Name Suggestions
Hey, y'all!
I'm developing a character for WolfOfTheNightSky 's superhero group 'The Legion.' He's based off of a beetle, and I have a lot of him and his powers and his personality fleshed out already, but I need help with his hero name.
His civilian name is Theodore "Theo" James. He's young, I think I decided on 17-18, but I kind forget??
Whoops.
His powers are based on beetle pheromones. They're mostly involuntary and he still struggles to
He can emit different 'pheromones' (they are referred to as 'scents,' usually, for simplicity. I don't wanna type pheromones all the time :/) for different purposes; one causes anger, one soothes, one is a distress signal, one confuses, etc. and he can even use them to influence (to a degree) other's decisions, thoughts, and emotions.
There are some serious limitations on this, however:
-They work at close-range only; he can't affect someone halfway across town or anything
-He can't control people with them; he can influence them to a degree, but he can't override survival instincts or deep-rooted opinions, traumas, investments, etc.
-The closer a person is to him or the more they trust him, the greater the effect his 'scents' have on them. His enemies wouldn't be as affected, for example, because they obviously wouldn't trust him.
I'd imagine he'd mostly (though not exclusively) use them to soothe shock/pain of his teammates when injured or use it as a distress signal when he himself is, because he just feels uncomfortable using them to 'drug' his opponents, especially when they don't have much of an effect on those who don't trust him and they're just another mental effort to keep track of.
They aren't tiring to use, per se, as they're involuntary on their own, but they're a natural function that occurs without his consent or even knowledge sometimes, so if he wants to emit a specific one he has to actually be focusing on doing so.
Anyway, I have a few name options—I'd really appreciate it if y'all would vote on your favorite ^^
1. Elytra/Elytron
This is in reference to the hard shell covering of a beetle's wings.
2. Permian
This is the time period in which insects further developed. (Or at least a time period highly associated with insects.)
3. Coleoptera
The Order (part of the scientific classification of organisms) of beetles. Might shorten it to 'Coleopt' or something if I choose this one.
Thanks guys! I appreciate your input ^^
