midhras:
Believe it or not, but 'midhras' actually has a meaning in Quenya or Sindarin or at least some Elven tongue. Try to find out, if you can. This was not by design mind you!
Actually, midhras is somewhat of a bastardization of Mithras, a Roman war god. I preferred the softer -dh to the harsher -th (this is because I was influenced by Tolkienesque nomenclature (e.g. Caradhras). Mithras was revered by Roman soldiers, and likes to slaughter bulls. Which is fierce!
You may, if you like, refer to me as Sol Invictus or Unconquerable Sun. I dig that.
Also, the figure of Jesus is thought to be modelled after Mithras. But Jesus has nothing on me.
