[Competition] Alliance name
« on: 13 Feb 2013, 05:09 »

I am in the process of forming a Sani Sabik alliance and already have a short list of names however I wish to add to this list. Where better than backstage to do so?  :yar:

The competition will end on Feb 20th and the prize will be 200m ISK. To win you just have to come up with the best name in this thread even if it is not used in the final alliance name.

Good luck and thanks to anyone taking part.

Wouldn't it be a little better if we get a slight overview of the principles/atmosphere of the alliance other than Sani Sabik, to find a proper name?

Such as will it be sani sabik or blood raider sect of the Sani Sabik. After all, all Blood Raiders are Sani Sabik but not all Sani Sabik are Blood Raiders. Though the corp name Blood Seraphim hints to Blood Raiders but yeah it'd be cool if you could provide some more details :)

Red Line (or The Red Line)

Possibly referencing blood trickling down a channel to be collected.  Could also denote a boundary not to be crossed due to danger, if the intent is to hold territory or dominate a region of space.

I see the alliance as an entity with ties to Blood Raiders but not aligned to Blood Raiders. I hope in future we can get our own system for example and create our own Sani Sabik oriented empire. The ties we have with Blood Raiders would allow us to aid our brothers in events and such but we follow our own path mainly.

I hope this helps?

That's a path quite a few take.  Silas is one of them, I think?

As for a name, consider going with something that has less to do with blood or the color red and has more to do with power.

Silas has openly announced Blood Raiders as an enemy. So slightly different in that we stand by our brethren in the Blood Raiders faction.

It still does not say what is the flavor of your corp.

If someone told me to find a name for a gallente corp, for example, I would be pretty confused. That's quite vague.

What are the core values of your alliance, its philosophy, its atmosphere, what gives it depth, what do people do inside ? I think this is one important thing to flesh out before launching any RP entity.

For a more religious oriented corp:
"Ordo Ascensionis" (Order of the Ascension)
"Via Interioris Fortitudo" (Way of the Inner Strength)
"Divini Sacrificii" (Divine Sacrifice)

For one that focuses more on expansion/PVP/holding space:
"Scarlet Imperii" (Scarlet Empire) or "Scarlet Regnum" (Scarlet Kingdom, in case you don't want to be as grandiouse)
"Ordo Vermiculus Coronam" (Order of the Crimson Crown)

Those are the ideas from the top of my head. I trust googletranslator used the propper declinations for the latin, as my latin is a bit rusty.

Well I did so before they relaunched the live events team in an instance of -awful- timing on my part.

OMIR WILL DIE

Hey live events are back, here's an IC representative to interact and plot with!

OMIR WILL DIE...less?

I've since buried the hatchet with the Blood Raider representative IC and we are copasetic for cooperation on several initiatives, as I might be with your group, depending how you want to play it IC of course. 

I'll see if I can find my list of names from before I formed Nobilita Nera
