Bobo is short for Bowie, and T "The Mountain" is short for Tanto. These are both knives, like Swiss (swiss army knife). Bowie is for "bowie knife," and Tanto because, according to Wikipedia "A tantō (短刀, 'short blade')[1] is a traditionally made Japanese knife[2] (nihontō)[3][4] that was worn by the samurai class of feudal Japan." And Satyr culture has Japanese influences.


I also have another theory that The Mountain lives next to a mountain that will actually be revealed as a volcano. The volcano needed for space players.


Though my brother told me volcanos can't be called mountains because they arent mountains, so I was like "whatever its extinct but it reactivates because of magic" but this theory is honestly more fanfiction I think rip.


So mostly I just want to know, tell me what yall think of my name theory!

Oohh I really like these theories!

Also, volcanoes and mountains aren't mutually exclusive in the common lexicon, even if they are distinct geologically.

that thing about the mountain living near a volcano makes a lot of sense. CT and AA are almost certainly space and time players respectively, given their fitting into the green/red color associations that have so far been ever-present. unless the team is pulling a switcheroo id say its all but confirmed CT has this session's forge.


I wonder why CT refers to themself as 'the mountain' if this nickname also references the one they live near. maybe strongly identifying with nature and surroundings will be an important part of their characterization?

(now im wondering what the deltas' planets/classpects/prototypings will be. i wonder what the prospit/derse split will look like?)

"Mount Fuji is an active stratovolcano located on the Japanese island of Honshu [...] It is the highest mountain in Japan."


Idk what's up with your brother lol

I could definitely see the Satyr’s being named after swords or other bladed weapons, especially after CC’s name was revealed.


In my brain the Bobo nickname came from the first two letters of his first and last name.


I also wonder if the nickname T even comes from CT’s real name or just his username / title of “The Mountain“

I feel Tanto fits as well for CT cause Swiss calls him T. Neat guess about CT being the player with the forge. If that's true, he'd necessarily be a space player as well.
