Mr. Lewis is sad... (in Contests)


QBBarzooMonkey April 4 2007 5:53 PM EDT

Poor Mr. Lewis. All of the namings on his items are running out! All the other NPM's have lots of named items!

Help Mr. Lewis name his items:

An Amulet of AC
A Trollskin Armor
A Pair of Tulkas' Gauntlets
An Elven Cloak
A Set of Chain Mail Leggings (thanks for the pants, PM!)
Ulfang Helm (4 months left)
Gou Nian Kuai Le (that's "Happy Year Of the Dog, everybody!" in Chinese) Mage Shield - 28 days left)
His-tzu (AxBow - 9days left)

If I pick an individual item name of yours, you get 250K.
If I pick 2 names you've posted, you get an item naming.
If you give me a theme I like, and I use all 8 of your names, you win a set of 2 item namings and 500k.

I am the sole judge, and the deadline is next Friday (the 13th!) at noon server time.

Here is a little bit about Mr. Lewis, for inspiration:

Mr. Lewis is a huge Silverback Gorilla. He is so big, he fires his full-sized crossbow like a pistol. He is Cap'n Mojo's first mate, and of course, he is a pirate. He tends to dress like a "dandy" - billowy shirts, velvet jackets, shiny boots. He likes purple. He always talks in the first person. Miss JuJu is a little-bitty Rhesus Monkey, and tends to spend most of her time riding on Mr. Lewis' left shoulder, and he refers to her as "Mr. Lewis' bodyguard". Whereas Cap'n Mojo is the brains of the group, Mr. Lewis tends to be the voice of reason. Their ship is called "SeaNinja".


Game on!!!
