Historical Background[edit]

All imbued cells used in Salvage are named after various cloud formations.


Pileus means “hood” or “cap” in Latin, but in this context it appears to refer to cumulus pileus, a variety of cumulus cloud or cumulonimbus pileus, a variety of cumulonimbus cloud. Both of these types are formed by strong updrafts in combination with moist air lower down in the troposphere. The presence of these clouds tend to be indicative of pending or potential severe weather as it indicates strong updrafts within clouds (and the vertical growth of cumulus and cumulonimbus clouds is indicative of the development of clouds responsible for thunderstorms).


Cumulus pileus

These are cumulus clouds (large, puffy, cottony clouds) that have a hood-like shape on their upper surface, a small horizontal cloud appearing over the cumulus cloud.


Cumulonimbus pileus

These are cumulonimbus clouds (rain-bearing cumulus clouds) that have a hood-like shape on their upper surface, a small horizontal cloud appearing over the cumulonimbus cloud. An image of this cloud type can be found at this link [1]
