[QUOTE="Arrahnel, post: 5238491, member: 92110"] Hi folk Here's my issues I am actually creating a setting on my own, so far i did it well but now i fell like i have a lack of imagination to create name to monster and stuff like that First of all I have to say that I'm trying to get the game on another level for my players. I know its gonna seams insane but all the things that already existing i try to give them another view, other name, other percpective.... if you don't understand what im trying to say well let's make an exemple For exemple You see, when i look into monster manual of Dnd i dont understand why there is a lot of thing for the abyss and the nine hells but there is none interesting enough to me for the heaven ... I try to create that .. Like different type of Angel with original name ... some already existing (like Asinur (pl of Aesir)) I am realy try to create some thing interesting like Celestial Dragon and other new things that i wont reveal here ... Another of my probleme is to name things .... cuz i dont wamt things like : Orc Elf Gnome Halfling and other stuff already used and i'm realy realy sick of english name like : boneeater forestwraith ect.. i want new ideas new name and other (exemple i named my view of Halfling : the Nephling)....and for now i seams that i had my great time of naming now im completely uncreative ... Like right now i realy tring to create an original name for my Lion poeple (Litorians Leonins Leonal Wemic) but like I siaid i dont want use those I want something that came from me so far the best one i found is : Ganaren but i realy don't things that one is suitable so i want your opinion on that I tried with meaning like Leo (latin) aslan (turc) simba (African) asad (arabian) for lion but i didn't found somethings that i like The other probleme that i have is about EVERYONE IN THE WORLD lol here what i means by that : every time i create somethings someone stole my idea !!!! recently i went to watch The Last airbender (aka avatar) and i realy got mad when i heared the name of that Girl '' Katara '' ,,, i was like what .....!!!!!! Why: It's only beacause my feodal japan land have this name : Katara ,,,, i never watcvhed avatar before i just take Katana and romove the last part to add -ra .... thats all .... Another exemple ... The gnome in my game have created a city a powerful city that is their capital Do you know World of Warcraft .. if yes do you know Dalaran the flying city .... Yes? .... Well my city is a city that fly by magic and i create that Way before they create Wrath of the lich king ( like about 7 years before .. i know it's kinda freak i much time itake to create things ) this is so frustrating ... when someone tell you that you take the idea there ... NO I DIDN'T !!!! Also my world still nead a name , something catchy for now it name is : Argon ... So can you help me Just need some interesting ideas BTW if this post is not in the good section then im truly sorry about it im kinda new [/QUOTE]
