Oracle Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 After realizing, that this would a complete misuse of the original thread, so I have move my question to its own thread. 1 hour ago, AndrewTBP said: I’m happy to report that the Jack O’Bear encounter was a success. It took me a whole Tuesday evening to get the Unpredictable Attacks to work with the Powercards API script in Roll20. In play it was fun, and Corner of the Eye was triggered by Oracle’s Alynx Companion, so we got to see both attacks. Speaking of my Alynx companion, I would like to invoke the tribe's creativity. I'm playing the character with it's Alynx companion already several months, but I still did not get a cool name for the Alynx. In the HeroQuest PbF I'm participating another player had an Alynx with the name Purrs-a-lot, which I really liked. But this name has been used already, so I'm looking for something similar and ask you for your help, because I've failed so far. (Ichty as well as Scratchy are out ... too many vibes, which go into the wrong direction ... 😉) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soltakss Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Soltak Stormspear had an alynx called Stormpuss, it was a magical spirit that grew wings when it inhabited an alynx but could relocate to a new host if the old one was killed. 1 Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982.

One of our prior cats (who was named Sunrise due to the bright spot on her forehead) could well have gone by the name Volebane (usually only recognizable at the end by a small pile of guts), or Rodentbane (she really didn't discriminate - quite readily killed mice, beheaded chipmunks, and on rare occasions caught moles). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So lady death on 4 legs might be appropriate (or lord)? And should that spot be red... glowspot....

Darius West Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 My friend used a Warhammer random Chaos name generator to name his kitten. He settled on Skullcrush Throb-toad. It was shortened to Skull or Skullie, but never carried the same dignity as his full name. Some less complimentary suggestions: Lurker, Runt, Skank, Ambush. Just steer away from names from Cats them Musical. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorus Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Sometimes the most creative is the least creative, because no one else would pick it. Name it Alynx (and Google "Big Jake", if needed). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricW Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 You could go all Terry Pratchett, call it "cuddles": As the evil looking Alynx with glittering eyes and long, needle sharp claws emits a low growl like a distant rumble of thunder, a stalking malignant expression of bestial cruelty, taunting their quivering prey before pouncing... "Oh cuddles, he's just a big softie, give him a poke if he bothers you" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is basically what Cerberos means in Greek, you know, the 3 headed hound of hell, yep, Fluffy. Never let it be said that Hades lacks a sense of humor. (Also see Darwin Awards).
