				 Re: Girlfriend Pretenders 
 I have a habit of naming various pretenders after my young daughter.  The idea of the cute little toddler actually being an aspect of a godlike undead creature has a certain appeal.  For example, neither sleeps or cares about their bodily functions.  Unfortunately, if my wife was to realize what I was naming after the child, I may find myself in trouble, so I have the opposite incentive Gandalf does to get the wife playing… |

 I name mine after players I have defeated. 
No names yet

				 Re: Girlfriend Pretenders 
 How about naming your children after units/pretenders of the game?

 |  I still wouldnt feel right doing it for my pretender (which I tend to think of as being me) but I can see it for favorite support units. Mages, healers, maybe a prophet.

				 Re: Girlfriend Pretenders 
 I can tell none of you are old married men.
 If I told my bigger half that I named a pretender for her the best I could hope for is a look of snide derision combined with a chill factor that would permanently erase Abyssia, all 3 eras, from the game files.

				 Re: Girlfriend Pretenders 
 I'll occasionally use my wife's name for a Pretender. Usually the Great Sorceress, but yes, I've already named the Great Mother chassis after her, and yes, with her knowledge. 
 We've been married going on 3 years.
