Lol, I just found it ironic and wished it would provide some sort of irony to the story
I personally didnāt think of thatā¦
cose paladin usually have the worst reputation .
Though , now for some reasonā¦when I hear Paladinā¦I get the guy from Fallout 4
Iām sticking with my villain name of Revenant. I like how the meaning of the word is a big clue as to their true identity
My villain name is āNot sidestepā. So far, no one suspects
too funny !!
I usually either just let the newspaper name my mcā¦(It become enigma or the Puppeteer which are nice names and fitting) , or the only one I could come up with is Pein . I use Pein for that angst filled playtroughā¦
I always name my MCās villian persona Shade and pair it with the mysterious looking armor lol
Well, Paladins are people of virtue and honor ā¦and for my guyā¦he has all of thatā¦he just protays it in a silent way
played a few games where Paladins were the worst of the worstā¦
I gave upā¦since everytime I met a Paladin , he was an asshole lol but I finally gave up for goodā¦I met someone who had all the greatest qualities for a Paladin! but they were no Paladin .
I understand what you meant, sometimes games developters apply the word āPaladinsā without fully understand the term and what its representsā¦
Paladins were first represented by the knights of the Frank Emperor Charlemagne if i am not mistaken, and they fully follow their conduct according to the code of chivalry

For such straight code of honour , i donāt think our MC here has the ability to fully become one
Especially as Paladin, one cannot hide about their identity and intention , and he/she cannot attack anyone who is weaker than him/her ā¦ even before a perceived attack , paladins must also announce their arrival before hand ā¦
That was actually one of the reason why French knights were beaten heavily by the English in the Battle of Agincourt
Iāve just been using the villain name āDireā, but after reading some of the other names in this thread Iām now feeling terribly unimaginative.
I went with what the papers called me but āMastermindā is so fitting for an MC with a hobby of mind controlling civilians to relentlessly throw themselves at heroes like zombie hordes that I canāt imagine them being called anything else.
look at you! educating us first thing in tha mooooooorningā¦
you owe me coffee now lol
I was talking about games actually , where the idea of Paladin is probably close to reality but with a few tweaks here and there (like Paladins having Holy Powers from their deity ) .
@Joshua_Koch Awww , there is nothing wrong with letting the press name you . The names given by the story are actually really really good .
@TheRusty I havenāt seen that name ! Any idea how you get it ?
Iāve been using the name āCypherā for my first and most cautious/merciful MC with the mysterious armour. Itās a bit on the nose.
Be a known telepath and wear either the mysterious or functional suit.
Oh God I remember how I chose them to name me ONCE and I got fuckingā¦ Dominator or something. I lowkey died
I have 2 MCs. Jed, my main boi. Heās Sidestep. And then Zoey, still in development. Her nameās Phantasm. And I managed to make Ortega afraid, itās great
Nice! My main Iāve been calling Catalyst-like, a catalyst for change. Other options for her included Umbra, Apex and Prophet.
I have two others, an intimidating armor called The General, and then a terrifying one called Ninth Gate. I know that for that you might as well be waving around a sign that says IM HERE but likeā¦the drama of it was irresistible.
Iāve using the name Nightmare, usually I use Harbinger when choosing an alias for my āheroā anti-hero or villains, but since it had much of a resemblance with Herald I decided to change it, I donāt want to be associated with the flying fanboy lol.
Harbinger would remind me of Mass effect too much lol but I like Nightmare thoughā¦sound spookyā¦what armor do you pick for that mc ?
Why al these names when we can join our minds and become something more. Something superior Let us become a Legion and share the truth with the world.
I usually go for the terrifying armor but I also use it when playing with the imposing one, and I would be lying if I said that I wasnāt influenced by mass effect Harbinger when choosing the name lol
