Fellow PC with an unfortunate name

[Dioltach]

Wait is that a poem reference? (dies quick Internet search) By E Cooke?

By the Prince Regent, later George IV, actually.

Nuts. I'm not familiar with it.

Oh I forgot to mention he wields a spiked chain. Hmm, any snakey euphemisms for that?

Besides the aforementioned Andy Conda? Or do you mean for the spiked chain itself?

If it's the latter, I'd just say "He's overcompensating."

Heheheh- you said "nuts."

 

[Quickleaf]

Heheheh- you said "nuts."

What? I don't get it. Or are you just giving me a hard time?

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Or are you just giving me a hard time

I think you got the thrust of the joke!

Anyway, it's a real sausage fest in here...how much longer can we keep this up? More importantly, will we need to call healthcare professionals?

Oh, nurse....

Or you simply ask the player and DM to change the name to something more serious. Explain that it is spoiling your sense of fantasy.

Basically, there are two ways to handle situations like these. You can have a spot of fun with it, or try to tell a fellow player what to do. I wonder which approach has the greatest chance for a positive outcome...

Personally, I vote for fun (of course)... But if you go DragonLancer's route, sit down and collect your thoughts first- you don't want to go off half-cocked. Then write it all up in an email with a respectful tone. That way, you'll really see if the penis mightier than the sword.

Well, different strokes for different folks.

Personally pun names are fine. Our game isn't exactly beer n pretzels, but it's definitely on the more casual side. Still, if I was going for a pun name I'd at least put some more though into it than Biggus Dickus. Shoot even Lancealot would be better!

I mean what are we, a bunch of 13 year olds snickering at dirty jokes?

Wait....

 

[Patryn of Elvenshae]

Actually, we're a bunch of 30-year-olds snickering at dirty jokes.

It's somewhat depressing, actually. Especially given the way my wife tends to lead the race into the gutter.

I, for one, am at least 3.37 x 13 year olds snickering at dirty jokes.

Australian for "Keeper!"
