WTF: Evil name generator

Weird Tool Files #8: Evil name generator

We’ve all spent weeks looking for the perfect name for the ultimate villain in a new campaign… or not. In any case, using this evil name generator will keep you from naming a villain “Douchebag”!

Have fun not working too hard on that villain and generating his name at random. After all he’s only one of the building blocks of your campaign.

More WTF!

  1. i tried the random name generator with devouring, seduction, and disgusting for word modifiers. Here’s what i got:

    Carnallust The Rancid
    Hungerpus The Beguiler
    Lovebelch The Eater
    Lovebrood
    Lovespawn
    Stenchpassion The All-devouring
    Stinkcharm The Seducer
    Stinklover The Hungry
    Stinkpus The Flatulent
    Vilelove

  2. Man these sound like Fantasy STDs!

    lol!

  3. “The Fantasy STD Generator” is an even weirder tool, and something that I even think the Book of Erotic Fantasy missed…

    …not that I’ve read it (cough cough)

  4. Can you name the villain in your campaign Hungerpus The Beguiler? I don’t think so. My players would make fun of it for years - unless it was meant to be funny.

  5. Evilspawn the Sorcerous.

    Err… That’s really threatening, I’m sure.

  6. yeah i couldn’t realistically use any of those names. The evil name generator is a cool idea however it skews towards the side of humor. Don’t get me wrong humor is an essential element, but if the main villain in my campaign was stench passion the all devouring i don’t think i could take him serious.

    However, think about stench passion the all devouring. What would that be and how could it be cooler? Maybe an ooze dragon that dissolves organic material into a poisonous cloud that constantly surronds it and the cloud can dissolve things too. That covers stench, and all devouring. Its personality could be very passionate about consuming anything around it. Now it just needs a better name. The point is I think the generator works to start the wheels turning.

    Granted i am stretching it a little bit because i don’t think everyone would have this same approach. I sat there hitting the “generate names” for a while until i decided how i could make it work for me.

  7. Generator have that power over me too. I sit there hitting the submit button to see what comes up.

  8. Tehehe

  9. Random Name Generators are great when you just go through until you find some you like and pull them out, that’s how we ended up with the Halfling Paladin named Mimosa Hornblower!

    Sean: hahaha, watch out for Lovebelch the Eater!

  10. [...] I need to share this with you:  the top Google search keywords through which people end up on Dungeon Mastering is “evil names” and “evil name generator”…  And these people end up on my semi-rant article about generators: WTF: evil name generator [...]
