To facilitate discussion of these scales, [[Cryptic Ruse]] has ascribed them names based on H.P. Lovecraft's "Dream Cycle" mythos. The 2\13-based heptatonic has been named "archeotonic" after the "Old Ones" that rule the Dreamlands, and the 5\13-based octatonic has been named "oneirotonic" after the Dreamlands themselves. Modes of the archeotonic are named after the individual Old Ones themselves; modes of the oneirotonic are named after cities in the Dreamlands. | To facilitate discussion of these scales, [[Cryptic Ruse]] has ascribed them names based on H.P.

A 7-nominal notation is proposed, using the letters A-G. The "C natural" scale is proposed to be degrees 0-2-4-6-8-10-12-(13), with the note "C" tuned to a reference pitch of concert middle C. The modes are laid out in the following table, excerpted from an unfinished paper on 13edo. | A 7-nominal notation is proposed, using the letters A-G.
