This has a nice added bonus of giving characters that don't know each other an IC reason to meet up at the dungeon entrance -- they were all sent there independently by the same agency and told to look for each other. Hilarity ensues.
Love the idea. That's awesome and I can definitely see where the hilarity would come in. I can already see some fun events in the future (if everything comes together, of course).
As far as names go... I would normally go with something Latin, but Latin holds no meaning in Eorzea. Mayhaps something to do with insanity? It'd be a clever use of the definition of "insanity" (doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result), though that would only be clever and amusing OOCly. Hm... I will have to think on this.
