If this isn't random, I don't know what is.
We haven't done a "random name" character contest in six months, so I think it's about time we revisited this always-fun concept. It's pretty straightforward and a great way to stretch your creative muscles.
Go to the Seventh Sanctum Superhero/Villain Name Generator and choose "10" from the number of names to generate. Leave the other selection boxes at their default and hit "Generate". Your character(s) must be based on one of these generated names. Try your best to limit yourself to one spin of the wheel instead of generating names over and over till you get one you like!
It would also be fun to post your list of ten when you get them, just for grins.
I'll pick my personal favorites when the week is over, with the one I like best being featured in the right column for the week. The rules otherwise are the same as always:
No limit on entries this week, so knock yourselves out. Just make them good!
Here’s my list. I’m kind of partial to Scream Child.

Sea Hand
Shadow Hatchet
Shrinking Negator
Trace Cancellor
Vermillion Nuke

http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/dionne-jinn/2012/11/DionneJinn-SeaHand.png
Lynx Panther and Wolf Spook sound funny, too. Might give them a try later…
Here’s Bronzeclad! It’s funny. I had an idea for a similar superhero named “Midas.” He has metal arms that he uses to fight crime. http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/q565/theconq/William-Bronzeclad.png
He is just over two inches long. He lives in a pink and yellow castle. His best friend is a ceramic skull named Silent Phillip. He is one of the criminal world’s greatest masterminds. He is…Robot Fish!

Wasp Hornet – is it a Wasp or is it a Hornet? Will YOU get close enough to find out?
I’m at work now, and I can’t access the name generator because the system is blocking it, but I note that Hyperion is showing up amongst the generated names, so I figured I could at least do something tonight to save someone a web search:
http://www.theoi.com/Titan/TitanHyperion.html
Of course, the time saved will be eaten up in wading through this site, but it might inspire something.
Short version: Hyperion was a Titan in Greek mythology.
I’ve heard and read (see, among other things, Hyperion by Dan Simmons, and Marvel’s Hyperion character from the Squadron Sinister/Supreme) the name before, but never quite understood the reference.
This was Venomous Barroness

http://i1162.photobucket.com/albums/q539/kjell17/Hero%20Machine%20Creation/KericsMechanostar.jpg

A rich philanthropist superhero reprograms a robot from the future into his personal assistant.

The day her old life was flushed away, her new life began. Rescued by a cockroach known only as Andre, her beautiful scales fortified, her delicate fins replaced by razor sharp metal, she became the world’s first tropical fish assassin. Now sharing a tiny multi-coloured treasure chest with a crab named Brent, she awaits Andre’s orders. She is as deadly as she is beautiful. She is Robot Fish 2.0

Robot Fish 3
Before the assimilation of his tank, Murray’s dream was to play in the NFL. Now his designation is 7 of 3.6 million. Refishtance is futile…
http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/djuby/2012/11/djuby-robotfish3.JPG
Well… I hope to make more of them, but my time for creating is very short… T_T

Transbee
http://imageshack.us/a/img835/9160/thatlyntransbee.png
OK, the first one for this round: Crimson Gal, the sidekick of Golden Age superhero the Crimson Avenger, who I just invented. I tried to give her a kind of 1940’s look:
http://i744.photobucket.com/albums/xx88/jzelger/JackZelger-CrimsonGal.png
Also and old one. And also find the name in the Seventh Sanctum.
Negative Blade
http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2012/05/Tarkabarka_Negative_Blade.png
Really old, i made for when i use the Tarkabarka.
Next up is Steel Slice. He’s a modern day superpowered samurai, who uses a mystical sword that can cut through anything. Here, he’s taken out an enemy chopper with only his blade:

http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/320/a/e/tiny_axe_by_melmo44-d5l8d44.jpg
My next, maybe last entry is incomplete. Something went screwy when I tried to do something with the backgrounds and I couldn’t seem to edit it anymore. Don’t worry, Jeff, those glitches are very rare in Hero Machine these days! 🙂
Anyway, it was just a funny one I put out there, so it wasn’t a serious contender. So, please imagine a nice background and funny word balloon… 🙂 It’s “Blessed Wasp,” a name so goofy I had to do something with it:
http://i744.photobucket.com/albums/xx88/jzelger/JackZelger-BlessedWasp.png
I got a bunch, but i lost the list, it included:
Ruby Fire
Royal Fighter
Goddess Sting
Imperial Sting

Pyrohawk may just be one of the coolest name combos ever.
http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/4379/reptronmagnuspyrohawk.jpg
Sonicascade was really fun to create. Might be my best scene picture.
http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/2330/reptronmagnussonicascad.jpg
Tried going for Mechashadow, but I couldn’t get my idea right.
Thanks to all the people who helped confirm what I thought on OCD, I have taken their advice and moved the color down the legs!

In the year 384583466, the mission to Ghy44 discovered life not smart enough to hide from humanity. Veb, our xenobiologist, said it looked like one of the machines used in Earth’s distant past. A ‘Cat.’ He also said the local fauna tend to have blue hides and green eyes because of their cyanide-based metabolism. He dubbed it ‘the Cyan Cat,’ and said it likes caves like this one very much. Seven metric tons or so.
