(TFT) .........and the names

["Cas and Lisa \(also Silvia, Max & Viveka\) Liber" <casliber@ozemail.com.au>]

..........another matter of taste which i found highly amusing was names and
how players felt about them. Tastes ranged from conservative; there was one
GM who insisted all characters had to have names sounding like they came out
of Tolkien ('Elendil' etc). This same GM also felt that the majority of
adventureers were male so when you created a character you were male unless
you rolled a '1' on a d12.
At the other extreme was a guy who was rather eccenrtic, whose characters
had names like 'Prancing Hepatitis'. Mind you the player in real life became
wierder, getting lots of tattoos and piercings and dating a girl he could
proudly state had chopped off the tip of her own finger, and then he
disappeared and was never seen again.
