Starlord Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 Trying to think of a name for a hero with cosmic 'jedi-like' powers. He has telekinetic powers from manipulation of the surrounding 'living energy' or 'cosmic' fields. He is literally in touch with his surroundings and with that he also has hypersenses, limited telepathy, precognition, danger sense. His origin is not magical in nature, it's scientific and I'm leaning towards unusual and esoteric names. Also, I really seem to be stuck on names beginning with the letter 'p' since some of the best ones I can think of so far are Prophet, Prodigy, Promethean, Proteus, and Priest.

casualplayer Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 Re: Need a name... Paladin? Pacifist? Parcheesi? I wish you had mentioned costuming and personality a bit more. Could be anything from Saracen to Samhain. It does bring up one of my naming bugaboos. In a world where Star Wars exists as popular entertainment not as a documentary, a character with this power set is going to be called Jedi. Admittedly the Cease and Desist may speedily arrive from your game world's George Lucas but the media is going to keep calling this guy Jedi. Why not run with it? Had a were-character once that really wanted to be called Kodiak but the papers kept calling him The Wookiee. Pinnacle? Perception? Mymidon? Watchman? Public Defender? Mulch?

Badger Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 Re: Need a name... Hey fbdaury, the term Zen could also work for the name. If he wants to be simple and less obscure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
