class MoreMeta(type):
    def __init__(self, name, bases, attrs):
        more = attrs.get('moreattrs')
        if more:
            for attr, val in more.iteritems():
                setattr(self, attr, val)

class MoreObject(object):
    __metaclass__ = MoreMeta

class A(MoreObject):
    moreattrs = {}
    for i in '12':
        moreattrs['title_' + i] = int(i)

>>> A.title_1
1
>>> A.title_2
2
>>>
