Share your Puns/amusing Character Names

This is a character I made back on Legacy when we Protectorites raided Justice, A couple dozen of us created characters based on a theme. I ended up hanging onto her all the way to 50.

 

Can you guess the theme?

So many players were confused when we just appeared and hung around WW doing nothing but emotes.

 

😁

 

The next week Justice raided Protector with a Hami theme, all bubblers, colour like Mitos in Talos. The devs joined in dropping Kronos and Jade Spiders and any number of Bosses on us. It was a blast.

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.

Master Meth Head  Thugs/Kin MM, a super powered punk with drug powers for his crew.

Kung Flu KM/WP broot,  he ate bat and cobra from China and gained his powers.

Moose Knuckle Bio/SS tanker, a serial cannibal, rapist, and robber not necessarily in that order.

Dr Stephen Tinchbourne, once a celebrated surgeon, but struck off for malpractice following the death of three patients in suspicious circumstances, due to his alleged negligence.

 

His life in tatters and reputation shot he was forced to seek work in the Rogue Isles, patching up the local scum and low lives for a pittance.

 

Then an argument with one of his badly wounded patients, a highly regarded Hellion,  who'd run afoul of some supers. Tinchbourne saved his life, but couldn't fix the life-changing injuries of his Hellion patient. Seems that wasn't good enough for the Hellions. They arranged for a mysterious witch to curse him one night as he worked alone in his makeshift theatre. Never mind he saved a Boss' life, he couldn't work miracles so he was cursed to continually bleed when he practices surgery.

 

Now he's back, seeking revenge, trying to find the witch that cursed him, the people that arranged it and get it lifted, by any means necessary.

 

Hellions, witches, and any scum who cross his path would do very well to fear the wrath of The Traumaturgist

 

 

There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator but only a fraction of people understand that.

Recently rolled up a Kin/Sonic def - themed as a loud, sketchy late-night pharmaceutical infomercial "doctor" - named Mycoxaphloppin. Do you need help getting your damage up?

I make all my characters start with Snark. Branding is everything 🙂
 

i tend to make names that are derived from the origin story. Snarkrot for my zombie tank. Snarkbot for my robot. Snarkbone for my skull headed wizard. Was making a mage tank the other day and looked at the latin word Arcanus for secret. I could use that. Typed in Snarkanus. Yep available. Hmm.  Wait a minute. Okay a little more research. Snarkanum. That was a little close lol

Punny names are the best names! I just started last weekend so I have yet to build up a proper stable of alts but I'm working on it!

 

-Hoodoo Doll, a Storm/Dark defender with a vaguely 40's look. Inspired by this clip.

-Sewerside Girl, a water/poison corruptor inspired by a certain it's-not-porn-it's-erotica website. She is, of course, a brain in a jar.

-Shenaniguns, a Dual Pistols.... something. I'm not sure what AT and pairing to go with yet, but I want to maximise the potential for... antics.

 

EDIT: I made another. Ruff Rider, time/sonic defender. Civil war uniform with wolf head.

 

I really like Ruff Rider 🙂

Finally got round to making my stalker: Staff/Ice Armor, uses that fish face and the usual "Creature from the Black Lagoon"-like costume pieces to become...

 

Frozen Fish Stick.

Getting inspired by meeting Incarnate Asada and Connie Asada in chat, I came up a couple of my own characters whose names are based on Mexican food:

 

Carnie de Vaca:
