Alternative Brands for the GoTverse
The GoTverse is primarily based on our own, real-life reality, but the brand names used in-universe are changed or warped. In some cases, the brand names refer to nearly identical products to their bases. In others, the products involved have significant differences as well.
Brands specific to the GoTverse, as well as their descriptions, include:
Crocoade — an electrolyte-replenishing sports drink marketed towards literomancers
Rabbit Kick — a juice-based energy drink popular among literomancers (likely due to the punny nature)
Kind Bear — a brand of plush toy and television characters known for radiating positive energy associated with the symbols on their noses
Call of Mollusca — a tabletop role playing game made for modern horror settings
Lapinfinder — a tabletop role playing game made for high fantasy, swords-and-sorcery settings
Badgers and Burrows — a popular board game with numbered squares where rolling a die determines whether players "dig tunnels up" or "slide down back into their burrows"
Gobble — a very popular internet search engine
Cavecord — a messaging and voice calling system used by the bats of House Chiroptera
Entertack — an image sharing and moodboard creation-based social media platform
Tom Wortons — a popular chain coffee shop in the Lapin Protectorate
Bennie's — a diner-styled chain of breakfast restaurants known for serving absolutely anyone
Starbuns — a popular global chain coffee shop. Known to be a quick but not particularly high quality source of caffeine in most protectorates
