that Shadon will get a language which is similar to Latin and Greek. Which is the basis of the "Lingua Domini"? I'm not sure. But here's some example.
Some castes:
Monk = faios
Cleric = leios
Paladin = leios thaira
Inquisitor = taleios
Witchhunter = mendraios
Scientific ranks (from I. to VI.): Charta Pura, Exploitus, Initiatus, Albus, Candidatus, Canus.
Clerical ranks (in the Church): pater, sacerdos, sacerdos maximus, archiepiscopus, cardinalis, Pater Maximus.
So for KMs it's advisable to make up Shadonian language on similar basis.
Here I have to write about the language of Gorvik. I think it's discussed on forums, and it's established it should be similar to a mix of Italian and Spanish. However the words already available don't mirror this in many cases. For example Gorvik = Holy Land, but the vik part the one that should mean Holy as their archbishops are called ranashavik. Then gor = land. But what is ranasha? Two examples which following the rule: bona = right, good; cabrao = landed knight, overseer of an estate, second in command of a clans (thief or assassin).
But for languages one would need grammar too which is non-existent in case of all languages but one: the Kyr got a little and a short language history too.


Ranil is the Sun god of a folk arrived from another Material Plane (another planet basically). Since their arrival his role changed somewhat, now he is also the guardian and patron of the Dwoon people. Their religion is very exclusive as they believe Ranil is omnipotent and everything else (including other folks' gods) exist thanks to his will. In Domvik's or even Ranagol's faith the other gods are exist independently from Domvik and Ranagol, their followers only deny their godhood. The Dwoon believe bad things are thrown by Ranil before them as a test, they also believe dark also the creation of Ranil.


Kaoraku is the god of Niare and was elevated to godhood by the Mighty Ones of Toron when the country itself was created. His body exists in the Ninth Era, sleeps and dreams about the past (sumtin liek that). He has two means of communication with his followers, in ghost form he can talk to individuals, but en masse he keeps in touch with them through the country's pagodas. Niare is isolated by her mountains from rest of Ynev but also by choice - like Japan or something - because it helps them keep away some demons from the Eight Wilderness (I guess it's another Plane).
