Name of your character... - Page 3

Alson · 11-11-2002, 03:16 PM

Maximus, Human Male Cavalier - "Humble, Just, Lawful and Good Willed". Inspired by the movie "Gladiator".

Mephisto, Human Male Anti Paladin - "Cold Hearted, Calculated Power Freak". Inspired by Diablo 2. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Alson, Half Elven Ranger/Cleric - "The Religious Ranger". The first time i completed the game.

Pullus Cor, Human Blade - "Dark Heart".

Taurus, Human Monk - "Fists of Fury".

And many, many, many Test characters, required for testing spells for the Spell Reference. May they rest in peace.

I tend to play the fist time with a random name (I have a random name generator, heh! It dates back to the days when we had a butcher as a Game Master, and character creation was daily routine... -_- ), just to get the hang of things.
Then I have some default characters that I adapt to each game:

Sarah, my kick-ass character. She's my game alter-ego, usually a fighter with some kind of magic power (fighter-mage, in BG)

Amedyr, a red-head elven magic user.

Blaid, a brunette human pirate. The list goes on and on, but these are the most common. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Right now I'm starting a game with a male character named Alain. He's a character from a shonen-ai I'm writing (long story)... let's say I wanna see how the Sola mod is going to behave... [img]smile.gif[/img] )

Lord Lothar - Solo Cavalier (WarCraft 2)
Orgrim Doomhammer - Half Orc Beserker (WarCraft 2)
Krogthar the Insane - 2 Barbarians (random thought)
Salman - Almost every other person that I have made. (Hey, it works for me [img]smile.gif[/img] )

One of the easiest ways of finding names for characters is to use surnames from real life. At lot of pro writers use this method. I prefer to name mine after Polish rock bands circa 1974 - 1985

So what bands would that be???

McHaggis · 11-12-2002, 09:38 AM

I usually just make something out. Or I may alter names of book characters. Here's couple of what I have used (or are being used):

Reigan Twat (Fighter/Mage/Thief, half-elf)
Ermon Steelfist (Monk, human)
Elthas Athlin (Bard, elf (cheated to get elven bard [img]smile.gif[/img] , but hey, nobody's perfect

))
Jales Ahqinth (Sorcerer, elf)

Probably more but cant't think anything else right now..
