I love naming our miniatures.
One of my favorite jobs here is coming up with all the names for our miniatures.
It's a small creative outlet (no pun intended) for me, and believe it or not, I put
a lot of time and thought into each name. Okay, maybe not *each* name. But a
lot of names. Sometimes I spend way too much time coming up with names, but
then again, some just come to me in an instant.

The one online reference I use the most is a site called 20000-names.com. It has
a lot of good names all organized by geography, gender, genre, and so on. It's
come in handy many, many times when I've been up against a deadline and try-
ing to come up with just the right name for a piece.
I'll tell you, even though I've worked hard for my Miniature Naming merit
badge, one false slip and it's crotch kicking time. If people like the names, they
keep it to themselves, locked away in a tiny satin box that they keep under their
pillow. "Good night, sweet fantasy name," they seem to say, caressing it like their
favorite LOL cat.

However, if they hate it, they can’t wait to track me down or ambush me, like a
ninja in a yellow Uma Thurman jumpsuit.

Laughing, pointing accusingly at my bespectacled head, they blurt it out, sound-
ing more and more like Paw Rugg from the Hillbilly Bears*. "Heh heh, so that
new succubus mini, her name's Quesadilla**, right? Quesadilla? Dang, Hawkins,
you're a dern fool galoot, ain't ya? Naming miniatures after Mexican food?
Shoot, you must be runnin' outta ideas. What's next, Taco the Dwarf? Har har
hardy har har!!!" Knee slapping ensues.

*Hillbilly Bears. Go Google it. I dare you.
**Hey, Hasslehoff, it's "Kasadya". Kuh-SOD-yuh, not "Kay-suh-DEE-ya". Stop
eating horse apples and watching reruns of Hart to Hart, you snuggie wearer.
Five years later, and I still get crap like that. Ask me sometime about Yera the
Water Buffalo Minotaur.
Sigh. I hate naming our miniatures.

Master Series Miniatures
Introduces
Dragoth the Defiler!
Bob Ridolfi's latest submission for Master Series Miniatures is this
magnificent Dragoth the Defiler! He's brooding darkly upon his
throne, while his faithful minionette stands by ready to hand him
his armor should any pesky adventurers arrive. He's our standard
heroic 25mm scale, so he makes a wonderful adversary for you campaign, or just a lovely display
piece! He also includes 4 different heads, so you can make him a Dire-Dead, Ghoul, Vampire, or put
on his helmet!
For more on Dragoth's personal feelings about this sculpt, and an insight into the mind of a defiler,
check out his interview on page 40!
Don't Forget about ReaperCon!
Later This Summer,
Master Series Miniatures
Will Have Yet Another
New Model That Will
Blow Your Socks Off!
