CPaladino Posted April 14, 2003 Report Share Posted April 14, 2003 I wrote a name generator (which does supers pretty well) in VB. I'll upload it tonight. It basically takes a "supers.dat" text file which consists of a "prefix" and "suffix" and picks one at random from each table and throws them together and allows output to a text file. I have dat files for items, supers, and some stuff I was messing around with. -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These would all be outstanding names for the Fuzzy appendix. I've moved all of them in the master file except Doctor Silverback, who stays in the main list for being an actual member of the Champions Universe super community. McCoy Oh, and BTW, 4022 - Protomech 4023 - Protomech Oops. Thanks. Fixed in the master file.

Siberian Tiger Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Super Names -Doc Croc Not sure if I agree with moving Doc Croc to the Fuzzy Champions list. There was a Captain Britain foe with that name - possibly in the comics only published in the UK. Think he was some form of Central African dictator who could turn into a were-crocodile... can't recall the full details at present Would also like to take this opportunity to thank David for his work in managing this thread and compiling the contributions for us.

death tribble Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Thanks Dave, We are well on course for 6,000 with the ones I am submitting. I am surprised that Borgia did not make it. We still have Medici. Obviously the Medici have a better press campaign going. Could I make a request ? No more updates until we can get to 6,000 with or without Fuzzy ? I can easily submit over 100 for you to cull through so that we can make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death tribble Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Dave, next set. Demo Demolition Demolition Man Demon Barber Demon Child Demon Dwarf Demon Master Demon Soul Demon Warrior Demon Wolf Desire Destiny Devil Butcher Devil Daughter Devil Ray Devil Woman Devil's Advocate Devil's Disciple Devolution Man Devolver Diamondhead Dimension Man Dinosaur Man Dione Dionysus Disciple Discordia Disease Distress DN Amy We have few demons and Devils so the above and nothing on Demolition. Demon Barber. Sweeney Todd allegedly killed his customers and then put them in pies. This was what he was called. Dione. I believe is a moon of Jupiter or Saturn Dionysus. The Greek version of Bacchus. Discordia. I got this from the book Illuminatus. All hail Eris, all hail Discordia. DN Amy. I shamelessly stole this from a cartoon.

There was a Captain Britain foe with that name - possibly in the comics only published in the UK. Think he was some form of Central African dictator who could turn into a were-crocodile... can't recall the full details at present There are a couple others in the Fuzzy appendix that would make good regular super names; it's a tough call. Siberian Tiger Would also like to take this opportunity to thank David for his work in managing this thread and compiling the contributions for us. No problem, I'm still enjoying the project. I'm glad others are finding it useful. I'd like to thank everyone who has contributed, whether new names or error catching, especially death tribble for his tireless devil's advocacy.

death tribble Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Dave, All the Es and the start of F Emerald Knight Emmissary Enchantress Enlarger Entangler Entropy Envoy Enzyme Ephemera Epidemic Epidermis Epitaph Epitome Epoch Equalizer Equation Equator Equinox Escapade Eternia Ether Eunach Euphoria Evaluator Exotic Exterminator Extinguisher Eyeball Eye Man F.A.S.T. (Florida Advanced State Trooper) Epoch came up as a drawing on the site. Eternia is a character that Marchwarden on the site mentioned as a team mate. FAST. I thought Federal for the F but it did not sound so good. I know no American cities beginning with F so I thought of Florida instead.

death tribble Posted April 17, 2003 Report Share Posted April 17, 2003 Dave, The last of the Fs and the start of the Gs. Fog Foxglove Fountainhead Frag FrankenEinstein Free Agent Free Lancer Free Styler Free Will Freon Frigid Frontline Frontman Frost Master Frost Mistress Fulmar FX Gallileo Gambit Gamesmaster Gamma Gamma Man Gamma Master Garter Gaseous Gascon, The Gater Gazza Ladra, La (The Thieving Magpie) Gecko Gemstone FrankenEinstein. Either a self made genius, or a Genius created like Frankenstein's monster from spare parts. Fulmar is a type of bird FX as in Special Effects. The Gascon. Again a region of France and this is what D'Artagnian was referred to in the Three Musketeers. I will submit FUBAR again when I have a good enough acronym.

Sorry I've left the thread idle for a few days. My life's gotten very busy as of last week. I've kicked most of it to the curb, but I still have a car in the shop and a friend in the ICU. Oy vey. I may be able to do a roundup this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
