Architecture of Power
Ready to name your fortress? Ask yourself:
- Is the location a holy abbey, a military bastille, or a natural cavern?
- What primary element—stone, mist, or iron—defines the dungeon's theme?
- Does the name suggest a place of refuge or a site of ancient tragedy?
- Should it sound like it was built by humans or something more cosmic?
- How will the name appear as it fades onto the screen upon entry?
