So... On the latest chapter it says that Wave Controllers are given the names of winds and waves.

That led me to question... What will Viole's title be?


Any ideas/predictions?

[ThatBlueGuy]

The Dark Wind

[MuleLove]

Wind of change xD

[101010]

Hmm, pretty sure I've seen a thread like this, even commented in it, but for some reason couldn't find it....

Anyway, I suggest Nightgale.

[PhoenixAUS]

Hurricane Viole/Baam

[cheez]

Rogue or Internal Wave would fit him.

[Rern]

Malevolent Burrasca

[Urek Mazino]

Freezing Wave, Mimic Wave, Paralysing Wave <--- My guesses.

I think it's too soon to say. Baam has been in the tower for 6 years, but we've vitnessed so little of it. Not everyone gets a sobriquet, Baam will sure get it, but from all I've seen and read, it is mandatory you become a Ranker before you get it.

He has to be of high ranker status too. Though him being an Irregular and all defeats that reasoning!

Sticking with his 25th Night, maybe something like Dark Storm or Nightwind or Night Breaker or..

Spoiler

Nocturnal Emission

So if a Mule Family member were a High Ranker Wave Controller would his sobriquet be

Spoiler

"Ass Wind"?

[Sale Lisulov]

Something along the lines of Kingslayer ?

[Will of NGE]

Baam is a wave controller, there are no winds or waves called Kinglayers or 25th Night. 25th Baam/Night/Chestut is his name, it won't and can't be a sobriquet.
Sobriquets are determined by something specific to a person, or something that defines that person. It takes a lot of show, or one really big show, for someone to recieve a sobriquet that would adequetly fit.
Us quessing what Sobriquet Baam would/will get is same as a civilian knowing the outcome of the war the first day that war started. It's impossibe.
So, all the quessing you people do, will probably be negated in the next chapter Baam does something new, and then it will change again, and again, and again.
Now, what we know of Baam is "What Baam seems, Baam does.", if it's unique to him there is a chance of Baam recieving a sobriquet describing it. If he's not unique in this, he won't recieve a sobriquet about it.

To me, it's obvious that his sobriquet would be something to show he is able to instantly copy any technique at sight. I am unable to really find one but that seems to be the unique thing about Baam so far.

[cheez]

Undertow or Rip Current for Baam
Fitting with his calm personality, but explosive fighting style.

Lionfish for Yihwa
They're beautiful, but they'll sting both enemies and allies if they get too close.

Hagfish for Parakewl
Self explanatory

I actually think it was in something (or things) that meandered around the topic, rather than being an actual thread. But, can't find it, either, as I haven't bothered to search both "sobriquet" and "nickname".

I think I remember Danurai going for Copycat... But, that doesn't quite meet up with the whole Wave Controller vibe. <shrugs>

Just thought of something that might work: Echo... something that riffs on that.

Hagfish for Parakewl
Self explanatory

Why buck a trend? Goby works... That, or Mudskipper, I'm not picky.

its simple just combine the two "The Violent Night", fits with fug irreguallars and his name and also fits in with a knight for friendship yada yada blah blah and usually with violent nights change happens in their wake whether it be good or bad well that depends on who fills the gap.. if not that transcendental chestnut, just cause i think the people of the tower are arseholes and for some reason would want to downplay him in some way by giving him a cute sounding name

Nope, sorry, he couldn't be downplayed, as the Ranker Birou and the guys that give Sobriquets know better. I mean come on, they gave Phantaminum ranking number 1! He who stormed Zahard's castle and murdered a shitton of his Rankers.
Or Enryu, who killed a Guardian, and basicly cut off anyone (but irregulars) access to Shinsoo on that floor, tests are also no longer conducted on Floor 43 because of that.
They were both ranked higher than the king of Tower himself, Zahard, he who created the system we know of.
Ranker Birou and the guys that give sobriquets don't discriminate or downplay. Others may try to kill someone's reputation, but sobriquet giving guys are smart enough to see through it or something.

P.S. Violent Night sounds damn awesome.

Uncommon Wind/Wave or Abnormal Wind/Wave. I mean, Viole is like one lightning-rod, he keep atracting attention even he don't want. Fighting with Ranker and winning, checked. Fighting with Urek and surviving, checked!
Of course, I got other ideas too...
Whisper of Wind, Dark Wind, Night Wind, Mirrored Wind.
Deep Wave, Dark Wave, Echo Wave, Waveform Change.
