What is your lead character's name?

Post by twosmokingbarre »

Mine is Shadow and has been the past 4 years since me and a friend decided to try a game I had gotten with my computer. It was in tribute of my dog who happened to be laying next to me at the time.

Almond Joy is my favorite. Sometimes I use Milky Way, Snickers, Rollo, Skittles (is usually a thief/rogue), Laffi Taffi, and the mage is always Tutti Fruitti.

My most memorable name was for my evil assasin Drizzt on my only evil run through of the game with Valen, Korgan, Edwin and Viccy. Imagine Drizzt's surprise when I met him and his merry friends. Boy, was he annoyed!

But sometimes I use the middle-earth name generator.

No, EMINEM is a fan of the celebrity, not the celebrity himself. You can find his posts by a User search. :)

I usually use my real name or my nickname for my wife (if I play a girl), but have also used:
Archie the Archer
Lug the Barbarian
Pal the Palidan
Swashy the Swashbuckler
Blade the Blade
Maggie the Mage
Ken the Kensai

I can't think of any of the others, but you get the idea. I have tried a couple of others that made me laugh, but can't think of them right now. I tried once with 6 (of the 9) Lord of the Rings characters. The party was too powerful though, so I scrapped it.

One of my funnest runs was using the names (and similar pictures) of my 3 kids. I tried to pick classes that were similar to their personalities.

Seen it, loved it, and can't understand why it bombed. Supposedly, its the worst Bruce Willis movie ever, but I really loved it. Plus, you have to love Andie McDowell. What's she up to these days?

Strangely enough, it's Dray Skullan. 1/2 Elven swashbuckler

I alternate games with him, or Kylorin Goldensword, paladin of Tyr. Those are my two favorite D&D characters ever.

For the moment, a Halfling Fighter/Thief named Roscoe. I usually play Half-Elven Bards or Mages named Machiavelli, though.
