D&D General Group Names: What to Say When Everyone Picks the Same Class

[Umbran]

A godel of sorcerers.
A pewing of warlocks.
A choleric of wizards.

To reference Gödel, but not Escher or Bach, seems like a missed opportunity.

 

[Snarf Zagyg]

Thank you! Sometimes I feel like I just put stuff out there for my own amusement.

But it has to be a single name. Unless .... there is a collective noun for a collective noun? Who will guard the guards?

 

[Umbran]

Thank you! Sometimes I feel like I just put stuff out there for my own amusement.

But it has to be a single name.

I mean, I'd go with a gödel of wizards, an escher of warlocks, and a bach of sorcerers...

But that's just me.

I've only just discovered this thread! For funsies, I asked ChatGPT what it thought. Here's what it picked:

Classes​

1. A fury of barbarians
2. A melody of bards
3. A congregation of clerics
4. A grove of druids
5. A shield of fighters
6. A stillness of monks
7. A vow of paladins
8. A trail of rangers
9. A shadow of rogues
10. A surge of sorcerers
11. A pact of warlocks
12. A tome of wizards

Species​

1. A legacy of dragonborn
2. A forge of dwarves
3. A grace of elves
4. A spark of gnomes
5. A hearth of halflings
6. A harmony of half-elves
7. A strength of half-orcs
8. An ambition of humans
9. A shroud of tieflings
10. A blessing of aasimar
11. A mischief of goblins
12. A legion of hobgoblins
13. A horde of orcs
14. An echo of kenku
15. A curiosity of tabaxi
16. A tide of tritons
17. A coil of yuan-ti

It came up with the list of species on its own. When I pointed out that it had chosen "shadow" for both rogues and tieflings, it suggested "shroud of tieflings" or "whisper of rogues" as alternatives.

It also came up with a little description for each one, which I have omitted from these lists. For instance, it chose "legacy" for dragonborn because they are "Proud, honourable, and tied to ancient draconic heritage."
