I do agree that Rainbow dragon sounds kinda gay but short of gleaming or shimmering dragon, there is no other word to describe the shifting colors that this dragon supposedly has. Faerie Dragon wouldn't be a bad alternative.

It's still gay And regardless of the name, you just know they are going to get nicked gaydragons anyway.

P.S. : I have nothing against gays, I'm bisexual myself.

one thing is for sure...

the ones that came up with the names either hate us, hate the creatures, or never bothered considering how the name would sound when translated to english

That wasn't meant to include myself... oops.

Here's a thought: Assuming that the Renegades are the Haven Alternatives, what would better names be?

Mine:
Enforcer: Sounds too powerful for a level one.  Brute would be better.
Crossbowman: Fine
Vindicator: Fine
Battle Griffin: Wow, all 10 seconds of thought on that one.  Blood Griffin would be better.
Zealot: Fine
Champion: Nah, too heroic. Crusader would be better.
Fallen Angel: To make the whole thing seem less evil, call it Seraph.

I think Nosferatu is a really good name, for it actualy is a nosferatu. if some of you is familiar with the whitewolfs Vampire the masquerade, then you would know that the nosferatu is a clan of vampires with hideous looks, like baldness, verly long sharp nails, and long teeth.

Nival clearly got inspiration from a lot of different places.

Hence nosferatus is nothing new in Heroes of might and magic, the heroes 3 vampire and vampire lord was clearly nosferatu.

And the Nosferatu is not paler than the other heroes 5 vampires.

thanks

Why make the name longer? Acidic Hydra should be just Acid Hydra, plain and simple right?

Its Sapphire and I hope it stays that way, cause rainbow dragon makes it childish, second it dosent have the rainbows colors, third it will make those gay sayers silenced for good. Rainbows aint gay, its not even a sex based phenomenon

And Quasits are called Vermin now.

My list:

Haven.

Brute: Okey, i can live with it. But couldnt they come up with somehting better? Make them pikemans or Sustainer (okey, sustainer is a badddd name).

Crossbowman: not very creative... i dont like it.

Vindicator: Good name but Crusader or Templar would be better, or fit in better.

Battle Griffin: Its okey but not perfect.

Zealot: Its sad that they take old cretaure names, but again, i can livé with it.

Champion: Same as Zealot.

Seraph: No, no, no. Serpahs have six wings. They should call it Blood Angel or Venegance Angel. Just dont Seraph!


Sylvan.

Dryad: Very fitting and good.

Wind Dancer: Nah, Blade Singer was better. But i dont like any "dancer, singer, popstar" name.

Sharpshooter: Grand Hunter would be better but im okey with it.

High Druid: Its okey. I have nothing to say against this one.

White Unicorn: PLEASE! Change the name. Its color almost look like silver... and the Silver Unicorn looks white.
Lunar Unicorn or Mystic Unicorn sounds better. ANYTHING except this one. Its boring too.

Anger Treant: Do i even need to say something about this one?

Rainbow Dragon: Same as above.

Academy:

Gremlin Sabotour: Very good.

Marble Gargolye: I dont like it, but i can live with it.

Magnet Golem: BAH! MAGNET golem!???? Is this a game for 3-year old babies? Why not just Gold Golem?

Battle Mage: Its okey, but not very fitting. Battle Mages should be in melee, that would be more fitting with their name.

Djinn Wizer: Very good. I like its cartoonish look too ;P

Rakshasa ???: It looks awful. But i think all Rakshasa names are the smae so i have nothing to say here.

Cloud Titan: Storm Lord was better, Cloud ´Titan??? Are there "real" Titans now?


Necropolis.

Skeleton Warrior: I cna live with it. Not very creative through.

Disease Zombie: Same.

Poltergeist: Its okey, but i still dont like it. Can survive.

Nosferatu: i think its very fitting with its look.

Lich Master: Its okey. Same as the new sombie and skeleton.

Banshee: No wonder the new Undead look emo and gay, they have an BANSHEE in their ranks. Banshees are like female ghosts...

Horror Dragon: Its okey. But i think something like Spirit Dragon would be better, i dont know.


Inferno:

Vermin: I think Quasit sounded better, but Vermin is also good.

Horned Grunt: No. It reminds me of wc3 Orc Grunts...

Firehound: Its awful!!! Not creative at all.

Succubus Seducer: Boring and uncreative name.

Hell Stallion: Its good. But Hellmare was more creative.

Pit Spawn: Couldt they come up with something better?

Archdemon: lol.

Dungeon:

Stalker: Its okey. Very fitting with its abilties.

Blood Witch: No, i dont like it .There were tones of other combinations they could come up with.

Minotaur Captain: I thougt they were slaves, have i missed something?

Black Rider: I like it. Sounds very cool and almosr evviilll.

Acidic Hydra: Its okey, but Toxic Hydra or Venoumous Hydra or anythung lese is better.

Shadow Mistress: No, all the names are the same and all are bad.

Red Dragon: I dont like it. Why not make it a bit darker and call it Scarlet Dragoin? Would fit more to the Shadow Dragons too.

I dont care about expansion races.

Huh? Something I have missed? Rot Zombie, Vampire Prince, Blood Sister??

Well zounds good enough. Though Nosterafu were just as good. Rot Zombie...well all the zombies seems rotten but i cant get why Disease zombie are better, I mean a Plague are a Disease that are very containioous and spreads like flames in dry grass. Blood Sister..yeah why not? Those sex bombs dont cast any spells like real withes do so Im fine with it.

The key to accept names of creatures, is to use YOUR creativity, logic, fantasy. To see how that or that creature name fits It has served me well since I rarely get dissapointed by the creature names in H5. But I admit that a few names sure sounds funny
