What intrigues me is why some people refer to it as Noniwrok, because I can see no logical reason for it.

As a player I call it Kisle (K-Isle), but in game my only character on that island doesn't really give it much thought, after all, there's no life off the island - is there? ;)

My favourite location to start is dependant on what that character has as an intial focus.

Noniwrowk is what it's called. All praise Klug.

Noniwrowk is the only name ever made up IC for it. (Though not many people outside Kirinn should think of it as an island - it's all they know...)

well, what I was trying to avoid saying was I thought Noniwrok was the game name for the Island, and was wondering how that came to be circulating as an IC thing, as there's no way of finding out IC.

(The Survivors have done a fair bit of recruiting for their exped, so I wouldnlt be surprised if many outside of Kirinn knew)

I could probably do it, but I'd offer people a chance to go and set up a colony wherever...and then sit for the next two weeks wondering what's wrong with their hearing. I sometimes get the feeling my characters are inaudible.

LOL Poor people... I had one on K-island and as stated a million times before, it wasn't a place for me. But if I get another one there it'll be a violent one, I promise.

Actually there aren't much places on Cantr I'd like to think about as a good spawn point. I've seen the three most known continents though of course not all locations (exept on K-island) and even if you're not supposed to use ooc knowledge it still affects the way you're thinking. It's hard to develop a character in a place where you have lived before through another character since you know the people there. That's the reason I wouldn't want to spawn for example in Sjoftich, even though none of mine have spawned there, two have spent a long time in there and old memories about the other characters can be confusing. I like the two big continents but seeing the same places over and over again is hard. There are still many sides of those continents I haven't seen so why is it always Blaman, Reniov or Brunoi area? (Always is exaggeration but my characters have been there a lot so even two in the same town feels like too much.) I've never seen Pok, Doryiskom, Longinazy, Moku and many other places people keep talking about. Heck, I haven't even seen Drojf! My characters travel a lot but obviously they don't want to see what I would (which is good, it's their lives, not some shady player pulling the strings to fill her own curiosity).
Then the newer / more rare islands. They are said to have too much animals. Even the Swedish island might today be a place impossible to survive without help from the elders. So some almost uninhabited place with.. I'm not sure if there are dinosaurs but I bet there's something worse than gorillas out there. Ok of course I wanna see new places. But a character spending his/her whole life running away from the beasts.. umm.. I had one of those and it was a bit disappointing.

i have 3 of 7 on the kwor southern fields island. it does get kind of hard keeping track of which characters know what. many of the older people on the kirinn forest island are known to all 3 of them so i have to remember what memories/opinions each of them have of each person.
in terms of spawning characters in the same place, that hasn't created any problems for me. my first character was spawned in kwor and my fifth was spawned there less than 2 cantr years later, but they eneded up really different. overall i actually like having so many characters on the east kol island since i as a player get to see many sides of the action that take place there.

i also agree that the KDS region is a good place to spawn because it's just an interesting place in general.

I guess I was lucky cause most of my 15 chars. were spread out pretty good.

So I had the chance to see many different areas. Only a few alwasy see each other. The others are very far from each other which makes things alot easier on me.

When I first started this account (realtively new one), 7 out of 15 were spawned in or within 2 locations of Olipifirovash. After having several of them deleted, even my replacements spawned in the same place; I am cursed.
