View Full Version : The Name Game: Name This Villain!

Here is my villain for CoV...at least, a rough CoH sketch. I've pretty much got the background for him, praetorian version of Krypto, etc.
Not too sure on the powers, but I was thinking of the Dark Fire set in the Brute AT, cause it sounds f'ing evil.
The only thing he's lacking, of course, is a good name. Knowing you guys are quite good at coming up with names, I thought I'd ask. :)
Here's a pic.

Well, since the Proterriers(sp?) are like COH characters just with goatees, maybe a play on the Kripto name, as Kripto is supposed to be cryptic somewhat, how about the opposite of cryptic, possibly Lucid?

Kryptonus
Kryptos

Dark Kryptus
Black Krypto
Dread Kryptos

Went through ye olde writer's mental thesaurus, ie my brain, and dug the word "cardinal", which is a color that averages red or is a vivid red.
Then I thought of words for "sin" and came up with fall...
So I came up with: Cardinal Fall.
EDIT: Fell Cardinal is now taken... so :P

LMFAO.
Yeah, there will be 1 million in-game Virtue influence to the person who lists the name I end up going with.

Oh.
Only three posts, and they're all from today.
Got bored with ruling the OGaming site already, huh? Last time I checked, you couldn't wait to get rid of us defectors and slam the doorknob up our collective ass. So why the visit? :eyebrow:

Hey just so you know, if he's a villain, you'll probably be able to get atleast some of the names, since, I believe/hope, it's a whole 'nother name database.

If you don't mind sounding like a virus: Krypto-Perfidious
or a Sith: Lord Perfidous.
Basicly I'm adding the word Perfidious to the mix.
It means "guilty of betrayal" and is attributed as the name of the person who betrayed Carthage to the Romans.
Sorry dyslexia was playing up again; naughty dyslexia!
The Romans claimed that the Carthagains were perfidious and so wiped them off the face of the planet. Nice people the Romans.
Perfidious also can mean "being of treacherous character". So there.
Good word and one I shall try and use more often. :cool: :chuckle: >:]
Of course you could change "lord" to some other title; Imperator Perfidious has a nice ring to it, FoEx.

Kripto. It was my original choice, but then they told me I couldn't use it because it was "too similar". So, after replying to their email, they must've looked over again.

Okay, so how about something that's a play on that... like Cryptor or something.

Basically I'd just juggle the words scarlet, crimson, blood, smoke, ash, flame or fire, and shadow around to find something that fits this guy's look. Other random possibilities:
Lava Serpent
And... I'm drawing blanks. I'm not so good with villian names as I am hero names.

I'm still wondering what would be a good concept worthy of the name "Shibboleth". The name sounds cool, even if it's only defined as a method of detecting outsiders. ;)

There is a Shibboleth on Virtue. He's on one of my teams.

Don't get used to it. I just figured that I would point out yet another reason I'm not around this site.
It seems that it is easier for you to make snide comments about some people than correct others that have gone too far. Same favoritism crap as always, IMO, and I have seen nothing that shows me otherwise.
