View Full Version : Name a Nun, need Catholic help
It'll properly be the last game played set in my Central City campaign, got some of the old timers that want to do a last hurrah so we'll see. Anyhow one of the locations will be a Catholic church "Our Lady of Perpitual Sorrows" (thanks Limper :)), it seems the good sisters have an undead (and demon) problem and the PCs are going to help. I was going to use the names from Nunsense and Sister Act (Sister Mary Amnesia,Sister Mary Leo :), Father Wolfgang) but the Players know them so I got to creat good ones.
I need 9 NPCs 2 fathers and 7 Nuns (Mother Superior + 5 and a novice), 3 are heros the rest Ordinaries.
One of the Priest is a hero type, that was when he was younger a demon slayer (Dedicated, Clergy)
MS is the same but with the healer talent tree
The Novice is a Treifling Mage (trying to adone) [Smart 3, Mage 2, Dedicated 1]
If any of you backsliding catholic shool girls want to give any insight or anything to Nun socity feel free.
Man thanks for all the help guys ! :rolleyes:
Anyway I got an e-mail from a player stateing that she wants to play a Mage so I gave her the triefling to play (good for insider knowledge too) but told her to beef her up to 10th level, We're going to meet later for abilities etc but here's what she send me as a backstory, thought y'all would be amused.
Tasha aka Sister Mary Prudence Smart-3, Fast 1, Dedicated 1, Mage 5 [Tiefling], Freelance mage and finder of artifacts.
After years of recovering relics for an unknown buyer Tasha has switched sides to to a large part to the good Father Wolfgang and "Mom Super". She has noticed things aren't right with the neighberhood and the church grounds itself, so urged Father "Wolf" to contact Rome for help (this is where the PCs come in.)
(Abilities, feats and talents to be done later tonight at my place )
Posessions - 2 Nun regalia (dress, habit, funky shoes), Rosery (can double as garrot), Bible, Glock 19 w/ 2 spare mags, collection of black thongs, Vib, (combat fatiuges with boots, casual clothes) hidden off site

I propose Sister Mary-Theresa. After Soeur Marie-Thérèse (http://www.taistoidonc.fr/dotclear/public/artistes/maester.jpg), which I'm sure you'd like if you met her (http://www.fluideglacial.com/images/ouebe/auteurs/maestercouv.jpg).
She's pretty much my favorite nun. Not sexy, sure; but fun.

I just came across a school in Il today called Our Lady of Ransom.
Are you looking for real sounding nun names like Sr Mary Mechanica who taught shop, or cheesy nun names? I ran Macho Women with Guns game where the PC were all Renegade nuns. They had names like Sister Bonnie Bezongas.
Let me know the style you want and I can come up with the names.

Which ones have you picked?
I wonder what the poor pious ladies would think if they knew their names were being used in an American RPG...:p

Let's see . . .
Some names of actual nuns I had in school:
Sister Cathrine Joseph
Sister Bridgetta
Sister Mary Michael
Sister Anita
Sister Anette
Sister Trin
Nuns, as a matter of respect, usually change their names (like the Pope) but priests and brothers usually do not. Therefore, if you have priest names you can pick some Irish name and be set.
