Lord Liaden Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 Since "The Inca" didn't make it in (and my mother's from Peru, so I have a vested interest), may I suggest instead Inti, the Inca sun god. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siberian Tiger Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 A few more from me: Cerebellion - mentalist who makes you do the opposite of what you believe in - the devout Christian becomes an atheist hedonist, the ruthless corporate businessman turns into a socialist etc Roblivion - thief who was cursed to steal for eternity American Angel - appeared at Ground Zero on 12th September to help the disaster recovery programme. Looks like an angel, dresses in the stars and stripes. In reality, an agent of a hostile power seeking to inflitrate the USA's superteams.

death tribble Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 A friend of mine called Paul Geelan came up with the name as a member of the wartime resistance in France. L'Oiseau Noir was female. Paul was studying Geology when I met him. Vanished (from everyone) about a decade ago now. We all kind of liked the way the name sounded.

death tribble Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Dave, The next batch Pterra Don (Part Dinosaur bird, part Mafia head, all Evil) Public Executioner Puppet Maker Puritan Purity Purple Mask Purple Panther Pylon Pyroclastic Pyrofly Pyrotechnics Queen Bee Queen of Hearts Quisling Rabid Raccoon Radar Radar Rider Radical Radical Rose Radioactive Material Radion Radiowave Ragamuffin Raging Inferno Raging Paranoia Raider Ramrod Ramses, the Living Pharoah Rapscallion Pterra Don. As opposed to the dinosaur bird Pterradon. What can I say ? the idea simply appealed to me. Go on, you know you want to include it. Pyroclastic. This is after the vulcanologist term (Pyroclastic Flow) for a cloud of volcanic debris or cloud that comes down at terrific speed and kills instantly. This is what is now reckoned to have done for the inhabitants of Pompeii and Herculaneam during Vesuvius's eruption in AD79. It has only been witnessed twice and is a recently discovered phenomenon. Quisling. After the Norwegian Vidkun Quisling who worked with the Germans during WW2. Radioactive Material is a fashion designer obsess with adding radiation to fashion Radar Rider is another colleague of Marchwarden Raging Inferno/Paranoia. Wrestlers or bricks with low tolerance but obvious powers/side effects. Ragamuffin is an English word for a youngster. Rapscallion is an English word usually applied to youngsters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico can either be taken as the name or as an anti or pro rackets paranormal after the American legislation of the same name.

Um... why would anything need to be done?His name's not on the list; I suspect "Licensed to HERO" is merely an attempt at being clever; Just about every other super name owned by DOJ is already on the list, and we've had no complaints from the management. Or am I missing a joke? :-| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
