Hello all,
          	
          	So I am working with a group of my friends to write a story set in a fantasy world. We are making new creatures, and one of the groups undergoes a transformation process that allows them to shift from childhood to adulthood. The process is called "vicambescence." We want to develop a verb form, but we cannot decide between two options: "vicambify" and "vicamber." Does anyone have suggestions?

Being that it's your story you can chuck the rules out the window. It's not like the English language sets a great example for following them anyway.

Oh and "scence' is a suffix for 'state of being', like translucence is the state of being translucent. If that helps. You may already know all this. I have no idea.
