Sorry, is the joke that you spelled coupe wrong?

That’s a coupe. Coup is a wine drinking vessel.

Nah, you’re thinking of a coupe.

A coup is a liquid meal, sometimes useful for art if you’re weird enough.

I failed a brain check, I’ve been googling those names for 30 minutes. I don’t get the reference. What’s the joke here? I would have just taken it as cleaver naming for the region.

I think you meant astronomy. Astrology is pseudoscience horoscopes stuff.

Well, in this case all of those are astrology too as far as I know, and that might be more fitting for a fantasy world

Each one is a combination of ‘Celestial Object’ and ‘synonym for deer’. The first two seem innocuous and fantastic enough, but they establish the pattern - letting the third be ‘Starbucks’, a real-life coffee shop chain.

Starbucks is a real coffee chain that exists in the real world. Moondeer and sunfawn follow the same naming scheme, but the players didn’t realize that was what the DM was building to until the big reveal. It’s…pun-adjacent.

Yeah that’s what I meant by clever naming. I guess I was reading too deep. I thought it was referencing more.

The only issue I have with this jape is the first in the list might should be “moondoe.”

My world always has some strange puns and other characteristics. My favorite has been the Young Mariners Cobol Abode which is mostly populated with young sailors. One player was having a real hard time to understand why everyone there was asking if “he is a friend of Dorothy” and why people seemed a little on edge. It took about 30 minutes for him to realize he was in a gay bar and everyone was confused why he was there grilling them if had met a “handsome young well dressed half orc man”. They were looking for their rival and they just assumed it was his boyfriend. Everyone else slowly go to the joke and added on. Good times
