The generator draws upon a variety of sources, from historical bandit groups to literary references and mythological figures, to offer a diverse range of name options. Below are some examples of name categories and the inspirations behind them. They showcase how thoughtful choices can add depth and character to your bandit group.
Name Category | Examples | Inspiration/Backstory |
---|---|---|
Historical Bandits | The Highwaymen, The Molly Maguires | Many historical bandit groups gained infamy (or sometimes, a strange form of admiration) for acts of defiance against authority. “Taking from the rich, giving to the poor” (regardless of veracity) fueled many legends. |
Mythological/Legendary | The Hydra’s Fangs, Fenrir’s Pack | Incorporating mythological animals or creatures links the bandits’ ferocity or attributes to a larger, pre-existing narrative. Fenrir, the wolf of Norse mythology, embodies untamed wilderness. |
Terrain/Environment | The Shadowfen Stalkers, Dust Devil Raiders | Names tied to the environment evoke location, and likely the group’s specialty. Shadowfens might be adept at stealth, where dust devils are chaotic and unpredictable. |
Virtues Turned Vice | The Merciful Reapers, The Steadfast Fiends | Create a ironic twist by taking a noble or generally desirable quality and turn it wicked, such as mercful reapers that hasten passing. |
