So I’ve been struggling to come up with two names, which is a bit different for me. The first name is the name of a land where magic is abundant and things are run by people who trade bits of their souls to do whatever the hell they want.

The second name is the name of the actual game. The players are called Arcanes and use a word that defines their soul to empower their magic. The game uses ridiculous names and titles for everything because everybody with that much power takes themselves way too seriously. Mostly the game revolves around the politics of a society which is structure around distracting Arcanes so they don’t burn up their souls trying to kill each other and everyone else around them.

Suggestions for these names are welcome, and I’ll probably post an update of the rules later this week,

  1. For the country name, why not take the name of any two or three countries/cities and mash them up, e.g. Alberia, Beradon, Canatain, etc.

    For the game, what about a name that is as long and ridiculous as the names of the Arcanes? Perhaps “A Treatise on the State of Our Glorious Land of Alberia and it’s Tribulations, Dictated by Her Grace, the Most Florid, Arch-Recondite of the Bibliological Vaults, Margaretha the Modest.”

  5. When I’m stuck for names I’ll search up name generators online. I don’t usually take the straight results, but I use them as a seed for my creativity. Note down the ones you liked and smash them up together.
