Kingfisher Name Gen Replacer

Swaps out your name-generation files for a set inspired by the works of T. Kingfisher/Ursula Vernon, with simpler weapon names and more unconventional surnames.

The primary source for these is Kingfisher's paladin universe (Clocktaur War, Saint of Steel, and Swordheart series), but I've dipped into some of her kids' books written as Ursula Vernon as well. (And if you haven't read those books but are going "wait, that name sounds familiar ..." yes, UV wrote some of the comics in vanilla Wildermyth, notably the een-chanted turtle.)


* Characteristic Human Names: Hetty Bee-of-Gold, Jep Hangnail, Aster Bearcat
* Characteristic Place Names: Tickmadrone Timbers, Crumpet Shutters, Orcustana
* Characteristic Weapon Names: Sharptongue Gallwand, Aukpike, Traitor's Slicer, Pointy Bob


The game seems to only work from one set of namegen files at a time (theoretically, whichever loads last wins) ... but I have found that you can create interesting mixes by going into "options" and changing out whether your name-gen mod is loaded in mid-game. The function that makes adjacent tiles more likely to generate similar names (and lets your heroes talk about nearby places accurately) will preserve some of the words from whatever was loaded previously.

(By the way ... I enjoy original-flavor Wildermyth names a lot, but I LOVE making random generators, so if anyone has ideas, requests, etc. for themes, please drop me a comment. There's also an idea thread going in the Discussions tab on my Small Creatures Name Gen Replacer mod.)
