Ooooooooooh yeah... lots of street cred there. I responded to that name just as I assumed a fixer would "Mr... yeeeeeeah. Get out of my office." Eventually the player chose a name that was credible fror somebody who wanted to be taken seriously. Guido Wop. Not only really unfunny, but also uncharacteristically racist. A character in a Vampire: Dark Ages chronicle, IIRC. Giovanni. The player was warned about their choice of name. The Prince (also Givoanni) was a little insulted. It didn't help when the player decided to 'ham it up' by introducing a pair of Ghoul retainers named 'Whoosa Wop' and 'Ura Wop' respectively. Kack! Kack! Kack!Homer Segsual, the flaming gay, Greek swordsman (portrayed, oddly enough, by a flaming gay man of Grecian descent). Would have actually been a cool character if not played like a complete stereotype - it ended up being the player's 'everything is a gay joke waiting to happen' attitude that got him ejected from the game, rather than Homer's actual name or sexual orientation (which could have been overlooked). Dick Master. From beyond the mists of time, I summon thee. A Doctor Strange rip-off in a supposedly serious Marvel Superheroes campaign. The property of the very mysterious, pagan grief player, who 'put a hex on me' when he was ejected from the game for repeatedly attempting to summon 'peenar demons'. But nary a drop in the pan compared to...CAPTAIN <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />! This wasn't actually a character in one of my games, but in a game that friend ran. The good Captain was intentionlly designed to cause a female player grief in a Hero system (Champions) campaign. 4d Spooge Entagle Attack! 'Nuff said.</blockquote>
