==Character Naming==

You may name your character whatever you wish, as long as you observe the following: Please do not name your character anything intentionally derogatory toward any person or group. Also abstain from the use of expletives, and sexually explicit names. 

For example: Detailing the town harlot's character is acceptable, but her name should not be an anatomy lesson unto itself.

Also, though it is fine and modestly encouraged to include puns for a historical, legendary or mythical nature: please avoid completely whimsical names, unless doing so is for the intentional introduction of irony or in-setting historical incident in the game.

For example: naming a high mountain precipice ''Last Gasp Peak'' might be fine if this area's back-story includes someone who died of altitude sickness. But, naming a character ''Bob Bubblehead'' or ''Jack Cass'' is not.

Creating a quality name for a character can be difficult, and sometimes downright frustrating. Many a game player has had the experience of generating statistics and back story for a character, then staring blankly at the ''Name'' field of the character sheet. If you have this problem, you are welcome to seek the aid of name-generator. There are are a few good name-generators on the Internet here are some links:
