Polish translation is indeed weird. As it is written before, Zealot is translated to Dark priest (Mroczny kap³an). The correct word is Fanatyk. Also Squire is Giermek not Krzy¿owiec (which means Crusader). A lot of things like that.
And Pixie is Pani negocjowalnego afektu Joke.

Hell Hound - Pekelna liska (Czech)

Indeed. Poles have always annoying habit to "improve" their versions of names. It can be seen not only in heroes but also in many different games. One of the most anooying was translating units' names in "Warhammer 40K". No one have ever used them before. Maybe just because they sound silly

There is no creatures like Naga from heroes 3 in my mythology.
First I saw it in Heroes 3.
But, from their appearance, maybe 'wanita ular' (Snake woman)???
