Knights & Knaves Alehouse

Need help with coming up with a name for a city on an Isle of Sorcery in a fantasy world which is similar to 10th century Anglo-Saxons in culture and technology.

How about Cenricburg

This is a remarkably clever name, and I'm really impressed with how apt it is. I hear echoes of a Tolkein reference (Gald = Galadriel) and a Lovecraft reference (Dun = Dunwich). The three syllables bring to mind mystical places the Saxons would have heard about, Avalon, Tintagel, Camelot. Go with this.

Glad you like it!

It's probably worth noting that "galdr" and its variants refer to magic/sorcery.

I like it as well. Once I have the map done I will post it up here

Gol'dang Galdredun I tell you what

Here is the first of several panels. Once they are all done I'm going to stitch them all together. This one still needs all its labels.
