Trivia[]

Allusion[]

  • Saphron and Terra Cotta may also refer to the ancient Greek poetess Sappho of Lesbos, so famed for her romantic preference for women that the name of her homeland coined the term "lesbian", and her own name coined the term "sapphic". Many of her works that survived did so on terra cotta pottery shards.

Color Naming Rule[]

  • The name "Terra" means "Earth", bringing blues, greens, whites and browns to mind.
  • Terra Cotta comes from terracotta, a type of ceramic. It also means "cooked earth" in Latin.
  • Arc may come from the French word arc-en-ciel, meaning "rainbow".

Media[]

  • She and Saphron were second parents of same-sex on Rooster Teeth, besides Ered's fathers form Camp Camp.
