Downhang is based on Real world, but actually SRo is combination of different cultures, Like what does has Medusa to do with Silkroad, isn't it from Greek Mythology?

I've been Wondering that is Roc based on Real History?

You think there might be earth ghosts inside those caves? Could that be why that section of the cave is restricted to the public?

JuelzSantana Don't listen to them. They are just trying to troll you. There is no such thing as silkroad. This game has nothing to do with real life. They will link you to websites that seem very convincing but they are all fake. Don't you think if there were stacks of hay walking around we would hear it on the news? If there was a big dragon named Roc the world would have been destroyed already. If there were actual thieves in the world wouldn't everything be taken already? I mean, Don't you think you would see someone with burnt hands with all the fire nukes that have been thrown..? Don't you think if a group of people had the power to charge a 20% tax that the entire city would be poor? Its all fake Juelz, Its all fake.

this is all you need to know about the real silk road.

the basic layout and idea of the game is biased on history, the rest is Mythology and just added to make it a game.

The Roc is based on a Mid East legend. See Marco Polo

Here's the Roc article (other link was broken in a way)

Apparently he's white and eats elephants.

I wish it would eat bots :(

Roc began life as a normal television sitcom, chronicling the ups and downs of Baltimore garbage collector Roc Emerson (Charles S. Dutton), a tightwad who constantly brought home "perks", i.e. items thrown away by residents on his route; his wife Eleanor (Ella Joyce), a registered nurse; his father Andrew (Carl Gordon), a retired Pullman porter; and his womanizing younger brother Joey (Rocky Carroll), a ne'er-do-well musician who had recently returned to the neighborhood. A much-played scene during the series' promotion featured Roc greeting his returning brother with a casual glance and a tired "Hey, Joey." When Eleanor suggests that he should have more to say, Roc agrees, and follows up with "Hey, Joey, where's my money?"
