It's been a long, strange trip.

We began Bad Business a while back to do two things: To remove the old evil city (The Catacombs) and create a storyline and background for a new Evil City. The idea behind the storyline is to tempt people to the island, to make them feel as if they were a part of its construction.

EDIT: Alright, a poll has been added! You may vote for how many names you like. Next Tuesday the new name will be released along with the island itself.

Which, in a way, you all are.

We need a name for the new evil island. We need something catchy. Something that...Rolls off the tongue.

So...Give your ideas. The person who comes up with the winning name will have their name immortalized on the island in a...Very special way.

Some things to keep in mind while crafting the name:

The queen of the island has 'ash' in her name.
The island is in Northrend.
The island has a temperate climate.
The island was established by necromancers.
The island used to be a Scourge research base.
A coalition of Darkshire and Stonard orcs/humans helped establish the island.

Please keep your submissions serious. Post your ideas below. The GMs will vote on the best before we add a poll to this thread, where you all can vote together on the best name.

Sincerely,
The Management

Just... one second first!

Quote:A coalition of Darkshire and Stonard orcs/humans helped establish the island.

Quote:The island was established by necromancers.

Quote:Darkshire.

Quote:Necromancers.

Not to be a bother, but I'm 102% sure that anyone from Darkshire will never work with a necromancer. Ever.

I digress. It's original name is rather nice. Bloodmoon Isle.

Some others:

Duskwither Isle (;P)
Bladefall Island
Bloodhaven
Lightfall Retreat
Deadlight Refuge
Ashwall
Boneswell Coast (maybe for the area around it?)
Hell's Spike

Sincerly,
Not The Management (:D)

The bones of Ashleaf.

Originally, it was going to be Ashshire, but just say that outloud to yourself.

You'll see how it plays out soon enough.

Cadaver Consortium,
Infernal Isle,
Revenant Retreat,
Spectre Solace,
Haunthaven Hollow...

The alliteration was unintentional, at first...

Due to the high amounts of viking influences in that area of Northrend.

I concede to this genius.

Ashwither Isle
The worlds a roller coaster,
And I am not strapped in,
Maybe I should hold with care,
But my hands are busy in the air.

Like Father, Like Son. The path of a Beastmaster.

Xigo! The Shadow Flame doesn't exist, it's just a myth.
