Welcome to the Wizard101 Message Boards

I lived in London for 12 years and have noticed many name similarities in Marleybone to what is in London.

1. The name "Marleybone" is based on a district/ housing area in central London called "Marylebone" (notice the slight name difference)

2. The Commons area of Marleybone "Regent's Square" is based on "Regents' Park, a park in central Marylebone.

3. Barkingham Palace and Wolfminster Abbey are based on "Buckingham Palace" and "Westminster Abbey"

4. Upon ending Chelsea Court, you are asked to meet Sherlock Bones and Baxter in 221B Barker Street. In London, 221B BAKER Street is the former house of Sherlock Holmes and now home to his museum. It is located at the East base of Regent's Park.

5. There is an actual Hyde Park, Chelsea Court is a district in South- Central London referred to only as "Chelsea", same goes for Kensington Park, it is a district in the South Thames district on London only referred to as "Kensington"

6. Digmoore Station can either represent London's central rail station (Waterloo) or the Heathrow Airport

7. There are not as many clock towers in London as there are featured in Marleybone however :-)

~Marleybone greatly relates to life back in London and uses some dialog in the story that relates to everyday life. There are probably many things I have not been able to relate yet, but im looking ~
