And then there's his friend, the street-level vigilante, David Arknight.

Re: Funny Character Names
Has anyone suggested lawyers who have a law firm called "Wee, Cheatum, and Howe."
If not, rewatch the Three Stooges.

Re: Funny Character Names
I briefly played a Dwarven druid. He was named after a mushroom which, in common, was called "deathcap" so, he went by Deathcap. He had a quirk that this always amused him because the name in Dwarven had no such connotation.

Re: Funny Character Names
Thinking of a firm called "Rutem, Lutem, and Burns".

There are an astonishing number of Doctors Payne. One of whom is a urologist specializing in urologic pain.
There are also a number of Doctrors Moore. |

My grandson is running a short campaign for me and his younger siblings using Wendys Feast of Legends system. My character is a member of the Order of the Frosty named Chuck Lot.

Re: Funny Character Names
I am truly shocked no one picked up the Sharknado reference before.
Not tabletop RPGs, but Town of Salem can produce some great moments name wise, especially if people suggest a funny theme in the lobby. There was this time I went by the name Necroa Virus, and sadly ended up as neither the Necromancer nor the Retributionist, but as a Medium. Playing Dracula's Castle mode as Templar Indus(tries) and ending up Vampire Hunter and killing 2 vamps N1 was pretty fun, I guess one of the vamp was a Plague Inc fan. A game of Coven Lovers, someone suggested we named ourself after countries. I called myself Poland, and ended up Werewolf. Wojtek was a bear, true, but close enough and didn't stop me from running with it. |
