Badger Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Well, in my week long forced exile due to my dumb computer getting a virus (why does this happen to me every Christmas?) I have been doing some brainstorming. And well since we are in the season, I thought what about a villain team based on the orignal 8 reindeer. This is the ideas i thought of. Alright for the names (for those not familiar) On Dasher! On Dancer! On Prancer and Vixen On Comet! On Cupid! On Donner and Blitzen. Anyhow, now for my ideas. Vixen- pretty straight forward, made me think Seductress, hypnotizes with pheromones to do her bidding (depending on orientation of course) Dasher- basically an evil Flash homage. Maybe, powered down a bit of course. Comet- first thought along the lines of Dasher. The decided to get away from that and I thought maybe some kind of energy projector/fireballer. Cupid- basically an evil Green Arrow homage. I wouldnt really do exactly like Cupid of myth. Would step on Vixen's toes too much. Blitzen- the brick. Probably German. Might not be too bright. Probably comepletely loyal to leader Donner. Prancer & Dancer- brother/sister MAs or sister/sister. With Prancer, I envisioned kind of the stereotypical homosexual personality (My apologies if I offend :o). If offensive I will say twin sister MAs. Donner- not sure on powers. I figured he'd be the leader. I immediately thought Donner party. So, I thought maybe some apparition that needs to feed occasionally off human flesh to maintain his powers. Probably mental or magic powers. Most likely magic. So, if anybody has thoughts or ideas along these lines. I would be interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermit Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Donner means Thunder, I believe. Much like Blitzen has to do with lightning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCoy Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Blitzen- the brick. Probably German. Might not be too bright. Probably comepletely loyal to leader Donner. IIRC Blitzen is lighting, and Donner thunder, so I would reverse those. Donner a brick, or possibly a sonic EP, with Blitzen throwing lightning bolts. Now what about Rudolph and Olive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I admit my Blitzen idea came about more for how the football blitz and the German blitzkrieg overwhelmed their opponents. I did know blitzkrieg meant lightning war.

gojira Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? I thought reading the title that some villains had decided to steal Santa's reindeer and my first idea was "Foxbat." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Now what about Rudolph and Olive? Rudolph has Images (project light) and Enhanced Senses (see through fog, etc. unobstructed). Olive doesn't really exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtelson Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Olive should have duplication. 'Olive the other reindeers used to laugh and call him names' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted December 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Well according to wikipedia (take from it what you will) the one on the left (Dasher, Prancer, Comet, Donner) were male. While the other four were there female mates. (Dancer, Vixen, Cupid, Blitzen).

zaras Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? I thought what about a villain team based on the original 8 reindeer. This is the ideas i thought of. Which begs the question, who is the master of our Villainous Ruminants- surely there is a write-up of 'Evil' Santa somewhere? Detect: Naughty or Nice? Vehicle and Polar Base Little Elf followers skilled in toy and armanents manufacture. Powers of time controll or ftl movement on his sleigh to get it all done in one night- taking the presents children longed for away. Cause and effect, for every Ying there is a Yang and throughout the aeons, every 25th of December, 'Evil' Santa and 'Good' Santa have fought for domination of humanitys collective unconciousness.........What was i talking about?

Corven_Ren Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Well Dasher obviouslly would be a speedster. Dancer maybe a mystic who's gestures would be dancing rather than hand gestures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can draw inspiration from this carol: I hope he won't forget to crack his castinet, And to his reindeer, say, "Oh Pancho, Oh! Vixen, Oh! Pedro, Oh! Blitzen," Ole! Ole! Ole! cha cha cha. What?

Drhoz Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Now what about Rudolph and Olive? Rudolph's the leader of course. I mean, Santa even asked him to lead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edsel Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Make lovers Dancer & Prancer androgynous enough that no one really knows whether they are male or female. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casualplayer Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? These sound like the henchmen of a Batman-style villain. I'm imagining an octet of antlered animorphs, almost like Samhain. Might I suggest Saint Nick for the mastermind? He sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake....

Cygnia Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? When my late ex-BF was running a Golden Age campaign, he had a pair of Axis villains named Donner & Blitzen with the thunder & lightning powers.

Sidume Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Hmmm. Perhaps the leader of Chirstmasland named in Nightmare before Christmas: SANDY CLAWS I'd probably make Cupid the Seductive one, and spin Vixen to be more of a canine-predator/strategist.

Probably mental or magic powers. Most likely magic. So, if anybody has thoughts or ideas along these lines. I would be interested. Remarkably similar to what my wife and I thought up. Dasher - Speedster Dancer - Martial Artist: Capoeira style. Prancer - Superleaping brick Vixen - The character from Evil Unleashed Comet - Ice powers (comets are chunks of ice, after all) Cupid - Trick arrow shooter Donner - Thunder powers Blitzen - Lightning powers (Donner means Thunder, Blitzen means lightning) You were thinking of Jeffrey DAHMER, not Donner.

casualplayer Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? Probably was thinking the Donner Party, where a wagon train got snowed in longer than they should have been able to survive with their supplies. Some survived and some became stew meat.

Though I do think Dahmer ate parts of his victims too. He did, and kept their heads in a freezer. What luck to be born near Donner Pass in Cali/Nevada and then move to Wisconsin where Dahmer shopped for long pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
