Notes
The name apparently refers to Götterdämmerung, German for "Twilight of the Gods," the title of a piece from Richard Wagner's famous opera Der Ring des Nibelungen. While the word is spelled thusly in many instances in canon sources, there are also many instances where the diacritics are omitted from the ä and ö, as "Gotterdammerung." Neither "Gotter" nor "Dammerung" is an existing or meaningful word in German or any other language. It is thus generally assumed in all cases that the correct spelling would be with diacritics, i.e. Götterdämmerung.
