[QUOTE="Teflon Billy, post: 937902, member: 264"] Man...people seem to love comedy/pun names. I'd send you back and make you re-do them in my campaign ;) If anyone showed up to my D&D game with a "Hairybutt Beerguzzler" or "Zoobilee Zoobilee Zoo" or "Gimmy Lotzagold" (or really anything that was intended to 'lighten the mood' of my game while ignoring my campiagn's naming conventions) I would not be happy. Anyway, here are mine. They aren't funny :) [list][*][b]Vulnificus[/b]: My Flambeau Mage/Knight Crusader from my friend's [b]Ars Magica[/b] campaign. His mundane name: Count Vado Radaleszcu (he was Romanian). The Latin translation of the word[b]Vulnificus[/b] is [i]inflicter of wounds[/i]. [*][b]Zhandhalar[/b]: My Fighter/Barbarian from a different friend's 3E game. His barbarian tribe's naming conventions were that the person's given name was the first syllable of the name ("Zhan" in this case), the second syllable was the tribal affiliation ("Dhal") and the final syllable was a gender desriptor ( -ar for men, -ul for women). So the woman Mel from the Kord tribe would be named [b]Melkordul[/b]. [*][b]Red Meraxes[/b]: My red-half dragon from the first friend's munchkin-ass [i]Planescape 3E[/i] game. Jesus he was tough. [/list] more to come as/if I think of them [/QUOTE]
