[QUOTE="d23, post: 5240039, member: 90222"] How about using colors to define the mood? A quick trip to [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_colors#Colors_by_shade"]wikipedia [/URL]has lots of colors to choose from. Perhaps some inspiration from [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_China"]Chinese History[/URL] with its descriptive names for time periods? (warring states, spring and autumn annals, han dynasty, etc) So if you were say, going for a dark ages theme where the horrors of death are close and it is generally depressing, you could look at the shades of Blue, Purple or Gray and pick up a few colors. Indigo, Cerulean, Palatinate might make good fantasy like choices, and then you tag on some of those fancy words (are they called adjectives? Sorry I'm no English major): [B]Indigo Empires The Indigo Mandate Palatinate Dynasties The Cerulean Prophecy[/B] [B]Lands of Cerulean[/B] There are also other Gemstones such as Amethyst and Sapphire which can be used:[B] Sapphire Rebellion Saga Amethyst Annals Azure Legacy[/B] [B]Obsidian Age[/B] I hope this helps inspire others to come up with better stuff too. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
