Roll on a Formula table to pick a name pattern, then fill in the bracketed slots by rolling on Adjectives/Nouns (d100, via 2d10 — tens then ones) or the specialized Group/Ruler/Forest-Name tables. See the Naming Procedures rules page for the full generation prose, including how to substitute Terrain Synonyms for POI names based on terrain.",
