I can't believe I got that name!

So I was thinking about moving my Ice/Water corr from Indom to Excel, but unfortunately his name, Chill Streak, was taken. So I tried a few names and held onto the ones I liked. I'll probably release the ones I don't use once I decide on the name and actually move him.

 

Names I got were:

 

Thrill Chill

Cold Blooded Chiller

Icewater Veins

 

Also while trying names I also got Time Chiller and Chilling Moon, so I'm starting a new Ice/Temporal Blaster and Dark/Ice Sentinel.

 

I have too many alts, I need to stop playing with the character creator.

Just did a random name check, and am stunned that on Everlasting, there is still no Elrond Hubbard.  Not taking it myself, so if anyone else wants to yoink it...

I have an alt named Elrond Half-Nelson, his bio says "Don't even try to keep up because he'll run rings around you!"

Those times you saw no footprints, I had Fly toggled on.

I had an idea while I was waking up for a time traveling fashionista.

Surely the name must be taken by now,

especially on Excelsior.

NOPE!

 

I just got Doctor Hue

 

Now to figure out what power sets and costume would look fabu while I am throwing shade.

Time/sonic (Screwdriver) Defender.

 

Don't forget the hat and scarf.

I've been revisiting Praetoria and just picked up Resistance is Futile and Resistance's Useless and was mightily surprised.

just got Praetorian Princess myself, very surprised it was available but speaks to how empty gold really is, a tragedy but still we got cool names bc of it

In an outbreak of altitis this last month, I snagged...

Thermovore  (Ice/Dark Brute)

Nega-Hertz (Elec/Dark Tank)/(Dark/Elec Sentinel)/(Dark/Rad Brute)-Torch/Ever/Excel respectively

Fro-gun (A Rifle/Ice Blaster)

Major Havoc (Elec/Ice Blaster)

Major Onslaught (Mace/Shield Brute)

Quantum Density (Axe/Rad Brute)

Sonic Flaer (Ill/Sonic Controller) (the last name is per background fluff which is almost as much fun to write as making the toon)

Can't believe Major Havoc was free. Good onya!

I got "Breakwater" on Everlasting after Marine came out, I was pretty pleased with that.

 

I tried a few names before that, and ending up releasing "Sea Worthy" on the Everlasting "Drop a name, pick up a name" thread.  I was happy to see someone decide to use it just recently.

I got Nun Sequitur on Everlasting. 😄 

I picked up Subliminal Messenger and Misfortune Cookie on Excel

 

do we need the name release thing?  probably not, but I'm not going to complain because maybe something else nice will open up for me.

Well, they've implemented the naming policy, 8 minutes ago now... and sadly NONE of the names I hoped to get are available... alas.

 

Sorry to hear that. I was only looking to nab 1 name on Torch and happened to get it. Now I'm just going to hang out in Outbreak and watch all the new character pop in and out.

 

Dislike certain sounds? Silence/Modify specific sounds. Looking for modified whole powerset sfx?

Check out Michiyo's modder or Solerverse's thread.  Got a punny character? You should share it.

I just picked up one I've tried for years to get:  Captain Wavy Hands

 

Kinetic Melee/energy Aura brute

 

Yes I know kinetic melee isn't great.  I'm past making meta characters and I focus on concept (because it's king) these days.

I managed to correct the names of some toons that I'd played extensively on Live and had recreated on Reunion:

+ Coulomb (previously "CouIomb" with a capital i in place of the L)
+ Ripstar (previously "Ripstar II")
+ Mighty Quinn (previously "Might E. Quinn")
+ Purple Lightning (previously "PurpleLightning")

Unfortunately "Unit Omega" and "Tejas" still weren't available; so those two are still sporting a few extra punctuation marks for now... but 66.7% success rate ain't bad! 👍

What kills me is, one of the names is even spelled incorrectly.  Condore was a character from my youth, when I made comics, but clearly didn't yet know how to spell.

 

The one that continues to sting is the Canadian Shield, which was my main, more or less, back on the live servers.
