Let's see how creative you guys are.

Quote from Dictionary
A figurative, usually compound expression used in place of a name or noun, especially in Old English and Old Norse poetry

Example, the ocean could be "whale-road."
A middle age kenning for blood is "slaughter-dew."

Basically, you give a word, and a person will give it its kenning form followed by another word for the next person. I don't care what words you give, it can be Starcraft based for all I care (eg. Irradiate could be blood-boiler :P)

Anyway, first word:

Wallet



None.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.
