I've never though about this! Let me give a try for german. Shouldn't be that hard, you can make a name out of almost anything, just smash the words together.
Banescale - Fluchschuppe/Unheilschuppe (not really great...)
Bognseak - Moorschleicher (cute but suspicious, I like it)
Coatl - Coatl
Fae - Fee
Gaoler - Gefängniswärter (awful. you could shorten it to Wärter though)
Guardian - Wächter/Hüter/Beschützer (I think these are all a good fit)
Imperial - Kaiserlich
Mirror - Spiegel
Nocturne - Nocturne
Pearlcatcher - Perlenfänger (that's a cute one)
Ridgeback - Kammrücken (quite literal)
Skydancer - Himmelstänzer (also a cool one)
Snapper - Schnapper
Spiral - Spirale
Tundra - Tundra
Veilspun - Schleiergesponnen (doesn't really work... especially since it's past tense)
Wildclaw - Wildklaue/Wildkralle (that's a okay. sounds like a warrior cats name tho)
[/quote]
@modernIcarus
Veilspun would kinda work if it were Schleierwirbel.
But overall, meh. Once I play games in English I can't warm up to German versions.
[/quote]
They can sound better with ‚Drache’/‚Dragon‘
As in
Spiegel-Drachen, Kaiserliche Drachen, Schnappdrachen, Wärterdrachen, Wächterdrachen
Nocturne maybe as ‚Nachtdrachen‘
I really like Schleierwirbel, Perlfänger, Himmelstänzer and Moorschleicher though

Banescale - Luskowa Zmora/Zgubna Luska (first one translated back would be more 'scaly bane', but I also feel it makes more sense as the breed name)
[/quote]
Luskowa Zmora sounds so good, makes me think of HTYD franchise a bit
[quote name="Unfathomed" date="2021-05-12 02:48:18" ]
Gaoler - Straznik Wiezienny (if we go directly from "Jailer")/Dozorca (similar meaning, but imo sounds better)
[/quote]
Maybe something like [b]Wartownik[/b] or [b]Gwardzista[/b] would work? Both wordl are more soldierlike, but sound better than [b]Dozorca[/b]
Also:
[quote name="Unfathomed" date="2021-05-12 02:48:18" ]
Veilspun - Przedzacy Zaslone ("the one who spins the veil") or Tkajacy Zaslone ("the one who weaves the veil"), although I would probably translate it as [b]Przadka [/b]

Why would Fae be just Fei? There is an approximate translation for the word
Everything else looks like what I wrote, just these are the plain words and I use derivations. I think "Huai" better translates as ruin which better fits the name Banescale.
