As far as reincarnation names, I generally just name people what their original names were... I did give Halk the last name 'Davidson' last time I played with him, just as a quiet reference to Viewtiful Joe, though.

My sister, my cousins and I used to play around with the CSB portrait studio for hours. Our creations were usually mockeries of the original characters, anyone we didn't particularly like. I don't remember much, but we stuck a pink bow on Wuuf's head and called it (him? her?) something like "Fluffy the Vicious." We thought we were funny.
I tend to rename characters after real people. My sister and I had a DM game where all the characters were named after my friends, and when we got the SNES game, we named our party after our favorite teachers. Gothmog was Mr. Brostrom, the 7th grade science teacher who terrified everyone but was still really awesome. Tiggy was Mrs. Pocsik, the 8th grade English teacher who joked about being a witch. I don't remember who the other two teachers were. We used the teachers' first names, which made everything funnier (naturally, teachers' first names are hilarious when you're a student). That was probably the most interestingly named group I've ever had.

back to the daroou topic:
According to the nes portraits, he looks furry. ALL RIGHT!
If you take a look at the dm version of daroou, you could say he looks furry. OKAY!
If you consider the csb updated pictures of the dm champions, daroou looks like a muddy mud pile and not like a furry beastie; hence my imagination of daroou being a mudman; so i could be completely wrong, most likely i am.
it doesn´t matter what exactly daroou exactly is, it is a good thing it is not 100% ascertained.
At least for me.

It just looks to me that he has very weird facial anatomy, but I still think he's fuzzy. I think of wookiees more easily than any sort of mud-men in fantasy, and since DM tends to pull its characters from generic fantasy ideas or specific known worlds...
Any word from FTL in the "why we used the names we did" thread? I don't remember offhand...

My favourite, as you can see from the ava, is Sonja. 
She and Leyla Shadowseek are both my favourite. Unfortunately, both have hardly any mana so I am not using them anymore.
I try to get through the dungeon with just 2 champions since I find it very difficult to keep 4 of them alive - both food and water is getting less and less and having to feed 4 of them is just too much.
So I am trying to keep them down to 2.
At the moment I am playing with Leif the Valiant and Hawk the Fearless, simply because I want both to be able to fight AND to have enough mana. So those two are therefore my favourite - among others. LOL

Thanks for the tip, Without Remorse. I didn't know that was a way of getting your mana count up.PaulH wrote:Leif, Hawk: great all round characters. Along with Stamm (of course) and Elija, these are my favourite people.
Is it still cold on Saturn?
And yes Paul, it's darn cold - considering how far away from the sun we are... But our underground cities are all heated so it's quite enjoyable down below. Above ground, you will need a lfe suit anway.
