Heroic Name Help - Spirit Walker


Enforcer84

Recommended Posts

Working title of character, Spirit walker. Wanting to discuss other possibilities.

 

Working on the character background right now so not everything is set in stone:

 

real name unknown (at this time)

Female

age 34

Height: 5'5'' weight 134lbs

Red-Brown hair, Green Eyes, Fair skin, freckles.

 

Powers: Essentially a font for her bloodline's souls. She can summon them, use their life force to enhance her own, use them as messengers, and gets nigh constant advice from them. Additionally she can control her own life force and use it as a weapon or use her own to sympathetically heal someone (ie taking damage she heals)

 

She's a former criminal defense lawyer, and thanks to her ancestor's constant badgering, has developed many skills, she has a view of history from some who were there, can speak a number of languages (mostly French and a few Native American languages) 

She constantly experiences deja vu when visiting new places. 

 

She studied Krav Maga in college as exercise/self-defense for her legal career. 

She's not a spiritual person (irony!) and is quite distracted by her nattering ancestors. She's a no-nonsense woman used to having people do what she says. She mgiht have a mystical sounding Code Name as a lark but she's just as likely to go the other way. 

 

 

 

Names that Strike me:

Spirit Walker

Scion

Medium? - that's a tad silly.

Poltergeist

Haunted

I'm not sure what ethic roots the character has, but mythology is often good.

 

From Germanic / Norse mythos: Munin.

 

Munin was Odin's raven associated with memory, whereas Hugin was associated with thought.

 

There is a poem about a conversation between an unmarried Valkyrie and a raven called Hrafnsmal.

 

And, ravens were commonly associated with spirits. For instance, a Valravn was a "raven of the slain."

 

Valravn might make a cool surname for the character separate from the "costume name."

 

And, thematically, you could just use "Raven" for the heroic identity. Or... Valkyrie.
