I just showed this to a friend who got a kick out of it. He totally has a Tanker named LastSon.

I haven't purchased the GR pre-order yet, but I made a character to save my name --

Pepe LePewPew.

LOCAL MAN! The most famous hero of all. There are more newspaper stories about me than anyone else. "Local Man wins Medal of Honor." "Local Man opens Animal Shelter." "Local Man Charged with..." (Um, forget about that one.)

I'm almost ashamed to admit that I just made a DP blaster in an old-style suit with the flintlocks and named him "Duel Pistols".

I'm also surprised that the name wasn't taken!

Just created 'Lil' Betty Browning' - she'll be dressed in a close approximation of a Brownie uniform. Now if I could get a 'Throw Thin Mints' temp power...

Look for Doctor Caliber, coming soon!

'Getting DPd Hurts'
"It burns when I DP"?

Also, I snagged a "9mm Diplomat".

I named my DP/MM blaster Intercepting Shot and my DP/Traps corruptor Gunwolf, he was a wolfspider at one time.

Have a place holder for DP/EM blaster name Gunchi.

I also have a DP/EM blaster named Killing Doll 310.

Dark Respite is probably the only person in this thread that might get that reference, I'll be somewhat surprised if she doesn't.

I went with Poppacapotu
with the Biog:

Poppacapotu is a fiersome central American god returned to earth with a pair of flintlocks seized from conquistadors and imbued with his mystical righteous might.

Poppacapotu is not, I repeat NOT, just a poor excuse for dual pistols based puns. And his full name is most definately not Poppacapotu Inyoazz...
I couldn't resist... well - I could. But it wasn't worth the effort of will.

Great minds think alike . . . I usually go for names that amuse me, and this one does. I like your costume -- much better than what I made in a couple of minutes, but mine was on a placeholder so it didn't matter. Too bad we can't have a big puffy thick tail.

I actually used the name for my DP/Ice during Closed Beta on Test, so should I claim "First!"? What server are you on? Mine's on Guardian.

Yes, I get the reference.

Did you make him on Justice, by any chance?

I haven't gotten the pre-order yet (can't decide if I should wait or not), but I've already saved Pistol Packin' Panda on my server of choice. You know what they say about pandas, right?

"Eats, shoots and leaves."

My Dual Pistols Blaster is named A Royal Revolution.

It's a play on words from an old fighting game called Battle Arena Toshinden.

To this 4/4 beat, I'm in time with you. To this 4/4 beat, I would die for you. Your lovesick melody is going to get the best of me tonight, but you won't get to me 'cause I won't sing.
