I've got an old school villain (no sg/no base/no double xp/run, ferry, chopper, jet pack everywhere) called Wendigo Montoya.

"My name is Wendigo Montoya. Yeah, you're in trouble now."

The English name was already taken, but picking a foreign language allowed me to take the translated name for a Mace/Rad Brute -- 'Steuerstab' (Control Rod).

Make him an eco terrorist.

"My name is Wendigo Montoya. You killed my fodder. Prepare to die."

Ronin The Barbarian. He wears the barbarian fuzzy diaper with the samurai armor and helmet and barbarian wrist spikes and has a giant axe.

Dammit, I just tried to create a character in game with that name to find out it was taken, so I checked this thread 🙂

Mine was going to be a Japanese version of Conan

Congratz on thinking of it first!

I don't know why it took me so long to remember this one, but on the advice of a master punner friend of mine, I once had a Bots/Dark MM who wore a sort of armor and had the skullish armored face mask and had bunny ears named Watership Doom.  Which, damn,  I may have to remake her, that was fun.

I just did an MSR on Indom with a Control Rodd tonight.

I have ... Celery. (Debating moving it over to my main account.) The bio:

 

 (Had to be done.)  The Hamidon knows it has to evolve to drive its takeover. So it started creating new forms.

Brutes that could beet its foes to oblivion. Some, it gave the skill to arti-fully choke its enemies. Don't ask about the kumquat. 

But Celery. Celery is aware. Independent. Cunning. Rebellious, it fights against its creator.

 

Celery stalks the night.

Bloody Weather (Ice/Storm). She has red (or where that's impossible, redish) powers.

 

I had others on live that were not that good, except for Pandamonium. A super strength panda.

I just created an air pressure-powered technology scrapper named Johnny Pneumatic.

 

EDIT:  Also a sun-powered energy/time blaster named Johnny Gnomonic.

My blaster on Live was Sgt. Glory B because the base name was already taken; now she's just Glory B.

 

My redside blaster is Triton Jaded, thanks to Dee Snider.

 

I had a huge controller (poweset forgotten!), done all in yellows, named Mean Mr. Mustard.

 

And a grav controller named Grav Bent Diebstall, thanks to the Stainless Steel Rat.

 

My first stalker, hat and Guy Fawkes mask and all, was named V. Endetta but got genned in a few weeks, so he became Count Q. (Count coup? Look it up.) He's back to the original name now.

 

My Rorschach was Walter Kovacs and got genned. They wouldn't let me rename him KOVAX. So he went under the monicker Mr. Celllophane.

 

I think I'll name my next stalker Behind You, if someone doesn't steal it.

 

ETA: B'Hind Yoo now exists on Excelsior shard. 🙂

I have a robotic Bots/Kinetics MM named Agent Buffbot.

She doesn't have any direct attacks from the primary.

But She can sure buff the bots that she has. (and any other team mates around)

Especially once she had gained Fulcrum Shift and Team Teleport.

I might have to look into Fold Space to see if it'll be any better.

I can see some situations where it'll work better than Team Teleport.

I have a few I can think of at the moment, two have a similar naming convention.

 

Mack Loud - BS/SD (should have done BS/Regen), but went with luridly mismatched Scottish clothing.  You will HOPE there is only one.

 

Just rolled a Plant/Poison controller tonight when I thought of the name, as was surprised and pleased when the name was available: Sue Mack.

 

Frigid Aeir - Cold/Ice Valkyrie

Max Moolah - Rad/Fire Broot who lives in a private suite in Pocket D

D. Kaye - former NY model, lost her career after an accident during a photoshoot at Terra Volta, now she is 8’ tall and a Rad/Rad Tanker

Arc Wielder - Electric Affinity / Beam Rifle Defender

I think I mentioned my Blapper at some point - played live and the only reroll of original powerset combos I have done - Nrg/Nrg Blaster - Blameau

Dr Phyll.  A NA/Water Def.  Pattern bald, and wears a suit.  Everything is green.   His skin, hair, suit, and powers are all green.

Legend Dairy.  A Water/Atomic Blaster.   She is a cow.  Her powers are colored white.

 

Touchdown Bundy.  A StJ/WP Brute.  His original name was  Al Bundy, but it got generic'd, so I changed it.  I roleplay him as Al Bundy, and often make comments about joining a team to get away from Peg.
Battle Cry is "Let's Rock!"

 

This is his bio:

 

 I'm the greatest athlete, after all I played High School Football and scored 4 touchdowns in a single game. A lot happens after you made the mistake of marrying a lazy redhead, had 2 worthless kids and spend 20  years selling women's shoes. One day, I was hungry after work and I knew that Peg wasn't going to cook something, so I stopped at a restaurant, hoping to get some food from the trash. After I walked in, a guy walked in with a gun and said this was a robbery. I didn't want to wait for the police, because then I would miss Hondo again. He then pointed his gun at my face. If someone puts something in my face it had better be food, so I brought out the Marines and Special Forces (my fists) and pummelled him into the ground. The restaurant then gave me a free meal and I was on the news. I realized that I could get used to this, so now I am a superhero.
