Proposed history for the 3rd Cthonian faction

Started by Mr X, August 27, 2009, 12:20:41 PM

Previous topic - Next topic

What should the third Cthonian faction be called?

Phosphornii
Phosphorii

perhaps we should try to find a word crossed between Phoenix, which we basically agreed is their symbol, and three, or a variant of the word, as they were the third race.
So we only get one chance can we take it
And we only get one life can't exchange it
Can we hold on to what we have don't replace it
The age of innocence is fading..... Like an old dream

perhaps not you, still, clavin and i both like the idea as do i believe others in the project.

1. Write the story
2. Name the races

Once we get a good idea of what we're doing we can do the polishing. Right now we need a story to work with so we can be more efficient in modding.

i'm beginning to agree, i think Mr.X should close this topic and create a new one when we have a solid storyline.

Gaians is the cheesiest of them all.

How unoriginal and boring.

Says a guy on a forum for a game with the name 'Battlezone'.  :-P
Others would merely say it was good humour.

Fair enough. :p

But also Gaians as a name seems to me very standard. True? How many races/creatures/things can you think of that are a variation of Gaea? How many of Phosphoroni?

Edit: Let's move on, or perhaps pause this discussion until we can get a storyline hammered out.

agreed, but whenever we try to, something else comes up

Those speed bumps are part of the natural progression of the storytelling.

Clavin12

Yes I agree. I think it was wise to narrow the writers down to two as well.

I think I might lock this. We are worrying too much on naming the races and designing them. Let's get a storyline written out first, then we can decide on all the aesthetics and details.

If this turns out unnecessary, it can be unlocked by another local mod, but we are getting ahead of ourselves here.
