Garbage tidbits

Aldarron Wrote:heh. Garbage pit of despair of course. I just finished looking through it again to see if there were some place names I didn't recognize. There were three appearing as a part of the name of persons (like Terrence of Walworth). They are

Walworth
Stone Brook
Dinsbury

Are any of these familiar to anybody?

Great idea of minining this adventure for concepts Dan! I found another one as well:

* Fenstien

Of the names above, the only one I recognize is Walworth. Walworth is most likely a Duchy in Thonia or other southern lands. The Earl of Walworth was the persona of Gary Gygax in the Castles & Crusades Society...

For Dinsbury, I might suggest that as being somewhere in the Vales, as Monaca of Dinsbury is a druid. I see the Valemen as a Druidic folk.

Couldnt locate Stone Brook right away?


Quote:As an aside, (and Havard did you know this?) the authorities (governors, barons, whatever) of the Duchy of Ten are called Satraps. I'd guess that would be true of the Dot Peaks too.

Hadn't noticed that. Satrap is originally a persian term, but also used by Alexander the Great for his governors. A bit odd. Not sure what to make of it...?
