  106. Section 4: Determining Your Name Conditions
  107.  
  108. Sometimes, a character will have a plot based condition that affects their name.
  109. You, too, might have a condition that affects your name. Conditions can stack, so please make note of how many your name has.
  110.  
  111. 1. THE MAN CONDITION
  112. Roll a d4. Use this table to determine whether you have this condition:
  113. 1-3: You do not have this condition.
  114. 4: You have this condition. Your last name will include the suffix -man.
  115. If your name already has man at the end of it, I guess you’re just going to have manman at the end of your name.
  116.  
  117. 2. THE CONDITION CONDITION: Roll a d8. Use this table to determine what this condition will do to you:
  118. 1-5: You do not have this condition.
  119. 6: You’re big. Your name must have “Big” at the beginning of it.
  120. 7: You are older than you once were. Your name must have “Old” atthe beginning of it.
  121. 8: You are how you currently are. Please add your answer from Section 2, Number 11 to the beginning of your name.
  122.  
  123. 3. THE CLONE CONDITION: Roll a d12. Use this table to determine if you havethis condition:
  124. 1-11:You do not have this condition.
  125. 12: You are a clone of someone else, or you have been brainwashed into becoming a mental doppelganger of someone else. Find someone who has completed this worksheet and replace 50% of your Kojima name with 50% of their Kojima name.
  126.  
  127. 4. THE KOJIMA CONDITION: Roll a d100 (or two d10s, using one as the 1s place and the other as the 10s place.) Use this table to determine if you have this condition:
  128.  
  129. 1-68, 70-100:You do not have this condition.
  130. 69: Oh no. You are Hideo Kojima. Hideo Kojima created you and is also
  131. you. You are the man who created himself and there is nothing you
  132. can do about it. You’re in Kojima’s world—your world—and that’s
  133. just the breaks, pal. Stop this worksheet now. You’re Hideo Kojima.
  134. Go do the things that Hideo Kojima does.
  135.  
  136. Section 5: Determining Your Name Category
  137.  
  138. Kojima names fall into a finite number of categories. This section will
  139. determine the category in which you name belongs. NOTE: If you have a
  140. name + 6 alternate names, you will do this section once to find your true
  141. name, and then you will have an alternate name in every other category.
  142.  
  143. 5. Roll a d20. Use this table to determine your name category. Once you
  144. have figured out your name category, you can skip ahead to the section
  145. that outlines the rules of your name:
  146. 1: You have a NORMAL NAME (See Section 6)
  147. 2-6: You have an OCCUPATIONAL NAME (See Section 7)
  148. 7-10: You have a HORNY NAME (See Section 8)
  149. 11-13: You have a THE NAME (See Section 9)
  150. 14-17: You have a COOL NAME (See Section 10)
  151. 18-19: You have a VIOLENT NAME (See Section 11)
  152. 20: You have a NAME THAT LACKS SUBTEXT (See Section 12)
  153.  
  154. Section 6: NORMAL NAME
  155.  
  156. Kojima’s early work includes lots of characters that have names that are
  157. widely considered to be “normal.” Was this just because, in the early years,
  158. he didn’t have the power to say, “I’m Hideo Kojima, I can name someone
  159. DieHardman if I want to” without people questioning him? Probably.
  160.  
  161. 1. Please rewrite your answer from Section 2, Number 1 here. This is your full
  162. Kojima name:
  163. _______________________________________________________________________

  167.  
  168. Section 7: OCCUPATIONAL NAME
  169. Kojima’s characters tend to be driven by the work that they do. That often
  170. carries over to their names. You, too, can be nothing more than your job.

  203.  
  204. Section 9: THE NAME
  205.  
  206. Kojima loves to make people have names that start with
  207. the word “The” and they usually symbolize fears or
  208. unstoppable forces. You are now that unstoppable force.
  209.

  265. to the best of your ability. Feel free to draw from personal experience,
