Severity
Every entry is rated on a four-point scale from Mild to Extreme — based on how the word functions within its fictional world.
Mild
The words you can say in front of your parents. Fictional mild language tends toward creative substitution — the writers had to work harder to make something that felt like swearing without crossing a line.
47 entries
Moderate
The middle register. Strong enough to carry weight in a scene, acceptable enough to air before the watershed.
69 entries
Strong
Words with genuine edge. Strong fictional profanity usually carries cultural or social freight within its world — they land hard on characters and audiences both.
0 entries
Extreme
The words a fictional world reserves for its worst moments. Extreme entries carry the most worldbuilding weight — they reveal what a society considers truly unspeakable.
