elibalin: Any progress?

serinde: I am getting yucks out of Star Wars Name Generators, though.
serinde: "Arwen Taurendil" ? O RLY.
elibalin: Um. Right.
elibalin: The good thing is, nothing sounds wrong.
serinde: "Eckle Arlos" !
serinde: "Fable Su" !
elibalin: My character in KOTOR is "Sledge Harbatkin".
serinde: Hee. Did you make that up or pick the random offering?
elibalin: I made that up.
serinde: See? CAN'T TELL.
elibalin: This is a world in which "Rash Bag Pooop'u" is a perfectly reasonable name.
serinde: We are not allowing Gungans.
elibalin: "No! The dread Sith Darth Wonga Wonga Wonga Wonga Wonga Wonga Wonga Ned."
elibalin: Actually, I kind of like the idea of "Darth Ned".
elibalin: He wears sweater vests!

Random name generators can be fun. In Crawl, the Pandemonium Lords — demons badass enough to have individual names (and be an & instead of a number) — get randomly generated names, which usually come out sounding suitably like a demon lord from beyond our reality, like Ojyeqin or Guzetualia or Mnebel or Psunoag.

Thus it was that one day I was spectating on someone's game as they encountered: Lips the Pandemonium Lord.

Also, speaking of Star Wars: have some exceptionally interesting cosplay. Also, a news headline.
