Why not use HUMAN names? --Redrum 18:03, 2 November 2016 (MDT)

It's cool... but just looking at the stat blocks you couldn't tell it's a flesh golem like monstrociy. Don't be afraid to be adventurous with your traits. --Balthazar (talk) 14:16, 17 January 2017 (MST)

Are they an ORGANIC version of the Warforged race? 209.97.84.186 17:04, 15 January 2020 (MST)

Do you know that in the ORIGINAL story Frankenstein is the name of the Mad scientist and not the creature? I don't think the creature HAD a name. 23.251.23.105 13:02, 11 October 2024 (MDT)

About the Human Names[edit]

Human names can be used, but they generally aren't because the majority of Frankensteins are not very smart, so they are seen more as pets than humans. It is possible for them to be treated very badly because of it, but it's very rare because they are so terrifying no one really wants to get on their bad side. Their general stupidity is reflected in their almost dog-like names, but occasionally human names will be used. Another reason why human names are usually used is because, especially with the facial parts, the loved ones of the humans they were created out of would prefer not to call them by their old human names or even new human names because they act so different from when they were alive originally that they can't recognize Frankensteins as human and must name them differently to reflect that. The assumption is that the master's are generally evil, so this is written more from that perspective.

Is it possible to allow FREE Frankensteins to have Family names (like Addams or Munster)? --Redrum 17:12, 1 March 2017 (MST)
