[QUOTE="Xyrlove Woodsoul, post: 5434581, member: 86857"] I have a bunch of characters (20), and while I like all their names, I didn't want to make them too fanciful-sounding when they first started out, so I didn't add sort of honorary titles to their name. But now they are at the early levels of epic, and I don't think their names sound flashy enough compared to their power level and prestiege. I may not add honorary titles to all of them, but I want to do it for most of them, depending on what kind of feedback I get. I've already figured out a bunch of them, a lot of "Lords," "Sirs" but I'm stuck on a few, and if something comes up that sounds cool, then I will add something to their name. If not. No biggy, that is, titles may not fit, due to their class. I also want to run a few by you people to see whether or not some of these sound dumb. So below, I have a short list of characters and a little bit of info about them, namely, their name, gender, class, race, paragon path, and epic destiny, and god. (Note: in my campaign, I pretty much allow all the gods to exist). Any feedback would be appreciated. I looked on line all night, and couldn't find much, so i thought I'd give it a whirl, here. That is, I'm looking for honorary title for part of their name. Note: I looked in all the old dnd editions and couldn't find much. Note: I also want to keep them short. 1. Lo-kag (M): Goliath/ Barbarian(rageblood) /Dreadnought/ Indomitable Champion/ Kord I was thinking, Khan Lo-kag? 2. Phineas (M): Human/ Driud(guardian)/ Keeper of the Hidden Flame/ Demigod/ Silvanus I was thinking, Grandmaster Phineas ? 3. Stormlight (M): Elf/ Avenger(pursuing)/ Ardent Champion/ Chosen/ Erathis Should I just call him, Stormlight, Chosen of Erathis? 4. Syken Trevethor, a.k.a "Sorrow" (M): Tiefling/ Psion(telepath)/ Life Singer/ Demiurge/ Ioun ? 5. Torinn (M): Dragonborn/ Sorcerer(dragon) /Essence Mage/ Avatar of Io ? 6.
