ok I'm back again with something different. Thanks to the GM's suggestions Eric Drake Teenage villian in training is a unique blend of Robin from Teen Titans and the marvel villian Empath.
At the moment I'm thinking his code name should be Dream Boat (corny but effective)
Another character in the game plans on calling him adonis. My question is which name sounds better to you or if your in a creative mood what code name would you give him?

For a moment I thought the title was "Vilainous Code Name for a Emoticon Manipulator.

First thought was "The Insidious Dr. Smiley!"

Then I reread, realized my mistake and was much relieved :)

I'll try to think of some names now that my eyes are straight.

How about gender-bending the character? Call it "Typical Woman" :nya:

OTOH what first came to my mind with the topic header was Empathy, and what I think of looking through the character sheet is Heartthrob.

I hadn't considered "Crush" simple and effective just like the name Robin....hmmm

Jack of Hearts if you go casually villainy.

How about "Date-Rape Boy" if you go dark with it.

What kind of name would a teen-age boy want?

Stud?

What kind of name would other teens give him?

No Problem,

I was in a hurry when I posted that reply.
I meant to include a smiley, so it didn't sound like a condescending comment from The Simpson's "Comic Book Guy".:)

Even I had to check the book to make sure I was right.

Everyone else seems to be glossing over the fact that this is a bad guy. A villian who deals in seduction.

Incubus

CURSE YOU, Bob Greenwade, CURSE YOU! That was my first thought, as well. Oh well, I guess I'm not the only one who listens to boy bands.

So far he's been too embarressed by his power to tell anyone what it really is except that he's highly intelligent for a teenager.
The school for evil teenage mutants is a high level psi so she'd know he's psionic in nature. But back to the question so far one of the female characters is calling him adonis.
Although I am leaning towards the code name 'crush'

I vote for "Heartthrob" and "Loverboy" for his official code name.

As far as Adonis is concerned. I would file as the first of many (countless?) pet names given him by lovers.

With such a power, he's bound to become a cad.

Alexis walks in the room as Eric is trying on his new costume for Madame M.

"Yummy!" she said as she licked her lips. "I don't care what you call your self Dreamboat."
