If you don't know what a "chumhandle" is, then maybe you should go READ ALL OF HOMESTUCK RIGHT THIS GODDAMNED MINUTE. Or if time is of the essence, maybe just read this page of the obligatory attendant wiki. Now your challenge is clear: Come up with a chumhandle for each of your RP characters. The formula as Andrew Hussie sets it is easy enough: two words in what I guess is called "camelcase" form? I've never heard that term before but it means the words have to be capitalized: likeThis. Bonus points for wordplay and/or obscure terms. Examples of chumhandles from Homestuck include "tentacleTherapist", "gallowsCalibrator" and "terminallyCapricious". Mr. Hussie imposed on himself an extra rule that the sixteen chumhandles he devised needed to represent all sixteen two-letter combinations of the letters A, C, G and T (for whatever reason). We can't do that, but rules are awesome I always say, so in place of that rule, I suggest that the two words in each chumhandle should begin with the initials of that character's name. All right. You get it?

Oh well.

What about the characters that only have one name, be it some kind of pseudonym or just a lack of a last name? I mean, Achenes, Miko, Tsubota, Abatis, Nopcsa, Mandelbrot, etc. (Well, actually, Mandelbrot's should be a palindrome or something like that. But I digress.)
