Barbarian clan names

God of Kings · Feb 25, 2021

It would be great if there were a list of barbarian clan names.

Tiger Fang and Badger Claw are two that I know of.

One Eye and Yellow Goat for me!

There's Storm Cloud.

According to Andrew in another thread, there's like 5 (IIRC) names per barb clan type, so listing what names belong to what type would be nice too. I'll go ahead and look thru the files to see if i can find the full list.

Yep renamed all of them already. Tiger Prawn sounds much tastier.

I did wonder about "Night Thunder". Is that a euphemism for farting in bed?

These names are awful. Should have gone with historical names like Huns and stuff

Well, @Andrew Johnson [FXS] gave a reason as to why they did not use Historical Peoples.

Andrew Johnson [FXS] said:
There's no immediate way to tell. The names should be evocative of the clan type (your Bent Tree is a hills clan - admittedly not entirely clear, but I'm imagining rocky, scrubby hill pine), and the icon is linked to the name. There's a little system - rocks, hills, stone = hills. Storms, sky = rover or chariot. Certainly all the sea clans are named something nautical. But the Fire Ants (jungle)? The Setting Suns (hills)? There are about five clan names per clan type, so after a few games you should be able to identify them. We toyed with using historical names (Moken, Bugis, Woku at sea; Jurchen, Hun, Xiongu on horseback; Wa, Picts, Tamang in the hills), but balked at identifying even historical peoples with the category of "barbarian." The geographic/animal feature seemed to fit more with the "Carlbarian" idea rather than actually creating thirty new "mini-civs" (there is a lot involved in researching/clearing civ choices). But we still wanted to have a bit of personality, so it's not just going to be "HILL DUDES"

Stone Kite sounds like ancient groupies for Led Zeppelin... the first barbs I met were Setting Sun, and they were next to Japan, so, fitting.

We simply couldn't tie "barbarians" to present-day groups, or groups that saw themselves or might see themselves or might maybe could possibly see themselves as linked. The concept of "barbarian" is so much of a game concept, not a real-world concept. But check the Civilopedia - I've got discussions of "non-state" people in each zone.
