[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 6780567, member: 92511"] Aleena Bargle Gord Most of the following need an updating in look and renaming to something cooler, "Strongheart" in particular is too corny for a BBQ...could be his last name or an epithet or something, but they still make the list: The Good Guys: Strongheart (the human paladin) [rename] Ringlerun (the human wizard) Charmay (the human/female wizard) Mercion (the human/female cleric)...or use Aleena. Elkhorn (the dwarf fighter) Melf, though I think Peralay is a much more "elf" sounding name and would go with that...or rename entirely (or just use Gilthanus) (the elf fighter-mage) Northlord (human barbarian) I'd probably rename and keep "Northlord" as a title. Deeth (human/female fighter, "crusader" of some kind) I'd probably rename Figgin (halfling thief) Garn Greygaze (gnome illusionist/thief) Extended/second string Hawkler (human or half-elf? ranger...with a hawk!) in desperate need of a renaming. Silverrain (the elf/female fighter or ranger, not sure) probably rename...in today's parlance, could keep the name, make her a "wood elf", and keep Peralay as the "high elf." Aurelia (the human or half-elf, not sure, female ranger) Caruso (the half-elf bard) rename...I just never liked it. Filigree (the half-elf/female druid), I'd probably rename. It's a perfectly good name...but it's, ya know, a real thing. The Bad Guys: Warduke (presumed human fighter, I guess he gets to keep the corny name) Kelek (human, maybe half-elf?, wizard)...or use Bargle. Drex (human fighter..I might make him a dwarf to give the "good guy" demihumans someone, kinda, "on their [non-human] level" in addition to the stumpy half-orc. Zarak) Raven (human/female cleric) Helena (human/female illusionist) Zarak (half-orc assassin) Zorgar (human barbarian) Ogre King (an ogre mage, so a warrior-with-tricksy-magic guy, that obviously needs a new name and keep "Ogre King" as the title) Set it up like a He-man/MotU serial, Warduke (or Kelek) and his minions are out to bring evil/conquer the goodly kingdom of something cool/magical/niceguyland. A D&D Justice League [or for today's audience, an Avengers] defending the world, thwarting plots, inhuman (orcs, undead, demons) invasions, and seeking out dangerous objects/weapons/magics and powerful treasures...get Bruce Timm or the Avatar:Last Airbender guys on board and you have a hit.
