Arctruis needs a name! Vote!
Arctruis needs a name! Vote!
Here's the situation: Over the last couple months I've been race/gender changing pairing with pets to see what feels best. I'm a real stickler for "chemistry", and to say I've struggled finding chemistry on this character is a MAJOR understatement. However, I think I have.
I finally have race changed to a male night elf, and after some thought on what pet I would like by Cyven's side, I decided to give Arctruis a shot. I just couldn't use Gondria. For me a cat and a nelf is to cliche, and I wanted to be anti-cliche. So, no bow and cat for my Nelf hunter. He's using a GUN and BEAR!
But, I digress. Last night was wonderful. I found Arctruis on my first pass ever on actually looking for him. About an hour later, after a couple weeks of coming close, my 2s partner and I cracked 2k with my big bear running by our sides. It's a wonderful match.
Now, I just need a name. I like to name my exotics after American Rock Icons. In that vain and the obvious good fortune Arctruis has brought, I'm putting "Mojo" at the top of my list. BTW-Jim Morrison (greatest front man of all time imo) was often referred to as Mojo.
I have also thought of Ursoloc, which is based on RP. I have a story in the box ready to go involving the rare mob in Ashenvale with that name. This spirit beast would be that mob's spirit and have a connection with my character, Cyven.
Finally, I've thought about naming it my old-main's nick-name, Butha. This name has a strong personal meaning to me, as I have way too many days played as Buthaleirus (hence the nick-name, Butha), but I no longer enjoy playing the rogue class.

I am kinda torn between Ursoloc and Butha. I like the story you have for Ursoloc, but at the same time, I also find a strong personal connection to names and pets to be important to.
I finally voted for Ursoloc because of the story. I myself have written stories (well... in my head mainly haha) about some of my pets and that resonated most with me. I find it gives pets a personality and life.

Mojo sounds trollish to me, like just because it's mojo and all.

It could have been. As far as I know, I'm the only one running with him now as a Nelf. By chance was it yesterday, Thursday night? And, are you a Tauren BM hunter. If so, I tried to show you some "niceness". After I started shooting you, you just stayed mounted sitting still. I figured you were afk, so I didn't kill you and left you alone. It was right outside the alliance camp.
Oh and thanks everybody for your comments and votes!

I picked Mojo, just because Mr Mojo Rising said to, and I always listen to him. Butha as a tribute to your old char appealed too though.
