    Connection Audit Review all created entities and ensure:

    • •Every entity has at least 3-5 [[wikilinks]] in Connections
    • •Parent-child relationships are bidirectional
    • •Plot hooks reference other entities
    • •No orphaned entities exist
    • •Historical entities connect to current ones

    Validation Checklist:

    • • Every character links to their home settlement, AND that settlement links back to the character
    • • Every organization links to its headquarters, AND that settlement links back to the organization
    • • Every deity in the pantheon links to the pantheon, AND the pantheon links to all deities
    • • Every settlement links to its parent region, AND the region links to all settlements within it
    • • Every historical event links to its location, AND the location links to the event
    • • Every artifact links to its current owner/location, AND they link back to the artifact
    • • Flag any entity with 0 incoming links as "orphaned" - add at least 2 references to it

    Bidirectional Link Patterns:

    If A links to B as...B must link to A as...

    Cross-Category Links Ensure connections span categories:

    • •Characters → Organizations they belong to → back-link to Characters
    • •Settlements → Geographic features nearby → back-link to Settlements
    • •Items → Characters who own/seek them → back-link to Items
    • •History → Locations where events occurred → back-link to History
    • •Creatures → Regions where they live → back-link to Creatures
    • •Organizations → Settlements where they operate → back-link to Organizations
  4. •

    Connection Density Targets:

    • •Minimum: 3 outgoing wikilinks per entity
    • •Target: 5-8 connections per entity
    • •Incoming: Every entity should have 2+ other entities linking TO it
    • •Fix orphans: If an entity has <2 incoming links, add references in related entities

Naming Conventions Reference

When generating names for entities, consult these reference files:

Reference FileUse For
Templates/Reference/D&D Species Naming Conventions.mdSpecies-specific naming patterns (Dwarves, Elves, Halflings, Orcs, etc.)
Templates/Reference/Tolkien Naming Conventions.mdHigh fantasy linguistic patterns (Sindarin, Quenya, Khuzdul, etc.)

When to Apply

  • •During entity generation: Use naming patterns that match the entity's species, culture, or region
  • •For settlements: Name cities/towns using appropriate linguistic conventions for their dominant culture
  • •For characters: Match names to species (Dwarven names for dwarves, Elvish for elves, etc.)
  • •For geography: Use Tolkien patterns for rivers (-duin), mountains (-gor), forests (-taur), etc.

Matching Names to Tone

World ToneRecommended Naming Style
Epic FantasyTolkien patterns (Sindarin/Quenya for elves, Norse-inspired for dwarves)
Dark FantasyHarsher variants, Black Speech influences for villains
Sword & SorceryMixed cultural human names, simpler constructions

Low FantasyHistorical human naming patterns (Germanic, Celtic, Slavic)
