FAQ
How do I name a potion?
Pair a colour or feel word (Crimson, Murky, Glowing) with a vessel word (Draught, Elixir, Tonic). Add “The” for a named brew.
Should the name hint at the effect?
Often, yes — Verdant Tonic reads healing, Murky Venom reads poison. Use the effect filter to bias it.
Can I use these in a game?
Yes. They are ideas — keep a consistent naming rule so players learn your potion language.
How do I make it sound rare?
Rare-sounding adjectives like Azure and Glowing plus a vessel like Elixir give an alchemical, precious feel.
How do I name a potion?
Lead with the effect and a base word: Tonic, Draught, Elixir. Moondew Tonic tells the reader what it does and feels magical.
How do I make potion names feel consistent?
Fix a small vocabulary (tonic, brew, draught) and vary the modifier so a whole shelf reads as one apothecary's work.
