Stalin_McRally Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Re: Let's Play "The Naming Game" Hacksaw? She is not really that hardcore, and anyway she is of Russian not German descent. Reasonable question. I pictured her with boot jets, bullet and energy weapon resistant costume, wrist minirockets that can go around corners, electronic countermeasures to radar and holograms to sight, and remote control over machines through her own patented universal interface. None of these abilities are set in stone at this point though. okie, mayby "INTERFACE" becuase that universal interface seems like it should count as her "hallmark gadget". or should it include her femininity somehow?

Please don't hand me straight lines. It forces me to make an EGO roll to resist joking off them and my EGO rolls aren't that good. Interfaces by their nature are conduits through which others act rather than actors themselves. So while you are right that her universal interface is her signature gadget, interface doesn't really suit her personally. Perhaps her ability to take control of machines could provide the basis for her name, but I have not come up with one based on it that I like. I briefly considered Remote Control but found it lame to me. My other ideas along this line, Machine Master and Machine Mistress, both strike as better villain names than hero names. Maybe you will think of something better than my ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehe that opens the whole question if your heroine is acting trough the machines with her will or are they acting through her will... well i've never really named many heroes, and is it supposed to mirror her gear AND personality? darn now that's advanced! how about Cyberstar?

Ranxerox Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Re: Let's Play "The Naming Game" A character named Interface who was an AI's means of acting in the world would be interesting. It's funny how in trying to come up with a good name for one character you can come up with ideas for two others. Cyberstar isn't bad. I may go with that. Thanks.
