Need Superhero Name

[SCUBA Hero]

Hello Herodom!

 

I'm working on a four-color superhero.This is a 5e game, and I'm going with a teleporting energy projector. He's going to be Tacyon's (from 5e Champions) superhero counterpart - Rob Bleskind, but a hero instead of a villain, and a different power set (teleporting energy projector). So I want him to be a professor at Millenium City University, teaching / studying some field that would get him involved with the kelvarite meteor from space. Astrogeology, maybe? Anyhow, something space related.

 

I'm having trouble coming up with a cool space-related name for the character. Ideally, it would have some tie-in with the name 'Tachyon' as well.

 

Any suggestions?

Nutrino, The Human Boson, Quark, Quantum, Dr. Who ... why don't we just forget I said that last one?

Since the scientific term for teleporting is "quantum tunneling," I'd support Quantum as a name.

 

If you haven't already, I'd suggest posting this in the Champions forum for more responses.

I haven't posted in the Champions forum, as I judge that most of the space-fu savvy posters will see it here.

 

So far, Blue Shift looks good to me.

Thought I'd do some reading round the subject and came across the following

 

" no tachyon detection has so far been confirmed. The same is true of another hypothetical faster-than-light particle called a dybbuk (Hebrew for a "roving spirit"), "

So how about Dybbuk? Roving Spirit seems to fit the power set, it has the tachyon connection, and could Bleskind be some kind of anglisiced jewish surname?

I want to stay away from Quantum, simply because of that name on the 5e Champions team.

 

Dybbuk is interesting...

 

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Trust me on this: if the PC is a university professor and has a life outside of that, he'll have no time for superheroics. My dad's a professor and he's always working.
