The Name
Grimoire
A living spellbook of names. Ask it for an elf, a dwarf, a tiefling, a tavern at the end of the map. It inscribes each name with its meaning in the old tongue, and never deals the same page twice.

What makes these names different
Every name in this grimoire is built from the old tongue: real elements with real meanings, joined by the sound-rules of each culture. When the book writes Aelwen, it tells you it means "twilight maiden," and how to say it aloud at the table without stumbling.
The grimoire deals names like cards from a shuffled deck: your deck, remembered between visits, so you are never handed the same page twice. Choose a tone, noble, wild, or dark, and the book obliges.
Keep the names you love and the grimoire holds them as bookmarks. Everything is free, and every name is yours to carry into any world that will have it.
