| Welcome one and all to the Minis name game. The point of the game is to come up with words or small phrases in Creature's names.
There will be titles given in the end that you can put in your sig.
Awards include:
Longest word or phrase that has to do with the creature
Word or Phrase that makes the most sense with the creature
Strangest word or phrase
Any other suggestions are welcome
The ones I could find were:
Astral Deva
A Starved Al
Bone Ooze
One Booze
Ice Devil
Iced Evil
What can you find?
I've made this game up because there hasn't been any games on herew for a while and this idea popped into my head. I hope you find it fun. It's harder than you think. | |

| Okay, I probably will never beat "die festering meatball". That just makes me laugh every time I think it. I'll play around and see what I get, though:
Exorcist of the Silver Flame - exhort lame vices for lies
Githyanki Dragon Knight - Ad: Hairy King Kong thing
Large Water Elemental - mean ale, wetter lager

| Okay, so most of these are pretty dumb, but I figure I should share even my weaker attempts.
Hill Giant Barbarian - Ill, thinning Barbara
Harmonium Guard - I go, a mad rum run
Medium Copper Dragon - Cop dude ramming rope
Karsite Fighter - Fat hiker tires
Soldier of Bytopia - lies paid for booty
Aspect of Demogorgon - come get spoof dragon
I think, for the time being, this has replaced Sudoko as my method for passing idle time. | |

You can start the voting any time. I'll still keep posting, though, since I'm having fun generating a couple a day. So, even if I don't win the prize for "best" mini name-agram, I'll certainly be the most prolific. I'm not even sure which of mine I think is the best, though I think I'm most proud of the Orc Champion one (that one caught me by surprise when it just sort of popped out--it's about as close to perfect as an anagram gets if you're playing by Vrecknidj's rules, trying to make the anagram relate to the original mini). If you don't know what carom means, it's a shot in billiards where the cue ball hits two balls in succession. | |

| The anagram site makes it too easy. Theres definatly funny ones though!
Red Hand war sorceror - A cad drowns her error
Somewhat appropriate:
Artemis Entreri- I terminates err
Somehow relates to banning I'm sure:
Drider Sorceror - Dire Scrod Error
upset about losing to him in Epic:
Aspect of Bahamut - O, A fat beast chump! | |
