A Shadowdark RPG Supplement

"A True Name is not spoken. It is enforced." — Madeera the Covenant

Every being has a True Name. Hidden beneath titles, masks, and flesh lies a word of power—written once, spoken rarely, and feared by even gods.

The Sealed Lexicon is a supplement for Shadowdark RPG, giving GMs two distinct ways to generate True Names for NPCs, monsters, spirits, and more.

  • Immersive Method. Build a True Name using the letters of a being’s known name (title, surname, or secret alias). Perfect for deeper lore and investigative play.
  • Quick d20 Method. Roll 4d20 and use alignment-based syllable charts to instantly forge a name that sounds ancient, alien, and dangerous.

Includes:

  • Full-page syllable tables for Lawful, Neutral, and Chaotic entities
  • Quotes from angels, devils, and primordial beings about the power of True Names
  • Lore for Vaelrix, the Unraveled, servant of Madeera and Keeper of the Lexicon
  • Simple, evocative rules that fit seamlessly into Shadowdark and other OSR systems

Speak the name. See what answers.

Designed for use with the Shadowdark RPG but easily adapted to most OSR games.
