Found a Decent Name, Lost for a Decent Concept

[Panache]

Last night I found and locked down two names whose availability surprised me: Wolfdog and Highness. The former is obviously a crusty lycanthrope who lives in the woods (Savage Brute for sure, prolly WP or Invuln), but I have no idea what to do with the latter. Mind Dom came to mind first, for making baddies bend the knee so to speak, but I'm not 100% sold on that. 

 

Anybody have any impulse ideas conjured up by that alias?

I'm imagining a mostly-noble flying-brick type with a bit of a tendency to look down on normal humans.

My first thought was to lean into a double meaning of the name and do a Psi/Nrg Blaster who fought from 200' lol.

 

Now I'm thinking of pairing Shield with Psi Melee; I haven't tried the latter set at all.

Highness

Well, a lot depends upon whether you're going to use the name seriously or ironically, and whether said character will have more of a benevolent or malevolent leaning.

 

Serious & Good:  An empathy/storm defender could have a rather regal and benevolent air to it, whilst also portraying a sense of poise & power.

 

Serious & Evil:  A necro/dark or necro/pain mastermind would definitely get the idea across of being a cruel and slave-driving ruler.

 

Comedic & Good:  A grav/kin controller could definitely "motivate" both allies and enemies, with humorous results!

 

Comedic & Evil:  A mind/savage dominator would definitely "get things done", probably with a lot of whining and carrying on along the way, (also, calling birds to attack your enemies is a funny spin on the classic Disney princess motif of having cute animal friends)...

 

Related to the "Comedic & Evil" listing above, a beast/empathy or beast/nature mastermind could take the "animal friend" theme and give it a positive, (albeit violet), bent...

Wolfdog ended up getting way more attention (1-50 in 3 days and first real foray into Savage; that set is fun as heck!), but I played around with Psi Melee a bit, and the animations seem very in line with an imperious snob of a hero.

Highness - I would go with a scrapper myself.  Savage/WP or dual blades/WP

 

Id make her look sweet and innocent out of combat, and a complete homicidal maniac when in.
