Name These Guys and Win a Prize! :D

[Fubz 300]

We're needing help to name this clan of ponies for our RPG

 

The easiest way to explain them, is that they are anti-ponies. Although that's a pretty clumsy name for them, we're needing something smooth.

They come from an alternate dimension their corruption spreads across Equestria as they take over (don't worry I'm not spoiling the story). They look like this:

Their corruption spread is like that of the Majin saga in Dragon Ball Z, where they would become enslaved by them and much stronger and leave a visible mark, i.e. they'd be darker or something.

There are 8 of these guys in total.

They are also very evil if you haven't noticed.

 

So the name should be something which we can not only attribute to the actual anti ponies, but even suffix them to their corrupted minions.

 

The prize you ask?

For the best idea

-We'll feature either an OC of your choice in the game for a real nice part

-Or we'll have your name attributed to a character if you don't have an OC :l

Winner: The Pirate Prince

For good ideas

-We'll feature you OC in the game (Yay )

Winners:

-Lightning Bristle

-<insert more winners here>

We'll include you in the Thank You list as well (best prize ever)

 

Here's our earlier discussion on it: http://talesofequestria.mlpforums.com/thread-135.html

Chaotic Ponies is too similar to Discord, we can't do that, even though it's a great name, we still want some originality.

 

Please help and don't be shy to have a go

Any questions as well? Also minding the 100 character minimum limit, you could add a bit about your OC so we fit him/her in really nicely

 

EDIT (read this)

These main enemies have been named the Eldriquines. So the top prize has been given to The Pirate Prince.

We still need evil and sinister names for other enemies so if you manage to think of a sinister name for an enemy we could use, write it here, and if it gets chosen we'll feature your OC in the game!

Our enemies are from Equestria and beyond, so let your imagination flow Even if you have random sketches of pretty sinister creatures we'd appreciate it!

 

Mini Advertisment: http://talesofequestria.mlpforums.com anything to ask about this just PM me (we're still open for artists and storywriters, Yay~)

Well, since these look like unicorns and all.. I'm gonna go on a limbs and call it...

 

"Chao-corns".

 

Too original? Or too bland? Let me know!

[Mephala 2,633]

Anti ponies.

Chaos ponies.

OH GODDAMIT

 

If all of them have a similar colour scheme, do something carnival related, like the Carnival Clowns or something (IDUNNOLOL DON'T JUDGE ME). Carnivals are scary as hell XD

 

EDIT: I don't want the other idea I posted used so I got rid of it.

Sorry, it's part of my fanfic, so...XD

They're not all Unicorns P: Wouldn't fit them all. I'm liking the Chao bit, but I fear it's a little unoriginal :/ With Sonic especially. Copyrights are scary as well.

But they're not clowns :'( regarding colour schemes, I guess they'll be dark rather than your fancy rainbows.

The Donec? I've thought about making a game or book series with something of this name... but I never get around to doing anything creative anymore, so you can use it since it will probaly be more produtive than anything I could do any ways

[Mephala 2,633]

@@Fubz, I'm not implying they're clowns, I'm implying that the colour scheme is actually similar to that of a jester or a clown.

Other suggestions:

-Anghytgord

-Dinistrio

-Dysharmonia

-Smierc

 

Google Translate is yo' best friend.

[LoKé kRude 31]

Got a few more ideas The Malus? The Neteris or the Lues? That all I have for now. but there will be be more , also PinkieDa Shy is right google translate is your best friend

[XrosOver 613]

I'm gonna say Paradarks. A combination of the words paradox and dark (obvious).

 

Any person, thing, or situation exhibiting an apparently contradictory nature.  (definition of paradox)

[Fubz 300]

I'll decide with the team later Thanks for all the suggestions guys, we've got already got lots of applicable suggestions here yo guys are awsum :3

Keep them coming! D:

Edited December 18, 2012 by Fubz

[HunterTSN 1,444]

These are all really good suggestions, but keep coming up with more, never too many suggestions. I like Paradark, but it sounds a little strange to me. 

[XrosOver 613]

Another entry is simply Dark Horse.

 

The definition of Dark Horse is a person who reveals little about himself or his activities, esp. one who has unexpected talents or abilities.

I like the take on combining Paradox with something, just that paradarks sounds like ducks.

A lot of these are a bit funny to say Dinistrio sounds alright, Dysharmonia is too similar to Discord Smierc's actually nice, but again sounds weird to say :l

Thanks for the suggestions We've still not decided though. Please help!

[Umbra Thunderwing 82]

I'm usually good with names, let me try and think of a couple for you.

The Equipposite?

Majin ponies? XP

Malicide?

The Inanimalia?

Parumbra?

@@Fubz,

I was about to go piddle around with Google translate, but then I had a thought:

this clan could call themselves the Equinaries of Duthal perhaps?

huh...Duthal sounds like something out of Skyrim!

you could also fall back on the classic title The Fallen

Edited December 19, 2012 by Red

[Lightning Bristle 33]

I tried poking around a Thesaurus for a bit and came up with this:

The Arcanequines - (combination of "arcane" which means secret/mysterious and "equines" which are, obviously, horses or, in this case, ponies

 

It sounds a bit weird too long, though. :S

[The Pirate Prince 105]

Bad horses?

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X1VjGsZeyw

 

Seriously though,

 

Corrupt ponies, shadow ponies, chaos ponies, twisted ponies (hence the horn and them becoming twisted in the head,) spiral ponies, helix ponies.

 

Oh, eldritch ponies.

 

Edit

 

Hollow ponies. If one of their powers is creating a image of themselves, you could have a holo-hollow pony.

 

fel-ponies.

Ooh that sounds really good, actually thinking about it now, we need a name for where these guys come from as well Equinaries of Duthal, sounds awesome.

Personally, I think it sounds epic! Yes it's a little long, but this is my own favourite right now, so I'll try push for this one P:

 

Oh, eldritch ponies.

 

Likey. Reminds me of Equinaries of Duthan (Red's suggestion). 

 

I'll see what the team thinks thanks for these awesome suggestions! But I feel that they're wanting something absolutely perfect :< so keep them coming!

A name for the area they come from (they come from an alternate Equestrian dimension) might help you out

 

EDIT

 

ELDRITCH ARCANEQUINES OF DUTHAN! Lol. Sounds crazy.

The Unbridled.

 

Unbridled means uncontrolled and unconstrained but also referring to bridles, equipment to direct a horse.

That's smart

 

I think I'll need to change about the prizes a bit, I'd like to thank for all these good suggestions as we might use these names for other enemies as well as these guys.

 

There we go, edited the prizes

Did you get that from Dr. Horrible(just going out on a limb here)? Lol, I saw the Neil Pactrice Harris refrence in your signature XD

[SørenWolf 227]

what about Cacoponies? a combination of the word Cacophony and Ponies. 

and just for the record: Cacophony means discord or "sound that is loud or not harmonious"

Perhaps use something with Pandemonium? that sounds like it could be good

Pandemonius ponies? Pandeponies? something like that

Edited December 23, 2012 by SorenWolf

[Concord 1,982]

Maybe Pronies

 

Maybe Interponies.

 

Maybe Manties.

 

Maybe Antitetons. (This one sounds most interesting to me)

 

Maybe Conflicies.

 

Just trying to combine a few words with another word that has to do something with oppositon...

[Devious Detonation 442]

The Defilers. (Soooo original... <_< )

The Everfreed.

 

I'll write down more ideas here when I come up with ideas.

 

And, I might talk about my OC, or Ponysona, whichever it is more adequate.

I don't need to speak about it, it's in my siggy!
