Metahumanity has a tendency to anthropomorphize their gear, be it guns to vehicles, it's just natural for many of us to even name these tools.
So whether its a trusty hold-out pistol or that beat up van your rigger keeps putting back together, what are some of the items you have Named? |

my Sniper named his Rifle, Betsy, even one incarnation of him had a weapon personality & a commlink implanted in the rifle so the weapon & he could talk on missions where he had to wait a long time for a signal.

My last character had a pair of dice he called The Ladies. He would hold The Ladies out before each run and let the team blow on them. Everyone did this because they knew The Ladies could get jealous if they didn't, and you don't want to see a pair of jealous ladies...

I used to, then I watched CSI back in the day too much and decided it was better to change guns every so often, I liked certain models, just replaced them.

My group posthumously named the shark they weaponized via Oxygenate and Levitate spells "Gary Busey".
This being after a night of drinking copious amount of hot jala. I think we eventually decided that terrestrial Jalwah trees were a product of the Awakening, and that they appeared in some form or another across many worlds and metaplanes, akin to breen. ~Umi |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I think this got brought up on a thread about shapechange when I pointed out the statline for the blue whale and someone suggested levitating it and doping it up on K-10. |

Used to have a Troll Lonestar HTR member who's main gun was a MMG named Bubba.

I had a dwarf once with a pet rock named Ron, he'd take it on missions and even have one sided conversations with it. The dwarf had latent awakening and so half way through the campaign he learned conjuring and then the rock was able to talk to the rest of the team too, much to their surprise.
