Yeah, I'll see who's character I think I could make a small connection with, then PM them.
But I do have more ideas for locations! And names! I won't put up anything concrete, it's your right to create the sandbox after all, but I'll be throwing out a lot of suggestions.
- Peninsula sounds fun. Of course with the docks and ports of a peninsula comes one more thing: the pier life! Those amusement parks and game stands and food vendors that people flock to in the summer months. Possible names could be The Seawall Boardwalk, Midway, or Harrison Pier.
- Park areas are a must. There might be one or several parks throughout the city, but usually larger cities have some kind of green congregation areas of some kind. Or maybe it's just some nice brick with a public fountain, whatever. Parks like this might be called Wilhelm Park, Troy Park, or Sanderson Park.
- Every city has some slums! The slummy district might have names such as Edinburough, Franklin, or Hutcheson.
- Suburbs! Everyone loves suburbs! Nice, quiet residence areas with white picket fences and trees on the boulevard. They probably sound like Greensburough, Quenton, or Lilac Acres.
- Downtown nightlife! The districts with all the bars and stores and things to do! Somewhere along the lines of Alexandria, Perennial Square, and Old Westbrook.
- The glitz and glamour of uptown, where all the expensive shit, banks, and company buildings are! Maddison Heights, Sinclair, or North Chaimberlain sound appropriate to me.
- As for the city itself, feel free to take from any of the names above, but I've got more: New Luxembourg, Heartsvale, Northport, Ashton, and Raven City all come to mind.
- Got ideas for the scientific corporation as well: World Science United, RevoCo (or Revolutionary Corporation), Chimera Corp., Advance Industries, Biological Technology Limited (BioTech), or maybe a letter agency like STRIFE (Science and Technological Research Industrial Forefront Enterprises).
Big name city with tall buildings like New York? Something that pops and sounds fancy, like Verelle, Iambic City, or St. Navarro. Justatown? Something plain, like Saxton or Southwick or Bricksvale. Industrious boom town choked with smokestacks? Make it sound like it relates in a way like Eastport, Marquee, or Central Junction. Dilapidated hellhole? Rotterdale, Blackwood, Crampton, or something shady like that.
