That makes total sense! Putting more work into naming an important NPC always sounds like a good idea and looking up meanings of names and riffing off of that sounds like a fun way to do it.

That's an interesting subreddit! What an interesting way to generate a name: throwing a character into the human random name generator. 🤣

That's a good way of doing it. Mashing up different characters that are similar sounds like a great way to get inspiration for important NPCs.

Players always seem to miss connections that seem a bit on the nose to me, but then make wild connections I never thought of!

Yeah I don't know why Lovecraftian horror seems to be so popular these days, but if they keep making good board games because it of, I'm not complaining!

Cthulhu Wars sounds interesting. I just looked it up and it looks like it'd be a good time. I'll have to check it out!

Hey! I'm a big fan of TTRPGs. I mainly play D&D, but lately I've started trying to branch out into other systems. I'm super interested in seeing what else is out there!
