Need a good name for a unicorn
About 10 years ago in a great D&D campaign, we had a few sessions where a unicorn played a cool role. I'm in a different situation now, but was hoping to introduce one for a few sessions coming up in my D&D campaign...

The old DM even had a great name for his unicorn that has stuck with me to this day - Morning Frost. It just seemed to fit perfectly.

I don't want to steal/pirate his name, but I'm drawing a blank for another name. I'm terrible in coming up with creative names (I used Chovexani for a drow elf villainess a few sessions back...with permission, of course)

29. (HEY)
(maybe this isn't as weird as I think it is but I have to tell it anyway! A few minutes ago I was entering my husband's old D&D books into my LibraryThing and I was totally noticing the unicorns on the cover of a couple of the books!! And while ago I was asking if anyone still played this stuff or if the books were obsolete and he said some new stuff was coming out! or gonna start, or whatever. I don't know anything about this stuff but I think it's funny we talked about it just now.
I like Charlie Unicorn :headbang:)

60. Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 10:00 AM by SteppingRazor
If Morning Frost stuck with you, and none of your players were involved in that campaign a decade ago, go with Morning Frost. Or tweak it slightly -- Morning Dew, for example, or Morning Star.
