OK it's not really a competition as there's no prize But you have the chance to shape the names of the bots on Swiss's Server with his modified bots, which is the most used server these days. So How do we do this the answer is (amended rule change)

IF you have a name you post it in the thread. If the next poster has a name then they copy the names above and add there own name and cast a vote for one of the others if they wish. IF the next poster though doesn't have a name but likes one of those mentioned then they copy and past the names into their reply and increase the votes for that name by one. At the end of the week or month the top names are used to name all the bots needed.

So I will start it off in the next post. For those interested Swiss asked me if I could get this up and running.

So remember all the reavers are female so were looking for female like bot names here that fit the class. I'll Start. If you like this name change the score next to it by uping the score by one. Jocasta is mother of Oedipus in greek mythology.

Jocasta 0
Aske 0


Aske is a nordic name, it actually works pretty well on both a boy and a girl. "Ask" is a kind of tree "Aska" is ashes, it wouldn't surprise me if aske is derived from one of these. If I can make my intended see things my way, Aske will be the name of my firstborn daughter.

To my knowledge there's nothing especially special with the name, but I like the serene simplicity, tangled by a slight tranquil, somewhat sad, albeit still hopeful calm, feeling of this name.

EDIT: So, my mental picture of the girl named Aske. It's a practical, yet emotional girl, sitting by her knees by a narrow forest stream, playing across the hard rocks, washing a few shirts. She is focused on her task, yet a tuft of hair keeps getting in her eye, and she calmly puts it back behind her ear with one hand. Her clothes are well kept, but somewhat dirty due to everyday labour, and they're all in shades of brown and grey. This is a strong girl. Young, yet she has seen quite a lot, there is a serious edge to her, while she WOULD want to stray out into some wild girl fantasy, she also knows what must be done. This woman will need a true man to fully let her femininity blossom, to truly let that playful glint in her eye take hold, she'll need the selfcentered and stable type of man, in which she can trust, instead of as usual, the world trusting in her. Altough a fertile and very attractive woman, she will need that in a man, or she'll end up the man in the relationship, a kind of position where she'll never be truly happy.

Tuva 0

Also a nordic name, a modification of the somewhat more common name "Tova". "Tov" as such could mean a bundle of hair stuck together, which must be combed out. After a wet night, the female's hair will probably be a mess and have plenty of these "tovar", or if you simply have a bad hair day. To "Tova" is the action, the verb, describing the action of combing out your hair.

While, Tova gives me the impression of a stocky, happy and sexually liberated girl (perhaps even a bit *too* much! the one who'd grab you by the hair and drag you back in), Tuva, instead emanates a more slender, delicate feeling, spiced with a good deal of playfulness and a foxy, freckly, elusive femininity.

Tuva, as such, means something as well, it's most commonly paired with the swedish word "gräs", which means "Grass", and a "Gräs-Tuva" is simply a small patch of grass, slightly elevated from the surrounding grass. Once again, this will most likely be the name of my second daughter.

EDIT: A "tuft" of grass^^

Anyhow Tuva is the girl who'll you run after. Red hair, freckely, always a smile and she can run faster than just about anyone. She absolutely vibrates with youth and life, and her energy can even, at times, have a slight boyish touch. She can make any chore into a game, she can make anyone widen their grin, and no one has EVER told her to think before she speaks. She would have none of it anyway. Running through the field of grass, laughing with youthful fire, chased by a boy her age. She simply cannot decide if she'll let him catch up, or not, always being an inch from his grasp. Finally, after a game that seemed to go on forever, they both end up catching their breath, on their backs holding hands in the grass. The boy, proud that he caught her, and she, to kind of a soul to tell him that he really didn't. There's no need to say that, as they meet eachothers' gaze, smiling.


EDIT2: I know a guy who has four daughters and no sons, so he's the sole male, and he's got a fiery wife too. I never forget the reply I got I asked him how that worked out.
-"When they all freeze me out, it really sucks."

I wonder if Sparrisen forgot that it's reavers were naming here. They're beasts and warriors before they are women. My pick is Tordine, a feminine form of Thor, the viking god of thunder and war.

Hah, I think I got sucked into it, but that's me for ya!^^ However, I thought those names were pretty, and the reaver is a gal, so she deserves a pretty name! I also think that you should be able to put a vote on a suggestion that is not your own, in addition to popping a suggestion, or I can see we have a lot of winners with a total score of 0^^

I'm up for that rule change then. So you can now place a name and vote for another. Sadly So far the rush to vote/name hasn't really taken off.

At first I wanted to say Domina, because the reaver is the one who's dominating, but I decided to go for Cydrava. ..

Yea I'm gonna give a point to Tuva then. I like that name. Cute. But hey, I would not want to be turned inside out by her claws, that's for sure! Also, I'm going to add a new name as well. Xianne. I simply like the name and it means a lot to me personally. And I do think it fit OK for a Reaver.

my vote goes to Xianne, I don't have any idea of what kind of meaning it might present to smisfisk, but that name sounds good.
