Names and Avatars.

Post by Ironman86 »

I'm sure we all have a story/reason behind our name/avatars. Lets hear them.

Since I started this particular thread I'll share first. I chose Ironman because I maintain freight railroad tracks.

Damn. I assumed you were one of those mad men who consider triathlon to be too easy.
My nickname comes from a personal story that I won't share here. My avatar comes from my previous internet nickname (during the 90s and early 00s), Sparkster, the main character of the Rocket Knight Adventure game series on Sega Genesis. It was one of my favorite childhood games, one that never had the level of exposure it deserved, drowned in the plethora of animal-mascot-side-scrolling-platformer.

Mine is an amalgam of two words: urbane, from where and how I live, and Bain, in reference to J. R. R. Tolkien.

The story behind my name comes from Andors Trail, I never trusted the Shadow and By calling myself Shadow Slayer I mean to slay the shadow in the way of destroying the shadow religion and ending its rule, I never liked the shadow and suspected it to be evil and I was right!
I found out that it comes from Kazaul and isn't really a thing!
They called it the Shadow, and started creating a small cult around it, Only the smallest core of the cult actually knows that this power comes from the Kazaul-era dark arts...

Shadow be with you, even if you may be a lost sheep...

When I started Andors Trail and got as first quest to run behind my brother, this reminded me to some fairy tale.
The oldest son was sent to do some great thing - and never came back.
The next son was sent to do some great thing - and never came back.
The youngest son was trusted nothing and sent last. This youngest son always has a name like "Dummling" (German for Simpleton) and I think I remember to have it translated as "Nut".

(Nice idea this tread!)

You shall see you are wrong! :twisted:
Besides I think you are a lost sheep, I follow Elythara, and I will end Kazaul!

I chose my avatar because in real life I'm an insanely powerful, totally evil, wizard, that lives in a big tower on a volcano. AT is a hobby to fill in time when I get tired of trying to dominate the world.
