Hi, all! Since this is my first post, I should introduce myself: I’m Dave Leung (he/his), and I started boffer larping at Legends around 2000. Played there for a few years; took a larping sabbatical; was tempted when WW formed but decided Nah; got back into boffer larping via the Winged Throne games (I played the last season of Prophecy 2; played in Prophecy 3, Covenant, and a bit of Evensong). I also played 2 years at Second Dawn and was most recently playing at Attaway. Lately, I’ve been getting into parlor larping, which is heavily influencing my bofferlarp playstyle. And now, with the pandemic quarantine, I’ve been musing about a WW character, woo!
Okay, so my questions:
1, since one only gets to be a complete newbie to a world once, I figure I might as well embrace it. 
So I’m trying to pick a place that is the boondocks. I was going to pick “coastal towns north of Sahren”, so if that’s a good contender, let me know. I’m not looking for “blasted wasteland nobody comes from”, but rather, “lots of small towns far away from political or trade centers, and not a tourism destination”.
2, if the answer to #1 comes along with established lore, let me know? I’m happy to build upon it. Similarly, if it’s more a case of “oh, please define the coastal town north of Sahren for us”, then woo! I’m happy to write up a few details, in which case, my only question is what pattern (if any) the town names follow (an eastern European naming scheme? Northern Africa? Southeast Asia? Central America?).
