>>14466688Well, they're ALL references. If some are popculture references, does that make the others just culture references?
References are... the whole point. You can't be a hipster with a nickname for your pokemon, "oh everyone's heard of Lord of the Rings or whathaveyou, I can't use that...."
You just keep brainstorming until you find one that you get attached to and run with it. It's not like I plan on using them or anything, but someone might REALLY love Interposing Hands and the +4 Cover bonus to AC they give.
It's all just shit flung at a wall in the end, it's gotta stick for someone.
