chigiabelo Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 A long time ago during Live, The Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin was a favorite song of mine, so I named a stalker I made Diarrhea Jane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsoon Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 A significant portion of my character roster are at least partial pun names. AquaNyet - Russian Water/Electric Corruptor with a thing for American hairspray Beau Vine - Minotaur Plant/Thorn Dominator Crue Satyr - Sword-and-Board Brute Dee Nile - Egyptian Grav/Energy Dominator Gal Van Nuys - Shield/Electric Tanker, was named Tess LaCoille but someone else on Everlasting had already used the same pun spelled a bit differently Hack and Splash - Water/Ninja Blaster Holy Shoot - Angelic Pistol/Ninjitsu Sentinel with her celestial weapons Thoughts and Prayers Iron Ma'am - Energy/Invuln Sentinel, rule 63 Tony Stark with the serial numbers filed off Kinjitsu - Ninja/Kin MM, portmanteau of Kinetics and Ninjitsu Mai Grayn - Psi/Will Stalker Major Airhead - Arachnos Widow Major Hassle - Arachnos Soldier Mike N. Troller - Illusion/Rad Controller Mike R. Uptor - Pistol/Time Corruptor Miss Calculation - Bots/FF MM, pets named for mathematicians Miss Place - tri-form Warshade Miss Tell - human-form Peacebringer, often hears people say non-sequitur things but then they apologize and call her by name Officer Reid - Thugs/Elec MM, name is Miranda Reid, sort of a pun on reading someone their Miranda rights Pink Painther - Savage/Will Scrapper, gets big, pink, and furry when it's time for a fight Punky Bruiser - Street Justice/Will Brute, Blatant ripoff parody of Punky Brewster Rae Dee O'Active - Rad/Rad Tanker Reese Eikler - Zombie/Nature MM, minion pets are named Reduce, Reuse, Reanimate Rhea Dacted - Pistol/Martial Blaster, all other information classified Ri Poph - Earth/Earth Dominator, Blatant ripoff parody of Toph Bei Fong from Avatar Static Klingon - Axe/Electric Brute, using the Rikti axe since it's the closest thing we have to a bat'leth Two Hit Tudor - Thermal/Fire Defender, a play on One Hit Wonder combined with Victor Borge's bit about inflation Valhalla Back Girl - Mace/Shield Brute, modern-day Valkyrie, costumes based on Gwen Stefani's outfits in the Holla Back Girl video, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greycat Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 ... as just mentioned elsewhere, Rock Yew. Earth/TA 'troller. Yes, I was surprised. Now if only we had stone armor Sentinels. Primarily on Everlasting. Squid afficionado. Former creator of Copypastas. General smartalec. I tried to combine Circle and DE, but all I got were garden variety evil mages.

OldManMercy Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 On live, I made a spoof of the Hulk and called him "The Inedible Bulk". Turns out there's actually a character named the Inedible Bulk. Got generic'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZorkNemesis Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I managed to come up with and claim "Dr. Goh Riela" not too long ago. He's very much a super science ape.

subbacultchas Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 More than a few here. My favorite, now retired, was TooGhoulForSchool, a Savage/Radiation Brute. Back story was a 50s nerd who bought the Charles Atlas method to beef up. Tried to kiss his high school crush, and was pushed into a radioactive waste pond. He came back to life for his girl, and to know if he aced his science test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxsie Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Jersey Girl - a bovine tanker that was the creation of the Mad Cow King; her entire 'family' is bad bovine puns. Latency - a villainous bots/dark (repurposed to 'gravity') mastermind. Basically she's the most frightening thing to an online gamer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clave Dark 5 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Somehow snagged the name Knight Music, a Sonic/Dark troller (or is that a Dark/Sonic? I dunno). Never played anything Sonic before. Something of a basic tights look with a fancy helm with the Black Knight visor options, and a big black musical note 🎵 on his chest. Haven't done a thing with him yet, may want to reroll him into say a Defender. ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Don't bother with those farming chores...
