Alright, here's the thing: I need names. I suck with names, the name for the continent of the RP, names for each of the nations/races. City names, too, but those can be supplied by the 'fill in the blanks' nature of this RP... I'll edit this post later when I think of anything else.
Oh, and in case anyone was wondering, I've opened the two middle forums in the list to public viewing. Please no posting until they're functional, though.

Artificers:
Artificers are unnatural. They use natural resources to create unnatural things. Therefor, they should have an unnatural name. Names like tree, people, America, those are natural names. Names that are generally not unnatural objects, groups, or other such things. An unnatural name would be something like, Brotherhood of Steel, or Soviet Union, or Team U.S.A.
So, here are my suggestions for the artificers.
Sons of Mana
Sons of Knowledge
Brothers of Anordin (Or some other such individual name, perhaps a founder of some sort.)
These names are assuming that the region is predominantly male. If it were ruled mostly by females then the names would be more feminine.
Runists:
Whle artificers are unnatural, runists are sort of freaks of nature. They are born with the power to control the energies of the mana but they have to still use unnatural symbols and chants like runes. I think the name runists would suit just fine.
Mentalists:
These guys are completely natural. Their naem should be natural as well.
Kindred
Manites
Terrans (That's a common one)
Lorinians
etc.

The Runists by nature are the darker of the three nationalities. Their skin can vary from a tanned brown to an almost chocolate colour which varries by tribe. Their hair is either a very deep brown or black which look almost the same, and their hair curles quite a bit depending on lenth. Their eyes are normally a dark brown colour, but occasionally someone may have grey. They are a more muscular people in general and are built heavier. Clothing consists of sandy coloured cloth which is very loose around the body and then tightened around the wrists, ankles, and wastes. While traveling the desert their heads are normally covered to protect them from the sun. Some also hide their faces in public.
>_> Edit as you see fit, Mekmek.

Do the names have to be original, Mekryd?
Bamerre is out of the book "The Two Princesses of Bamerre"
Personaly, I enjoy leaning towards original names. That way you never have a copyright looking over your shoulder.
Lilivillia is one you could try. Lilith means dark or phantom. Villia simply implies that you are referring to a city or village (I know that it is supposed to be spelled V-I-L-L-A, but the extra "I" just takes you farther from the norm)

I was leaning towards original, but so long as they're not blatant ripoffs of mainstream ideas, or named for carbon-copies/extremely similar places (like taking the name of a desert in an anime for the desert in an RP), then it's all fine.
That sounds like a neat name. Perhaps if we get a darker World going, then it'll be used. 3nodding

Well there is a name for a city I came up for a story I was working on at one time. I know now, however, that I will never finish this story.
So, if you would like to use the name, feel free to.
Then name is Svenali. It means 'Blinding Light' in the ancient tongue. A city forged from a grain of sand and the will of a silver dragon in three days.
But obviously I need not go into detail. It is yours if you want it. The name means nothing to me now.
