DJ Blackrock Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'm starting a new Champions campaign in a couple of days, and here's my roster Frostbite- Ice/Cold manipulator Lisa Deing (no codename yet)- Fire/Heat Manipulator The Twins- Twin psychically linked mecha pilots Buntai-Kun- Martial Artist with elemental powers (think Avatar on Nickelodeon) Tzalan- Other-dimensional wraith like being inhabiting a human host Panther- a former cheerleader/gymnast, now brick. Hates her powers and a Plant controller. My issue now, is a name for the plant controller. I'm using a modified version of Thorn's character sheet from CKC, and simplified it as much as I could since the player is brand-stinking new to role playing altogether. I've been trying to figure out some possible names for the plant controller, just to give him some ideas, but I can't come up with much. So far I've got Botanic and Greenhouse. Flora is too girly for a male character and a friend suggested Photosynthesis, but that's kinda long to shout in combat. Any other suggestions? Any help is appreciated!

Certified Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Re: Help! Need a name! Major Disaster (If only as a tribute to Lloyd Kaufman) Okay Plant guy names: I saw Druid on the list and I think that works well the character if mystically oriented, on those lines you may also have Herbalist and Crius orKreios one of the more unknown of the Titans/children of Gaia. Some others: The Green Man Overgrowth Verdant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psylint Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Re: Help! Need a name! Male Plant Controller names: John Baleycorn Thamuz (if Persian) Woden (if Germanic) Viridios (if Celtic) Verdan But my personal favorite has to be "Lorax" As in Dr. Seus, "I am the Lorax, and I speak for the trees, that you are down as fast as you please."

I am not familiar with Thorn/CKC, but my suggestions for a plant controller would be: The Gardener Harvester Overgrowth The Green Man Adonis ( was actually also a god of the harvest and vegetation ) Leaf Among Men ( pun on Chief among Men ) Biosynthesis ( a play on photosynthesis and metabolism ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
