protip: don’t cross them off, write who they are on the list (eg “Rivermeadow blacksmith”) so you can remember when the players come back to them a million sessions later

One of my favorite things is giving fantastic creatures ordinary human names. My group will never forget Walter the minotaur who did absolutely nothing interesting aside from being named Walter.

This is how my campaign ended up with Grond the ogre and Fëanor the magic item craftsman.
And how mine has Kevin, Kevyn, Keven, Kyvyn, etc. A a family of gnomes (all pronounced Kevin) that are traveling merchants and blame not remembering an incident by saying it was a different Kevin.

“Yes, okay, my name is… kllllaaaarrrrrg… i-ifer. Klargifer Caltrop.”
“Klargifer is a strange name for a halfling.”
“Yuh- yeah. Yeeesss. I suppose it is. That’s why I hate my parents.”
“Yeah? And what are their names?”
[Suddenly, a wizard or something appears and casts silence on everyone. So you can’t ask that the question anymore]
Wingus and Mingus Caltrop. They hated their names and parents too. It’s a family tradition.

John and Sara Caltrop just wanted their son Wingus to have a unique name, unlike their entirely common names

Yes, the psychopathic baby eating lunatic definitely makes fascists feel normal and relatable…

No, it makes fence-sitters feel like there’s something to identify with in a baby eating lunatic and slowly shifts the Overton window further and further toward normalizing straight up evil.

The boys creators: “make sure you make him really stupidly evil, so there’s no confusion about how evil he is”
Conservatives: “damn this guy’s kinda cool actually”

Because the internet has a thing for identifying with assholes. Look at Rick Sanchez or Dennis Renolds or Starship Troopers or Warhammer 40K or Helldivers. Take any character or group that’s explicitly coded as terrible in the source material, hand it to the Internet, and they’ll start making memes about it and eventually unironically decide that character is legitimately great actually. And the people spamming the shit everywhere will always act as though such a thing could never happen.
Meanwhile in the US…
