How a Cosmic Horror name can do the work of a setting in one beat
Every Cosmic Horror name in the wing is a seed, not a final answer.

The long tables are tuned for the most common combinations a writer needs at the next roll of the dice.

What scribes weigh when they choose which Cosmic Horror names to keep
Treat every Cosmic Horror name as a seed, not a final answer. Keep the sound if it works, change the ending if it feels too soft, add a title if the character needs authority, or attach a place if the idea needs history. The long tables are tuned for the next roll, the next draft, the next manuscript, the next cast.
Why a Cosmic Horror name is the part of the worldbuilding the cast carries home
Before you commit to a Cosmic Horror name, run it past these five questions the scribes keep at the long tables, and roll again if the answers do not line up with the tone, the era, and the role you are writing:
- Will the Cosmic Horror name sit next to real names, or only fictional ones?
- Is the Cosmic Horror name meant to sound tough, soft, strange, or noble?
- Is the Cosmic Horror name for a story, a game, a handle, or a brand?
- Does the Cosmic Horror name need to share a root with another cast name?
- Should the Cosmic Horror name hint at the setting, or stand apart from it?
