Matthewlock Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Well we were suppose to make a fantasy island for an assignment and I'm having a tough time on deciding what to call it. Here's the island I've created on Photoshop. Try to make it so I can elaborate on it. I need to have 2 Historic Landmarks. This is not helping me with homework, just ideas. Might post it on tip-it... :thumbsup: Siggie needs work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThurinEthir Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Just randomly type out letters on your keyboard. I enjoy drawing maps of random "fake" places, and I name everything by whatever letters come to mind first. For example...Kylt is one of my "city's" names. K, y, l and t were the first four letters in my mind. So right now... Tramutlk. Pronounced Tra-mutt-elk. A mix between typing and whichever letters come to mind, Of course, you could always do "Old ______", since you said you need historic landmarks. Cenin pân nîd, istan pân nîd, dan nin ú-cenich, nin ú-istach.Ithil luin eria vi menel caran...Tîn dan delu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedofsound Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 The Theocracy of [insert your initials here] So mine would be... The Theocracy of WWM You can't ever find a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any. You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write "(bleep) you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say "Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was born and what year I died, and then right under that it'll say "(bleep) you."

Viktorkrum77 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 The islands of Tallasnia (pronounced Ta-las-nia (the second 'a' is long and low)) are two small islands inhabited by the Tallasnian people. There language is Tallasnian, a language similar to that of the Phillipines and East Timur. They have two landmarks, they worship there gods. There religion is Filonism (pronoucned Fa-lone-e-is-um), and there two main gods are Hikka (He-ka) and Pokku (Po-ku). How's that? 8-) Me doing staff.

Dragonwizerd Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 make it sound exotic! use -y s to make -i sounds, throw in a few x-es and z-s and maybe a p or m/n or t for good mesure... so with that, i've come up with something like tarmyxzuma (tar-ix-zue-ma) maybe something smaller than that but make it cool! Yayyyyyy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthewlock Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 Colored. Now I definitly need a title. I can base other things on it. Constructive Critism on colors...didn't feel like I did too good of a job... EDIT: Switched around the shallow one and the less-shallow one. Made the other island have shallow water too... :thumbsup: Siggie needs work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viktorkrum77 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Yea, the smaller island also needs to be surrounded by shallow water. It can have a drop off, but it still needs some shallow water, considering the other island has some. Me doing staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
