I'm curious, what are people's Superhero names for MC?

I went for No-Thing, tried to headcanon it as MC saying their superhero name was nothing and it becoming their name. And I thought it sort of fit with how he doesn't have a set form anymore, his default form could be a pile of shit if his internal self image was terrible enough

But yeah what did others choose and why?
I chose "Adam" because I pictured him as the first of many to come. That didn't go as planned with H.E.R.O. already working in the shadows, but the name is still cool in my head and it works well with his relationship with Ella, like she's the snake that gave him the "forbidden fruit".

Mine is Shade, a pure path I took in this one, I always feel edgy reading into the story, I believe I named him that because he seems to be an important piece that will play into the future, naturally, not just because he's the MC but because of his godlike powers that is, to save life, either by fighting or healing and protecting others and in this messed up setting/world where humans have no place but be constantly be put in danger to almost no one's care, a little shade that will save them from all that horror is what he'll be.

I chose Jacket because I'd been replaying Hotline Miami recently when the choice came up the MC covers himself in full body armor when doing superhero activities.

Little did McDude McManlyman realise when that Lovecraftian horror approched him, he'd be destiny had come calling... So he was reborn, and donned the mantle of McHeroman! :eek:

I like a bit of stupid humour every now & then, and the name(s) just make me giggle at some of the most inappropriate times in the story.:sneaky:
Me I went for Revan cause I was playing KOTOR again and I love Revan.

I like the motivation behind this a lot! "Adam" would probably, in hindsight, have made a good villain name for poor Kenny considering his shtick was birthing mini monsters? But I really like your retconned reasoning as well lmao

I feeel this, agreed that I always feel my inner 13 year old edgelord pumping his fist every other scene. My original name idea was "Sludge" but I almost overdosed on the edge. Very apt name tho, plus as a shade I think there's an image of something without any set form so its doubly cool.

Mine will always and forever be "Not [characters regular name]" i feel like that emphasizes his intelligence :HideThePain:
The MC is actually quite smart by all indicators, he's just generally lazy. He only comes into his own when he gets his powers and applies himself to perfection with them.

Very much a case of 'I don't know what to do with my life' right up until he meets Ella.

mine is Shadow because it sounds cool (not because he's bla-) and it's quite funny how my name is the same as a dog.

I'd say he has a good "fight" IQ but no he's not quite smart. He has also "not applied himself to perfection" in terms of his powers as there are others who have progressed just as or faster than him in terms of growth with their powers such as met (or any twins, or the superhuman "exception" who got to level 5 in a month) so would they be applying themselves beyond perfection?

Every one of MCs high school friends think it's werid that MC is going to R&X, MC openly admits it's only because of his daddy (blackmail), he falls asleep in class and has been doing so for YEARS, and then you have all the examples of stupidity in game like him 100% convinced amber was a camgirl because "Blue fingernails", most of the "smart" (beating valravn honorably, not getting caught in sin infiltration etc) are player choice dependent and shouldn't be attributed to every single MC (like corruption)

Edit: Also without stupid dumb luck (syla being MC mom while also being connected to an apostle that can help you train while drugged up) MC is missing 1/3rd to 1/4th of his power (or whatever 120/your power is) that really doesn't seem like he's getting all his power through "him applying himself"

My dude really explained how dumb MC is, it's quite admirable as it is annoying, how you talks down to our MC but eh ok.
