Naming convention for male widows & fortunatas?
I just give'm names. My female bane spider is named 'Direblossom'. My male fortunata/widow is named.... well crap, I don't remember what his name is. Probably one of my stock character names like 'Adelante' or 'Tavin Jerod' or 'X-Cross', something like that.
My widow is "Velsharess Orbb," or Queen Spider in Drow.
My crab is Selvetarm.
And yes, I'm a Forgotten Realms nerd.
Widowmaker?
I Like "fortunato".

I'll miss you all.
I went with "Dude Widow". Pretty self-explanatory.
Global = Hedgefund (or some derivation thereof)
Given that "widow spider" (latrodectus) is the name of both the male and the female of the spider genus that class of Arachnos agents are named after, there's really no problem.
I kind of like Knight Widow ________ myself, but yeah, Operative ________ works for me too.
Thanks for all the replies.

Players who have unlocked VEATs can make male versions of Arachnos Widows and/or Fortunatas. "Widow" is obviously a feminine noun, though I'm not sure about "Fortunata".
Has anyone ever come up with a naming convention for male characters of these ATs? "Widower" sounds kind of dumb to me, and again, I'm not sure what, if anything, you'd need to do to make a masculine version of Fortunata.
Any thoughts?
