Congratulations, MLN, on your win. Hope you don't spend the money too wisely.

To GRM:
According to Brewer's the word at 1ac translates from the Greek as 'bear killer'. Brewer's is normally a good source for this type of theme but I found only a few of the words in there this time. The rest I either knew or got through googling.

GRM

Thank you Rapparee. Problem solved. I'm not sure that I like this excursion from the other thematic answers, particularly as extensive web searches did not bring up any matches for the letter pattern.

I'm afraid I haven't a Brewer's, but I can usually find what I want in the Brewer's section of
