Abyssal Titles

Is that 'Madness *Wrapped*' or 'Madness *Draped*' or just an unholy mix of the two?
It's Madness Wrapped in the Pleasures of Infinitely Obscured Wisdom.


Sorry, I must have been in a hurry.
 
A few I have used or plan to use as PCs and NPCs:


Envoy Who Heralds the Storm


Odalisque of Oblivion


Princess of Frozen Smiles and Broken Dreams


Costumier Draped in Shrouds


Faceless Under the Mask


Echoes of a Child's Tearfilled Prayers


Pilgrim Who Treads Forbidden Paths

Creepy.


I like it.


Though I might go with:


Echoes of a Child's Tearfilled Pleas


Is what I thought I read at first.


And My Own Addition:


The Unnamed Horror Chilling the Chasm of Evil's Soul.


Innocent Child of the Stillborn Maiden


Eater of Nightmares
 
I imagine even the Abyssals tire of the longwindedness of it all, even with their flair for the Doomed Despair of the Darkness. And Doom.
...So, they do some judicious pruning as they grow in age and power, and just cut their name down to the quintessentials


In my example above, although 'Panderer' seem the likely candidate for such a pruning, 'Stillborn' holds a wee bit more menace in my mind for some reason Wink (unless the Abyssal in question happens to be the mother of all pimps...).
Of course they get tired of it, but the Malfeans won't let it slide if they do not use these long names seeing it as insentive to end the world quickly.
 
I made an extremely limp-wristed goth Nethermancer as a satricial character in an Earthdawn game named "The Anagogic Tempest".


I think that entire concept would work equally well as an Abyssal.
 
Or you can take a page from Dilbert with 'Phil, the Prince of Heck'.  Instead of a pitchfork, he carries a giant spoon.
 
I know most of ..if not all of you hate the chosen of the sun trilogy. However, after reading all these names I came to think...what if Wren chose to follow the death gods?


What would his abyssal name be?
 
Wren?  Solar?


The First Solar to convert would be named Caine.  Cannonically, anyways.
 
Angelic Pedagogue of World-Ending Sophistry.  An adorable girl in white who sweetly, and very convincingly, argues that the best thing a person can do is commit suicide and serve the Malfeans in the Underworld. She goes by Sophie.
 
Kerberos Of The Desultory Currents


Nurse The Hardship Of His Flock


Burnished Future Lost To Yesterdays


Discordant Hymn Within The Blood


Shame Ascends The Steeple Vein.


Bouyant Soul Tied In Sinews
 
we threw in a "The Last Lover" in a story we write with my friend. he was introduced by us as a means to (literally) fuck the sanity out of her twilight-to-be. he fulfilled his mission well (even too well) and then was promptly wiped the floor with, by the twilight's sidereal lover.


also:


-pearls in blood (western daybreak)


-bitter joy (probably a day or something)


-dying laughter (dusk with a lot of compassion and a mortal adopted daughter. seriously.)


-deepest scar (necrotechnician daybreak)


ripped them all from doom metal/goth rock songs. aren't i just GRAND?
 
Crusader of the Abyss, Bloodpearl, Glorious Carnage, the Unholy Architect, Bell of Silence, Angman of Hopes, Holy Tainted Terror Priest (HTTP  :lol: ), Fallen Tears Poet (you all know him... FTP  :lol: ), Winters Wolf's Wrath (WWW  :lol: ), Flesh Ripper, Messenger of Doom, Moon Devouring Prince...


These are the names of the NPCs and PCs we used in my abyssal game.


I like short and strong names... mainly because I'm french and my players to, and the translation of most names with "of the" "who" "in" tends to be very ridiculous.
 
What would his abyssal name be?
He Got Truly Lost ? :lol:


Seriously though, I think something with "son" and an idea of violence in his name (since the quasi Neverborn was titled Lord or Father of Murder), but I can't find anything funny at all right now
 
Thirteen Bell Tolls of the Funeral Dirge


My ST gave that to my only Abyssal (that I ever had) after her first mission, I fell in love with her right there... my Abyssal that is.
 
Child's Last Breath Of Innocence Lost - Apparently a daybreak caste. Used in a game I played in. Wicked Sorceress.


Fallen Star of Broken Glass and Soulsteel - Another abyssal in a game I played in.


Portentous Breaker of Blood Oaths - Another abyssal from the same game.


Cold Flotsam on the Crashing Surf with Eyes of Black Water - The abyssal from the game I'm currently in.


Forlorn Hope Lost in a Wilderness of Despair - A wimpy abyssal in the game I'm currently in.
 
I prefer a little shorter ones for my own. Here's the ones from my campaign, all very tied to their own stories or how they were Exalted:


Conqueror born of Blood and Sand


Sister of the Betrayers


Granter of Wishes Uttered Alone
