RHoD - villan renaming HELP

[Sidekick]

Hi there guys.

I've recently been told that a large proportion of my group have already fought all of the Wyrmords from the RHoD in another DMs campaign.

Fine I knew that and have changed their classes around (Koth is now a Warlock, Saarvith a Ranger1/Dragon shaman6 etc).

HOWEVER he also used their names, so I've got to change those too!!

I've been thinking about it and got nowhere - truth be told I'm rubbish at making names up and have had some fairly bad experiences in the past with my group taking the piss.

So it is that I turn you you guys - help me with some names please!

Here's the list of names that I need changed (and their new classes for anyone who's interested).

Wyrmlord Koth = (bugbear warlock)
Wyrmlord Saarvith = (goblin ranger1/dragonshaman6)
Wyrmlord Ulawai = (hobgoblin beguiler)
Wyrmlord Kharn = (hobgoblin warblade)

Cheers in advance,
Ben/Sidekick

I have a habit - whenever I have four or more NPCs that I have to keep track of, I name them in alphabetical order. A, B, C, D... it makes it much easier for me to keep track of, and the players haven't noticed yet.

That is absolutely brilliant !

I haven't played/read RHoD, but is it a given that the players will learn the names of the wyrmlords before fighting them? As a player, you often realize that you're fighting a named character, but until you loot the corpse afterwards and find his journal, you don't know what his name is. If the players have no chance of learning the names before fighting the entire set of wyrmlords, there is no problem and there is a possibility the players will think it interesting when/if they learn the identities afterwards.

Wyrmlord Koth = (bugbear warlock)
Wyrmlord Saarvith = (goblin ranger1/dragonshaman6)
Wyrmlord Ulawai = (hobgoblin beguiler)
Wyrmlord Kharn = (hobgoblin warblade)

Koth -> Shatrugh
Saarvith -> Kaikeyi
Ulawai -> Kousalya
Kharn -> Jatayu

Stealing PCs alphabetical order idea, and shifting it a bit downward, using L, M, N, and O.

Wyrmlord Koth = Wyrmlord Lhaargn (bugbear warlock)

Wyrmlord Saarvith = Wyrmlord Mittrek (goblin ranger/dragonshaman)

Wyrmlord Ulawai = Wyrmlord Ngath (hobgoblin beguiler)

Wyrmlord Kharn = Wyrmlord Otouro (hobgoblin warblade)

Well, you can even go as far as push each letter one place down, consonants to the next consonant, vowels to the next vowel:

Wyrmlord Koth = Wyrmlord Luvj (bugbear warlock) (pronounced "Leewveesh")

Wyrmlord Saarvith = Wyrmlord Teeswowj (goblin ranger/dragonshaman) (pronounced "Teesoosh")

Wyrmlord Ulawai = Wyrmlord Amexeo (hobgoblin beguiler) (pronounced "Amehshoo")

Wyrmlord Kharn = Wyrmlord Ljesp (hobgoblin warblade) (pronounced "Lee-eshp")
