Epic names

I just got a epic brook name, a brook called The Disembowelment of Sponges. Seems like the legendary giant sponge was defeated.

Share your epic names!

I recently encountered a Minotaur who had earned the title "the Abyssal Gristle." A friend commented that it could be a wrestler or MMA fighting name.

No idea - it perished in worldgen, the only kill of some otherwise insignificant elf.

The Abyssal Gristle really rolls off the tongue. Yeah I can see a WWF wrestler with it. :D

As for epic names, the very first world I created ages ago had a disturbing stream called "The Milky Wash of Pregnancy". For god sakes girls, don't bathe in that!

Had a civilization name for the dwarves known as "The last picks".  Gave me the feeling that I was keeping dwarfkind from being sentenced to a horrible end.

On another note, I had an old fort named SwordArmor which I found to be pretty badass.  I'd love armor made of swords now!  Shame a Dimetrodon forgotten beast with deadly dust put an end to the fort.

Doesn't really compare to all of these, but I thought "Ceilingstones" was pretty derpy. BEWARE OF STONEFALL TRAPS!

Randomly earned by an elven adventurer.

Cassandra likes elves for their taste, Cobalt for it's pretty colors, and kittens for their cute intentions. She is incredibly strong, but horribly unlucky, and speaks with a rasping accent. She is white with black eyes. She likes dwarves for their hilarious intentions.

Build a grid of floor grates above the entire city. Draft a squadron of masons and bomb the crap out of the city with falling constructed walls.

Coming from Legends mode:
"The Muscular Hell", a cave that housed a kobold civilization that would burtally raid the dwarven civilizations of "Frillmines" and "Ghostdoom" (and other smaller/insignificant civilizations that would later fall) for nearly 249 years, in which the feud ended in a bloody battle between the occupants of "Frillmines" and "The Muscular Hell" where the kobolds would face a crushing defeat that ended in its collapse.

...Not a bad story

i just found a dwarven civ called "the high roughness"...

and a god for them, with the title "the oak of keys" is associated with youth..
and they have a goddess of death, suicide and murder...

and Dutal Moralworthy the courteous Dignity of Helping is god of truth...
and Bisek the Umbra of Subtleties is goddess of night and darkness...

I trained up a lasher a couple of forts ago who earned the title "the Living Elbow of Whipping."

My first real attempt at using large-scale peafowl egg production to feed a fortress, the fortress' randomly generated name was Birdquakes.  The fortress was eventually ruined by a titan attack, but somehow it never managed to reach the coop, and only the peafowl survived.
