Glorantha, the setting, was created by Greg Stafford. In Glorantha, in the Holy Country, the largest city is called Nochet. Back in the day, Greg's gaming group were the first people to "explore" the Holy Country. One of the players pointed to the large city on the map and asked, "Does this place have a name?" Greg replied, "Not yet." The name stuck. There are many more examples from Glorantha, including one large piece of geography being literally the result of a lucky dice roll in a wargame. "Worthy" names have a long history! HAHA, brilliant!  |

Those of you that have suggested names, what did you use for inspiration for the names? I was tempted to back on that level but didn't think I would come up with a worthy name, hence my curiosity. I'm from British Columbia, Canada so I picked "Spirit Bear", which are unique to this region. Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kermode_bearBrian Burnaby, BC Canada |

I can’t believe I never answered this.
My names Troy, so I went with Trojan Deep. Probably had some subconscious influence from the Trojan Reach sector in Traveller.

In case you missed it, the most recent Kickstarter update is the near-final call for checking of Outback place names.
