The convention on appearances of the character adopted in the forum, since he is really a puppet master controlling a corpse, is that he only appears if he speaks, or if his spirit-form is shown.
Other names for him brainstormed by the Order of the Stick in that same strip include: Count Durkula, Undurkon, Jerkon, Leechy Veinquaff, Nega-Dwarf, Durkzzaro, Deep Fang Friar, The Creature Preacher, Nokrud, The Thorsaken, Pastor Expiration, Whiskers in the Dark, Nose-Fur-atu, Hel's Shell, The Corpse Formerly Known as Durkon, and Greg. Both names are references to comic #1030, " Naming Names". The Class and Level Geekery thread refers to him as Greg. On the discussion boards, the Number of Character Appearances thread refers to him as "Durkon"* (quotation marks and asterisk included). But since he abdicated the position, the title is confusing as he technically is not currently the High Priest of Hel, and another vampire is. When his position as High Priest of Hel was known, he was mostly known by that title alone. However, he has never given a name for himself, and the body he occupies is Durkon and the appearance of his spirit-self is identical to Durkon. The vampire spirit who controls Durkon's undead body is clearly distinct from Durkon himself, as the two engage in conversation within his mind.
There is some difficulty with what name to use to refer to this character, a fact dealt with in the story as well.
