As some of you might know I'm busy writing a new book series (or at least trying to be busy writing), a sort of mishmash of the genres of horror/steampunk/alternate history, with vampires.

Now I'm trying to come up with a good name for my steampunk/anarchist villains and I have a few ideas. I like to know which one (or ones) pop out at you. The choices are:

1- Brotherhood of Revolution
2- Brotherhood of Salvation
3- Liberation Brigade
4- Society of Emancipation
5- Liberty Collective

I'm also open to suggestions.

Jonathan Chamberlain | 28 comments None very steampunk in style (don't really know what steampunk means!) - but I would have thought something more like 'Agitprop' ie LibSalve or LibRev Collective

Thanks for the suggestions. They may be a bit modern sounding for the Victorian era, but I'll keep them in mind.

Jonathan Chamberlain | 28 comments Ah! Didn't know about Victorian era. Society of Emancipation or Brotherhood of Salvation then.

Since it has vampires - maybe use the word thirst? Thirst for Salvation - or use blood? Blood Brigade....just an idea!

The faction is Anti-vampire (the vampires aren't exactly villains in the book), so I'm not sure they would use thirst or blood, but it's an idea to noodle around with.

Rhoda Baxter (rhodabaxter) | 4 comments Brotherhood of Salvation - very Gothic, with religious connotations.
Liberation Brigade - it's a nice Steampunky name. It sounds a bit jolly out of context, but in context it could be gritty enough.

How about 'Order of (something relevant)'?
Or, to mash up two of your suggestions - The Salvation Society.

Byron Wells (bwells) | 2 comments I like League of Revolution but if you like brotherhood how about Brotherhood of Chaos which keeps with anarchy theme

I like The Salvation Society and League of Revolution.

Or possibly League of Salvation?

Claude Dancourt (claudedancourt) | 10 comments Might not work for you, but what do you think of "Freedom in Blood"?

Claude Dancourt

Not bad, but might seem a bit vampire friendly.

Nora Weston (noraweston) | 15 comments I like Brotherhood of Salvation. Ideas? Let's see...maybe Brotherhood Insurrection or The Red Rebellion?

Not bad, something to think about.
