Either that or they are using the Hirigana 'r' for 'l' phonetic rule. If that is the reason, then I can understand why they are putting the 'l' there.
In case some don't know, it's a typical practice to replace an 'L' with an 'R' because of spelling issues. Japanese doesn't have an 'L' and to write it in Hirigana, they use 'R's. It usually happens in names, if I'm not mistaken. Say for instance, 'lime' would be spelled out in Hirigana as 'ra-i-mu' or something to that effect. That's the easiest way I can explain it...if someone else can do it better, by all means...:bows:
But seriously, if they lurk this forum, it's suppose to be 'Bloodriver' - that's the official English spelling of the name.
