What are the pet names of your pets, running partners, and favorite weapons?


My character has a pit bull who's full name is Therapy.

one of his running partner is called Bunny... He's a troll who got drunk one session, passed out woke the next day with a bunny tattoeed to his forehead. He used to be called Gravel Pit.



Favorite weapon is a modified Ares Predator 3 with the inscription, "Asprin"
Best cure for a headache ;)

I had a character with a sporting rifle on which was engraved "The Best Defense Against Magic". There was also a sniper rifle with "Ultima Ratio Regum" engraved on it.

I have an NPC who named her rifle Paycheck and an Ancient who (secretly) calls his bike Ania in honor of his fallen sister,

I'm playing a satyr named Ol' Scratch at the moment who has a Remington Roomsweeper-equivalent pistol with "The Compensator" engraved along the barrels. He also has a huge-ass shotgun with an extended barrel with "The OVERcompensator" on it.

It was humorous when I came up with it.

I just had Noah the rigger with 'The Ark', your typical runner-armed-to-the-teeth black van. Again, more humorous back then...

The current PC i'm constructing is a.....chicken. (Dwarf Cosmetic Mod) He is a drone rigger named is Samuel Crowe.

That's beside the point, tho. The 'pet' he has is an intelligent, wisecracking robotic parrot (Generic Surveillance Drone mod) that can transform into his primary weapon (Shotgun mod). It's called the Multirole Airborne X-tector (M.A.X)...or simply, Max.

And we have a Shadowrun variant of Steve Purcell's Sam & Max. Well, not the same morphs but still.... :D

I've got a blackberry kitten that I call Kottr living in my flat. I'm working on a weapon focus/Frost Aura anchor battleaxe that I intend to name Kaldrjarn. The PC is question is a Scandinavian dwarf; the names are Old Norse.

The rigger in that group named all her vehicles and drones. She was Reverend Speed. The miniblimp she used for overwatch was named God, and had an MMG mounted on it to strike down her foes with bolts from the heavens. The Rolls Prairiecat was Jesus, because it was amphibious and could drive on water. She had a wheeled drone named Moses and a couple of VTA drones called Gabriel and Raphael.

If I ever get a chance to be a player again I want ot make a guy loosly based on the Boondocks Saints.

He'll have 2 pistols which will be named "Rapture" and "Forgivness"

He'll probably be an Adept that believes his powers are granted by God himself, to be his punishing angel on earth.

Other than that Can't really think of anything thing else off hand as most of my groups nick/pet names for each other happen to be things like "dumbass" and "fucktard" but its tough love since they all work together nicely.

Lessee . . .

I have an NPC Combat Decker by the name of Rika Yuki. Her icon happens to be Rika from Phantasy Star 4 (and has the knowledge skill of Old-School Video Games no less). She's got a Savelette Guardian that's been blued and has engraved into it the phrase "7th Heaven".

The Shadowrun group I used to play with actually had some serious fun with naming and customizing their guns in-game. I wish I could remember what one of them did, 'cause it was a great Latin phrase out of a book.

My character is a Human Looking Ghoul whose PCs have referred to him many, many times, simply by the phrase, "He EATS PEOPLE!"

Gun-psycho Dwarf a few campaigns back (pre LotR movies, for extra kudos) referred to his guns in a smarmy, seething "My presccciooousssss".

Not to mention the infamous Grizzly Grunion ( ^5 ) and the Great Stuntie Puntie.

I have a custom shotgun this game with lots of power built into it, burstfire of course. Anyone have any suggestions on what to call it?

Our current rigger has named his Bison and his Bulldog van, The Bull, and Mutt respectively.

My old rigger char reffered to his various drones by nicknames.
Hummingbirds = his three silent running micro spy rotodrones.
The Hellcat = Steel Lynx with MMG and missile launcher
The Finger = Condor with a loads of sensors, FDDS, and a turret with a separate targeting spotter that could target near anything on the ground from any altitutde.
The Hornet = modified rotodrone with an Ares Alpha in a turret.
The Vindicator = A Winjana jet drone with a Vindicator mini-gun and missiles.

And my mildly excentric Sorcorer char who kept fancy rats as pets, they were named after all my previous RL pet rodents. Dusty, Rio, Lunchbox, Popcorn, Genki, Skitters, Dig-Dug, Possum, and Rex.

Sounds like a friend who had carved into his Defiance "The Silencer" because it shut people the fuck up.

Had a PC with a Aramis (3 Musketeers) fixation who named his Pred 3 "the Pen". He had a running feud with the melee adept a la Gimli and Legolas. When his body count is higher, he would say,"Truly, the Pen is mightier than the sword."

I had a PC who was a former priest (played by a real Doctor of Divinity student) who had his Heritage line suit modeled after medieval Catholic robes... he was always clad in the Armour of Faith.

My charictor called himself "Wolf", but after finding out that work at the post office and that I brought 30kg C4 with me on the run I've been called "Postal" ever after.

I'm more attached to the bombs than the guns, but they keep disapearing. Maybe I'll name the detonator...

One of my old players habitually gave EVERY CHARACTER he played a pet rock, which he named PETER.

EVERY TIME!!

He actually had a small rock which he would place on the table and speak to. It had a face carved into it and everything.

Man, was he weird... All I can hear in my head right now is "Pee-err Raak" - the best textual phonetic approximation of the odd West-Country accent in which he always used to speak that name. Like a mantra. Whooooo....

Yeah, it was in the user's manual for Reason.

Something which Blackjack had in one of his rants on the Shadowrun Archive was a gun with the phrase "With this bullet I thee wed" written down the side of it. I found that particularly funny.

Just thought I'd note that king Louis XIV of France had this engraved on his cannons, which is where the phrase originates.

Played a dwarf a while back who had a fully cutom SMG...nothing stock (I just wanted to see what I could do with canon, and bought it). The thing was chromed, personalized grip, biometric safety, the works... That was one "Wiz Bang."

Well, if one were in the habit of straddling and riding one's sister on a regular basis, they'd probably want to keep that secret :)
