How are you Roleplaying your Thugs as heroes ?? See my thugs/empathy for my own hero concept, but basically a working class hero who inspires them to fight for justice is my concept. It’s true that the thugs are rough around the edges, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be good people underneath. Otherwise maybe think of something your hero would use to coerce them. Although that can quickly descend into villainy if you are t careful. (I have another thugs MM called Casino Gold, and yes he is super rich and pays them). Both characters are more vigilantes, taking the law into their own hands. Retired, October 2022.

StrikerFox Posted November 5, 2021 Posted November 5, 2021 I named thug pets after characters from the tv show Welcome Back Kotter. Thugs are Kotter/De Labarre, Arsonist is Horshack, Enforcers are Epstein/Washington and the Bruiser is Barbarino. I've been using the Pacific Rim, Jaeger name generator to make names for some other pets. It will come up with names like Tango Gypsy, Stellar Enigma, Rattler Horizon etc. Pretty unique names. There's also a Kaiju name generator that fit Demons, Beasts or Necro pets quite well. Search for it on Google, there are several. 1 2

Force Redux Posted November 5, 2021 Posted November 5, 2021 My Thugs/Time is named Time Bandit, and she's essentially an dimension hopping Oceans Eleven with her crew: Chain Dog, Snake Eyes, Candy Man, Smokey Joe, Ace and Cowboy. @Force Redux on Everlasting ----- (read my guide) ----- Gather the Shadows: A Dark Miasma Primer for Masterminds
Tacheyon Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 I made a Thugs/TA with a Robin Hood theme. A Thug/Traps that is a more Neighborhood Watch/Community Outreach person. A Rich Girl who bought her own gang and some "Hot Gloves" and is trying to be a social media influencer by stopping crimes (my Thugs/Thermal) I also have a more Anti-Hero with a Thugs/Poison who was experimented/created by the Crey Corp and escaped to be found a local gang who now are trying to take down Crey by any means necessary. There are plenty of possibilities sometimes you do have to think outside the box for them...but they are there. 1
ZorkNemesis Posted November 6, 2021 Posted November 6, 2021 I have a Thugs/Sonic heroic MM by the name of Garage Band. I treat her as the lead singer in a crime fighting punk rock band while her thugs are her bandmates and road crew. 2 1 2 Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.

tidge Posted November 29, 2021 Posted November 29, 2021 My Thugs MM is a "Sweet Little Old Lady" accompanied by her boys. 1
StrikerFox Posted November 30, 2021 Posted November 30, 2021 I'm thinking about making a Ninja MM from outer space. Yes, space ninjas. Creating Star Wars-esque names by using regular words, but spelling them backwards. Examples: Open door = Nepo Rood Dinner table = Rennid Elbat Oven mits = Nevo Stim Red sandals = Der Sladnas Vanilla cake = Allinav Ekac Broken mirror = Nekorb Rorrim Civic Racecar = Civic Racecar... Wait, what?! 3 1
JnEricsonx Posted November 30, 2021 Posted November 30, 2021 My guy was a former gang member, went into the military, got out, got betrayed by his former guys and tortured with chemical injections, causing him to be able to create poisonous substances, but the guys who were always loyal to him jump ship and now work with him. Leaning more towards anti-hero because they have no problem breaking bad guy limbs or shooting them.

Grim Bacon Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 I just made Eddie (Iron Maiden's Mascot) as a Thugs/Dark. Bruiser = Bruce Dickinson Leuts = Steve Harris, Nicko McBrain Minions = Dave Murray, Adrian Smith, and Janick Gers His first costume is as close as I could get as I could to Killers album cover. I'm planning to make a stranger in a strange land cover, and several others as I figure them out. 1

oldskool Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) Two of the most memorable names from playing live involved MMs. True heroes of inspiration. One MM was a Thugs/Storm character where the "hero" was a pornstar with a NSFW name. The thugs were her bodyguards to keep away fans. There was an entire backstory around the name, powers, and the thugs. It was just so... "chef's kiss'. The player was hilarious af to talk with. Edited December 3, 2021 by oldskool 2

Phigment Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, a local union group of electricians from Paragon Power Company were forever changed when the Freakshow attacked in Kings Row, while they were performing repairs on a couple of power relay stations. Most notably, I was changed when I gained the ability to manipulate electricity (EA) and the rest of the boys were just pissed off so we've hit the streets for some pay back.

Marshal_General Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 I made a thugs/traps MM who is a mafia princess and is the niece of Emil Marcone. She has the idea to be some sort of hero and is dragging her body guards around with her. I named her Capo Girl.
Hardboiled Hero Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 My Thug/empathy MM is Mama Heart. She's a girl from the hood who became a social worker, but she realized that sometimes a person's got to get violent to protect others from violence. I really haven't played her that much and haven't fully forged her story though.

My Thugs/Kinetics MM Godfather has lackeys with the following names: Boss: Luca Brasi, Lt's: Michael and Sonny, Minions: Clemenza, Carlo, and Fredo(the Arsonist). We do good deeds by not doing bad deeds, capiche? I tried to warn Baracuda about Luca Brasi, but she didn't listen...

I have a Thugs/Traps who's very similar. She took down a gang too "minor" for the heroes to do anything about, and decided to reform them rather than arrest them.
Fira Posted December 12, 2021 Posted December 12, 2021 Didn't play the char a ton yet so it's mainly a primer, and it's probably not really what you're looking for, but it might still be interesting... Had a concept for a Thugs/Time Praetorian MM as an investigative reporter. The catch was that she's getting odd leads by being able to unexpectedly pull echoes of the nearby neighborhood street thugs... from a completely unspecified related point in an unspecified timeline. Which, obviously, can turn up very interesting information, just as completely bogus and irrelevant one. Idea would then simply be local [some time] thugs help out with the local [now] trouble. Being random characters they would purposely have no assigned names - so i was going to set up a chain of rotating binds to randomly rename them with a keypress (already using a similar system for another MM and orders interactions)...
jkwak Posted January 6, 2022 Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) i have one that is a hero but also a school bully, he comes from a famoud super hero family and takes the pressure he gets out on class mates, the thugs are just fellow bully friends from his school who tag along with the teen hero. therefor he has a generic hero name and the thugs have just normal every day names Edited January 6, 2022 by jkwak back to the Zukunft @Jkwak
