That website is pretty cool. Bookmarked. :smallsmile:

Hey, that's one of mine! I'm really glad you like it.

I could actually use some advice, from anyone who's interested. I made this new generator: http://chaoticshiny.com/clmashupgen.php

I think some of the names it comes up with sound like faction names, or like the names of members of a faction. And I've never really loved the faction names that the faction generator comes up with. Do you think I should change the faction gen so the names it comes with are more like the Class Mashup names? Obviously it won't come up with Technoknights and whatnot, but Circle Witch of Warding and Sacred Druid-Knight of Mysteries both sound like they're members of groups.

That sounds like a good idea.

Swordgleam, your city generator doesn't give a name nor do you have a city name generater. Might want to think of that.

That's a good idea. Do you think I should use something similar to the fantasy name generator, or make a more city-focused one with suffixes like -shire and -ton and that kind of thing?

[Hat-Trick]

A more city-focused one, personally. I love some of your generators, including the writing exercise one and was using the others to give me material, but when I was looking for a city, I couldn't get a name.
