Powerhouse Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Superman is also known as the Man of Steel, Man of Tommorow, and Metropolis Marvel. Batman strikes fear into the hearts of others as the Dark Knight, Caped Crusader, and World's Greatest Detective The Flash is of course The Fastest Man Alive. So, what else is YOUR character called! I don't have too many right now since I just thought of the topic but so far: Lady Silver: Lady of Light, Mistress of Magic and Mysticism Nova: The Alien Fury (denoting both her speed, energy powers, and temper) Star Knight: the Celestial Paladin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Mhoram Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Re: Titles for your character Ballistic was refereed to as the "Supersuit Supermage" at one point, and that stuck.

Narratio Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Re: Titles for your character Kapitan Reich has been called the Arayan Superman by the Nazi press of his home timeline. He's also been called the 'blond booger' and "Pigheaded, stuck up Prussian idiot" in this time line. Do those count? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinanju Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Re: Titles for your character Hell's Angel was named by one of the firefighters who showed up to deal with the warehouse fire she started the first time she manifested her powers. She was tied to a chair, being brutally interrogated when she burst into flames and transformed into the gorgeous, winged woman--engulfed in flames. When she came walking out of the inferno in a daze (and naked), one firefighter asked, "Is she an angel?" Another said, "Hell's Angel, maybe...."

Marketeer Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Re: Titles for your character He is? During the Reign of the Supermen, each of the "Supermen" had one of Superman's monickers. If that is correct, I believe it is "The Metropolis Kid" (Superboy). Also, there is "The Last Son of Krypton" (the Eradicator). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed-F Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Re: Titles for your character Soulbarb tries to keep a low profile, so she wouldn't get a public title. But, she might get a title among her allies/enemies of 'Scourge of the Night', or 'Demonscourge', or something to that effect. Sylph probably has a title already, 'Champion of Dionysus', though she's not really aware of it yet, and it's something that would require a fair amount of mystic awareness to be able to figure out.

Powerhouse Posted July 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Re: Titles for your character Cool titles so far. And yes, Superman has been called the Metropolis Marvel although it's not one of his common nicknames compared to the Man of Steel and Last Son of Krypton. Let's see: Titan (with Iron Man like armor): the Mechanized Marvel, Wakandian Wonder (when I playfully change the name of his homeland to Marvel's but always retcon it), and the last is a deragotory from racist villains: the Armored African. Sentinel: no "official" one although alot refer to him as "that guy with the rod up his ***" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakboy6117 Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Re: Titles for your character I only really have one character I'm working on with a title from the fifties-60s incarnation of the shining aegis professor Payne the perspicacious pugilist he is a brilliant archaeologist, linguist and historian. The good rpofessor paid his way through university by performing as a masked wrestler and prize fighter an expert in ancient combat and the scientific art of boxing. his skillfull fists are almost as important an asset o the team as his keen intellect and almost supernatural grasp of languages. wears a tweed jacket smokes a pipe fights the force of evil.

Trebuchet Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Re: Titles for your character Zl'f has no such moniker. The closest she ever got to it was the title (Small Wonder) of a magazine interview* she gave for our campaign's newsletter, the Weekly Globe Enquirer. But since I wrote (and posted) that article three years ago right after MidGuard whipped Eurostar, I don't think that counts. Monikers should be given by teammates, the press, or opponents. * http://herogame.dans.cust.servlets.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7331 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killer Shrike Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Re: Titles for your character All of the Mill Men had a descriptive sentence such as this, even if it wasnt actually actively used... http://www.killershrike.com/MillennialMen/MillennialMen_WarMan.shtml Personally I feel that a concept such as this is a key element to a classic superhero.
