I decided to have this map include a number of "Lawful" related influences. Many, but not all of the settlements and monuments are related to entities of "Elder God" influence. "The Winged Polychromatic Rays of Scorching Judgement" might be some kind of Elder God avatar, construct, alien robotic entity or even mutant flying reptile. Whatever it is, the only thing I decided on was that it could breath a multi-spectrum of laser energy, meaning anything that was not completely immune to lasers/cosmic radiation/gamma rays would still take damage from this beast. The "Tower of Trancender of Terrestial Entanglement" could be a Sorcerer or Mad Scientist that found a way to access other worlds in some way. The "Dreadful Siphoning Shredder of the Unforgiving Rapids" is just the name I gave to the Shub Spawn who's stats are given for this hex. Monastery of the Adherents of the Crystalline Cognitive Ascendency (spelling noticed on map, will fix eventually) are a group of Psychic "Monks". The Sailed Harvester of Light and Flame is a giant mutant Dimetrodon that absorbs energy attacks. May have been drawn here by the existence of "The Polychromatic Rays of Scorching Judgement" to pester it in attempt to feed off it's attacks. "Hive of the Rapacious River Eurypterids" are a group of hive mind fresh water "Sea Scorpions". Think the Scorpiopedes from 2005 King Kong movie that attacked the raft prior to the giant swamp fish.

I love all of the names you've come up with. Do you use some sort of random generator, or is it inspired by black lotus brownies?

Probably closer to black lotus brownies...LOL. I usually get a rough idea in my head type a few words and look up synonyms till I get a good match of words that will work.

I'm about to run a campaign using a great deal of Carcosa material at my university, and these, along with the blank template for them and your Carcosa site as a whole, are absolutely great. Definitely got me in the right state of mind helped me visualize the twisted landscape of Carcosa better than before.

I always look forward to seeing new maps. No rush, of course.
