It's that brand recognition thing again. See, as long as the site is called "EN World", everyone is going to know about Eric Noah. Noone is going to know about the guy from Southampton who does all the actual work. Hence my previous suggestion of "Morrusworld". Even though it sounds like something out of a Chevy Chase movie.
And note also that HBovine talked about "Piratecat OF Eric Noah", which clearly means "Piratecat from the place formerly known as Eric Noah". This is a reference to the fate of anyone who actually reaches 20th level, as Eric Noah, being a 20th level loremaster, has done. Once a character has achieved such heights of power and ability, they undergo an irreversible transformation. They swell up enormously from the trapped gases within, and float up into the atmosphere. Their gases cause them to escape the shackles of gravity, and they break free from their home planet's embrace, and become wanderers between the stars. If they are lucky, they will eventually wander into the gravity well of another star, and settle into a new orbit. Some such characters, if they are powerful/flatulent enough, will also acquire an atmosphere of their own capable of sustaining life. Their life forms will eventually attain sentience and will worship the life force of the planet they live on, all the time unconscious of the fact that they are actually worshipping what was once a lowly mortal being like themselves. Thus do epic-level characters achieve apotheosis and become deities.
Is this a fate you want to happen to you? I think not. Be happy with the life you have, rather than trying to become a so-called "god" like these tryhard Epic-level types.
Hope this helps!
