Hey everyone!

 

You guys have asked for a special unique forum badge for Deadfire and we want to make that happen! We will be adding an $8 Extra option from the Fig campaign where you will receive an additional forum badge to hoist on your sails! 

 

I am creating a new thread so that this discussion is separate from this  thread to avoid confusion since two different topics are going on. Lets form this pirate order you scoundrels!

Is this for a badge or a title?

 

I'll donate for either, but I'd rather not lose the existing magic-user title.

 

If a badge, is it in addition to the Fig badge? I'm running out of room ...

It's for a unique badge in addition to the Fig badge.

 

And hopefully, this unique badge here will be pirate themed.

 

Concerning the last remark, I think the forum badges should not be aligned in one column, should they?

It should be two columns I'd propose. There would even be space for 3 columns in one row.

Space, yes. The question is whether the board software offers this feature. ;)

Marauders doesn't sound intimidating or scary enough.

I've been kind of following this from afar and as an outsider, I can only ask, do you want your band to sound like a sports team... that loses all the time? The Obsidian Pirates sounds like a AAA team for the Padres, something else I wouldn't name my pirate band. I haven't spent any money, so I don't get a vote, but I think names that describe your band would be preferable to things like 'the Obsidian [name of mascot here].' Except for the Obsidian Flag. For some reason, probably the novelty, that isn't as irksome.

 

Well here's a Strawpoll for everyone to vote on.

How long should we poll for?

Huzzah! My choice is tied for lead... at one vote each for three different names. Edited by Eumaios

So shines the name so shines the name of Roger Young!

Why not use real boat names like the Obsidian Cacafuego.

 

Actually, that brings up a good point. You name the ship, not the band. Why not keep the original group name?  Maybe Latinize (Valianize?) it?

Obsidian Oyster Cult is a wonderful name for pirates. Bunch of men lootin', pillagin', and dancin' the night away.

I picked Obsidian Marauders as well. It's catchy and implies our dogging their office, which we normally do, anyways.
