Title: Name of the main character? Post by: chipiron on October 30, 2012, 01:32:18 pm Hi everyone!
I would like to know the name of the main character of Samorost. I have read the author refers to him as "Gnome" (common noun) but I'd like to confirm if that is true or "Gnome" has a more specific name. Thanks in advance! Title: Re: Name of the main character? Post by: Alex on October 30, 2012, 07:10:22 pm Yep. The hero in the Samorost series is indeed called "Gnome". ( at least we've never ever heard JD or anyone else from Amanita Design refer to him/her as anything else but... "Gnome" ) ...also, just between you and me, i think the Czech artist Linda Čihařová was the inspiration for The Gnome character. ;~> (http://www.lindacihar.com/lindaportfolio/obrazky/obr.vel/performance/P1010056.jpg)< (http://www.lindacihar.com/) Title: Re: Name of the main character?

I think that would suit a cute gnome like him :D Title: Re: Name of the main character? Post by: Salkovskiy on March 14, 2015, 12:06:30 pm Hello, can you say the names of all the characters in the game? particularly interesting name of a man in the woods with a pipe.

Do all the other characters in Samorost actually have a name? ??? Did a tiny research and found nothing. Except pics of all the characters, no names. I do not own the game so I don't know ::) besides, I doubt that it's revealed in-game anyways. Title: Re: Name of the main character?

Yep, you are correct. Title: Re: Name of the main character? Post by: Priyma on March 18, 2015, 03:14:47 am In the Russian edition of Samorost 2 have art-book with the names of some creatures.
But this is just a very strange adaptation of Russian publisher. Strange because Gnome named Gennady and etc. (https://pp.vk.me/c606816/v606816258/1bdb/f591C10v-UQ.jpg) Rough translation - "Longtailed Mousespit" ; "Crazy Badgerfang" ; "Crocobug Lotpaunch" ; "Taxidriver Valera" and etc. Title: Re: Name of the main character? Post by: Alex on March 18, 2015, 08:30:14 pm Those are pretty funny made up names! :D
And what does the name they gave to the "man in the woods with a pipe" mean in English? (http://u.cubeupload.com/ABoretz/Mogect.jpg) Title: Re: Name of the main character? Post by: Priyma on March 19, 2015, 03:08:48 am It's just name - Modest ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modest )
Title: Re: Name of the main character? Post by: njdaemon on July 28, 2016, 06:55:01 pm i dont know his name but it seems like it's based on a czech kid's animation called "zwirek i muchomorek" i used to watch it in poland as a child. check it out on youtube!
