My tired, election night addled brain is utterly failing to work out what that's off... It's very familiar though.

1st one is simpsons tree house of horror, where kang and kodos replaced dole and clinton. but i thought it was zapp branagan from futurama

and its hockey play offs, so full beard is in effect. and for the record i avent had a hair cut in 4 years

and livin in california makes me way more of a hippy

eh, you're both hippies so i'll equally yell "GIT OFF MY DANG LAWN YOU GODDANG HIPPIES!" before taking pot shots at you with a sawn off shotgun.

Kinda glad I cut my hair a couple of weeks ago now.

But enough with the hippy crapola. I'm trying to think of new names for my team... and failing.

Just download 'In the Thick Of It' and 'In the Loop', then use all Malcolm Tucker's insults as names. He must have said at least one that is only PG13. lol

I kinda wanna go a more serious and transformery route.

Pick a theme.
Pick 2 character traits within said theme for each character.
Put them into a Latin translator.
See what you get. Does me fine.

Tried that. Either got words that didn't work together or nothing at all. I suppose the problem is that I'm looking for a new name for Verick, but I want to more or less keep the character traits, and I'm trying to find something that works with lion/leo.

"Optimus Primes Super Happy Fun Time Love-In"

Just because I'm an autobot, doesn't mean it's all about the Prime.

What ideas do you want conveyed by your team AZ?

"Wheelie's Super Happy Leg Humping Fun Time Shag-a-Rific Extravaganza"

For the one currently under the name verick: lion, brave, confident/cocky, heroic, brawler, veteran, loves to fight, strong, friendly, protective

For the one currently under firestar: redhead, uses fire, uh... spanish, self-sufficient female

For the one currently under Knuckles: redhead also, strong, flier, also spanish, firestar's brother, melee fighter

For the one currently under Exia: not a fighter, builder/inventer, alchoholic, untrained, friendly, motorcycle, racer, doesn't follow rules (might swap her name to Accel, but then I'm still short a name...) female

For the one currently under Wildstorm: wolf, agressive, protective, cocky, young, likes to fight, wind, female

For the one currently under Grav: risk taker, female, flier, hotshot/hotdog

*L* I'm in a "I want to change things" mood right now, and while I've never been good at names, I'm even worse right now since I'm mentally all over the place, planning out kitbashes that I may or may not ever get to, new characters for new dnd games, getting new furniture... I suppose I actually want to rename pretty much all of them, but those will work for now I guess... I have character pictures of most of the characters... technically all of them but I didn't draw Grav/Kai Lee. They're all the human characters I'm basing my team off of.

That would have been one of the worst points of the movie... if not for the rest of RotF.

Just of sh!ts and giggles, reading what you have this is what comes to (at least my) mind, if it helps great. If not, no worries.

Joking:
Mane Event
Mustafa
Serious:
The word Pride comes to mind, both as a emotional connection to what you want and the whole (pride of lions). Try working with that.

if you want spanish maybe something from "mujeres soldado del sol" loosly Female fighter from the sun. very loosely.

only thing that pops into my mind is a portmanteau of Torque and Tourniquet.

The wolf is a strong figure within mythology factoring into so many cultures, check wiki and see if anything hits you.

Sounds like Racetrack

Better than Leo Strike that I was thinking of... As for Mustafa... I actually though about Lio Konig or Lio Kaiser, but, since it's Lion King or Lion Emperor... I figured people wouldn't take it seriously.

The only downside is that's actually longer than her human character name of Maria Del la Fuente.

No offense, but Conquistador (a name a friend recommends) is better... Spanish isn't a language with a lot of cool words, imo.

Torque is good.

Didn't think of that...

Heh... Ironically, Starbuck was her main influence when I was making her.

AZ- Caliente? spanish for hot

Conquistador and Caliente, that could work well.

It could. *L* Though I should admit, Conquistador was recommended to be his super hero name. I guess it works for transformers as well.

female character, so, woman backwards = kitchen

(No, I'm not being serious, it's a joke)

Harking back to a conversation from a few weeks ago.

My xp growth hit 5% this week AND my mission success rate went up 1%.

Good week.
