Well, There Goes My Secret Identity

Mild-mannered writer by day...butt-kicking, whip-cracking, wing-ed avenger by night. (Secret power? Hyphens, apparently.)


So I had WAY too much fun with the Superhero Factory found here. Muchos thanks to Ashley Awesome--which is a fantastic superhero name, btw--for pointing me to it.

Two minor complaints: The titles are automatically generated and for some reason, I couldn't get any hair color but red to work. Red's cool, though.


Possible names for my superhero
Cat 'o Nine Tails--I rather like the idea of being a cat with wings. The name itself is kinda dangerous and ideally I'd also have cat ears or something.
Whiplash--Sassy. Has potential.
Neurobabe--My power would be messing with your brain. Bonus, it makes me laugh.
Lynx--I'd be the forbidden love child of Angel and Kitty Pryde.
Ampersand Princess--Defeating villains with the power of...typography?
Raptor Lass--This name is a) made of awesome and b) probably more suited to the Evil League of Evil.


Any other ideas? Let me know if you make your own superhero because it's very addicting.

I had the hair problem, too. Starting over fixed it, but it was annoying. Also, I prefer to be called "The Winged Librarian."

P.S. I like your buttons.

Ashley--Thanks, I'm rather fond of the buttons as well. And "The Winged Librarian" is an awesome name.

Dude, I wouldn't mess with you.

Q said...

I can never come up with good superhero names.

Did you see that you could change the hair color in the 'color' tab area? I'm currently making myself into a superhero. xD

I like Raptor Lass, personally... ^_^

I think the red hair is sassy! I'm a fan of whiplash - simple, but gets the point across.

Neurobabe all the way!

I made a superhero, and my name came up as the highly original "Professor Blistering Hottie." It suits me so well....

Thanks for the link. It was a great way to spend 25 minutes on a Friday afternoon.

Whee! Thanks for the great link. I posted mine on my blog:

Now we have to band together to form a league of kick-butt female superheroes! What shall we call ourselves?

Haha! I Love it! I'm making mine right...now!
