After months of work, chanelqueen17 has created a gorgeous scene of Alice and Oz from Pandora Hearts, using scans that didn't even feature both characters together. Even after spending so much time on matching the details of the characters to their new looks, chanelqueen17 didn't stop there and went all out on the background too! This wallpaper definitely needs to be seen!

Hmm.. that could be a name for one of the regions or for a specific place. I was thinking to remain more on the "typical" fantasy fanfare, as that could allow us to be a little more creative with locations, since that's the whole point of the project in first place. We can have different regions and continents of the world with different styles (some that may reflect a more western-fantasy look, others that may reflect an eastern/asian look).
Right now I'm thinking of something along the lines of Escaflowne's world, or even Final Fantasy's Ivalice in terms of how it's composed. Different cultures and looks but overall they're still "coherent". I don't know if that makes sense, heh.

Anyway, keep proposing names, then we can make a poll and let the majority decide on which name works best, keeping in mind that the kind of project we could be going for.

As for my suggestion for the world's name: Nalea.
I got it with one of those random fantasy generators (lol), but I thought it sounded well enough as a name for a whole fantasy world, since it's not too specific. In my opinion a world's name has to sound a little generic, it has to convey a fantasy vibe but nothing else. Specific names have to convey specific regions, towns, locations and such, but for a world I think the name doesn't have to carry too many levels of meanings, as long as it flows nicely.

What about pangea....i know it's not exactly original but this whole concept of one content with many zones and etc kinda bring this to mind

for those people who might not know...pangea was the super continent that later split into all our individual continents we have today ..the main reason why it came to mind lol

I like the name Balaji as a world name.

We are going to have 5 different sections of the world right?
names for the different sections:
Onigashima
Rama
Milan
Chesmu
Helki

Before deciding the "sections" of the world, let's do the world's name first then we'll do an "introductionary" wallpaper to this world and then we'll plan the amount of continents, areas and create a map of it.

As for "Pangea", it's a good one but if possible I'd like you guys to suggest original names that haven't already been used. I'd still go for a similar kind of name though.

I like the idea of a original name aswell, maybe everyone could come up with one name and we could start a vote.

Right now out of the original names suggested so far we have:

- Belaji
- Nalea
- Ekari
- Dejoru
- Firera
- Arunei
- Akiku
- Kie-cho

I add:
- Arus
- Ishlia
- Gahlea

[edit]Added
- Labryn
- Iridil

I'd say that we could have a total list of 20 names and then have everybody select three of them, and then do a further poll to select the name. Right now the list is of 13 names. 7 more!

I think we should make the most popular name the name of the world, then the next 5 or so the names of the continents, then countries, then islands and cities, and so forth. of course that would depend on how many name suggestions we get.

btw i like Arus the best so far.

Good idea. The name of the world and then eventually the ones of the continents (we don't really have to make 5 regions, we can make less if we want).

[edit]Added one more
- Iridil

7 to go before we start voting.
