Setting Information
Naming Conventions
The names of residents of Rotter and the game world in general tend to fall into two categories. The first category includes names that would sound "normal" to 20th century residents of the real world (e.g., Bob, Sam, etc.). The second category includes names that would fit in the world of the Black Company novels by Glen Cook (e.g., Ghoul-Face, Barker, One Eye, etc.).
Characters with more traditional fantasy names (e.g., Alyanna Silverbow, names with lots of apostrophes that sound like a Klingon choking, or unpronounceable strings of consonants) may be looked at as strange by the residents of the game world.
