To ensure that Champions Online is a fun, fair, and safe environment, there are a few basic guidelines that all users are required to abide by in-game when choosing names.

Character Name, Handle, and Super Group Names May Not:
  • Be designed to impersonate a real life individual or entity
  • Be the name of any Atari or Cryptic Studios product, character, or employee (This includes Cryptic Game Masters)
  • Incorporate vulgar, obscene, hateful, defamatory language or imagery
  • Be derogatory towards racial, ethnical, cultural background, or sexual orientation
  • Incorporate the name or image of a religious figure or deity
  • Incorporate any form of religious title (i.e. "The Lord", "Rabbi")
  • Relate to illegal drugs or activities
  • Be nonsensical or gibberish (“asdlkfj” or “Jkljkl”)
  • Advertise any form of website, product, or service
  • Comprised of partial or complete sentences (e.g., “Welovechicken”)
  • Be the registered property of any other company



    • Champions Online offers an incredibly customizable character/costume creator. However, with great power comes great responsibility. We understand that you may want to emulate, mimic or create a copy of your favorite super hero’s costume; we ask you be aware of the following guidelines when creating your champion.

    While Creating your Champion's Costume:
  • You may not create costumes or costume/name combinations that are recognizable as the registered property of any company. (This includes things such as: comics, anime, movies, or video games.)
  • When creating costume combinations, you may not create the illusion or appearance that you are indecent, obscene, or nude. (We know superheroes can be scantily clad, but they are always appropriately covered.)


    • If characters are found in violation of this policy it may lead to disciplinary actions against the offending account. This could include suspension from the game or possibly account termination. Any character name or name/costume combinations which are against Cryptic’s Policy will be changed by Cryptic Support Staff.

    For the full legal documentation of this policy, please see the Rules of Conduct and our Terms of Use
