I have the perfect name. I combined the names of many of the sea related, and the most unvisted area's of runescape to better up that mystery feeling about its name. The name i came up with was
Sasarim
. "Sa-saer-em" i broke it into 3 syllables like many of the other kingdoms like kan-dar-in.
Sasarim
is the perfect name it sounds almost relaxed, but the world you wish to press would have new, and unforgiving task's to discover. So this light hearty, and large world you would give us. Would have a name that is both welcoming, and surprising.

Continent Name Choices:
- Oblitus (Means "Forgotten" in Latin)

New Cities/Races:
1. Atlantis-style underwater city.
---Race: Gungan creatures (From the movie Star-Wars like Mod Reach referenced)
---(or) Race: Merpeople
2. Elite Warrior Culture (Like Sparta seen in the movie 300)
----Race: Spartans
----Notes: These could be found in Civitas illa fortis
3. Arctic City
---Race: Eskimos
---Notes: Make this area sorta like the desert where you have to wear certain clothing or else you get hurt due to the extreme cold.
4. Another race of elves that lives in large trees
---Race: Dark Elves
---Notes: Include a quest(s) that tie them into the other race of elves on the main continent. This could offer the opportunity to create the elvish city in Priffddinas. Maybe add new crystal equipment: Crystal staff for mages, crystal pike...1 handed...(as seen with Elf Warriors), crystal armour (platebody/platelegs/helm...possibly make these three untradeable?).
5. Asian/Eastern City
---Race: Samurai like the NPC in Port Phasmatys

New Content Ideas:
1. Adamant Dragons
---Combat Level: 304 (58 combat levels higher then the Mithril Dragon, which is 58 combat levels higher then the Steel Dragon, etc.)
---Drops: Elite Clues and Dragon Kiteshield attachment (Attach to Dragon Sq Shield to create the new Kiteshield). Make them extremely rare, like Dragon Full Helms.
2. Runite Dragons
---Combat Level: 361 (58 combat levels higher then Adamant Dragon...see above)
---Drops: Elite Clues and Dragon Platebody pieces (Attach to Dragon Chainbodies to make the Platebodies). Make them extremely rare, like Dragon Full Helms.
3. 1 Dragon Dragon (Named: Dragonite)
---Boss of all dragons
---Combat Level: 419 (58 combat levels higher then Runite Dragons...see above)
---Drops: No Idea, but something awesome! Maybe an elemental staff (It has unlimited elemental runes).
---Location for these new dragons: High up on some new mountain range. The higher you ascend the mountain, the harder the dragon

What about uber quest? Will everyone be able to do this quest? Or only advanced players? Will you need to complete this quest in order to access this continent?

Uber-quest is still very much in idea phase. It's a very very big project alongside a colossal project in the continent form itself. Something I'm still working on.

Does this not sound like the perfect time to include the quest that everyone secretly really wants??? One Small Favor part 2?? What better opportunity to make us explore every nook and cranny of this new continent than having to do menial tasks for the new denizens. Proud 28%er

Some new dungeons would be great!! maybe a new quest with a boss which we can go back and kill, sort of like corp just not as strong, give it a unique drop and make it a challenge for people to kill, a minigame with the elfs could be a good idea also, i love the work old school team does, keeping it to the players is great!!

I think the new content should be based on the lost city of Atlantis hypothesis. as bullet points, I will write what I personally believe should be added.

- A new point to enter the wilderness
- A new boss
- New sets of armer that would benefit both pures and defence players.
- New shops that sell items that are not sold in any other shop
- A new PK shop!! each time you kill a player you have not killed before you should obtain some PK points to be spent in a special PK shop!!
- New quests!
- A new skill for 07! something that doesn't affect combat, something that will actually be beneficial and something that unique to runescape 2007 only!
- A Portion of this new world should be F2P to encourage new players to become members!
- Some sort of zombie apocalypse mini game? who doesn't love a zombie apocalypse!?

Not sure if any of my ideas are any good? or if they will even be considered? Just throwing out some ideas that I personally believe will be a good idea!

Let me know what you think guys? would really appreciate the feedback!!

I think a cool new idea for a minigame would be something similar to say zombies from CoD or horde from gears, where you and a group of players must survive waves of monsters that attack. You could design maps with defendable locations, and maybe even implement different game types, one where you can enter with armor and get large amounts of supplies, or another where its a slower build up in difficulty, but players must collect their own resources and prepare.
