I got mine because I love furry animals :D

Cakie Papercake
11-02-2011, 09:36 PM
Cakie is part of it because one of my good friends called me Cakesters(long story), and my bf calls me Cakie. Best friend calls me Cake for short.

Papercake, which was supposed to be Papercakes(but you know, the s disappeared.) because of my tablet game Papercakes, and how I Love playing it. :3 doodle is so cute.

And yes, I love cake.

Mine is a nickname. My best friend and I have always been into celestial stuff, and after getting my first tattoo in high school (crescent moon and stars), people started calling me Luna. She picked up the name Star. So we got known as Luna and Star. :3

Zimpie
11-03-2011, 12:38 AM
I wanted to join this rpg game and couldn't think of a name
my first thought was taken so my mind traveled to invader zim >_>
and it ended up being Zimpie, the name just stuck :D

M30WZ1K4
11-03-2011, 02:32 AM
I nicknamed my girlfriend's cat Meowzika because it wouldn't shut up. About this time, I got my XBox 360, so I just named my character M30WZ1K4 and the name stuck.

Then, on some other websites I use rocky713. This is from my ROBLOX years, when my friend was named rocky714. Since I was younger than him, I just named myself rocky713, and it stuck for a while. So, I either use these two as my usernames.

Mine is a shortened version of a nickname I have for my cat, Hiro.

I like to call him Lemurllamaredpandamonkeysheepmerecat. <3

Anne Bonny
11-03-2011, 05:59 AM
I chose mine after the true pirate, Anne Bonny. (http://www.badassoftheweek.com/bonny.html)

Actually, my sister was the one who picked it for me, really. We were at Disneyland, and the Pirates of the Caribbean ride has pictures of historical pirates painted on the walls. There was a picture of Anne Bonny and her partner in crime, Mary Read, and my sis pointed at it and said, "That's me and you." And I loved it. And it stuck.

A love of the Final Fantasy video game series and Blind Guardian music.

Blind Guardian have an album called "A Twist in the Myth"

Also shifted to more appropriate section XD

Insomnant
11-03-2011, 09:21 AM
Mine comes from me having insomnia! And the latter half is because, after missing sleep for a couple nights in a row I tend to wander through life like a zombie. So I am the insomniac revenant, or Insomnant. (rawr)

Got it from Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time, most possibly my favourite console game ever. :>

E1Alpha
11-03-2011, 11:38 AM
As far as I remembered, I was thinking desperately about a name for a character to use on Runescape (LONG TIME AGO). I had just finished playing one of my sonic games, in which there were a couple of robots featured: E-101 Beta, E-102 Gamma, etc... The series went on to E-123 Omega in another game.
Seeing as Alpha wasn't added, I decided to take a shortened version of it: E-1 Alpha
Over the time, it just became E1Alpha, and that just sticked around for a long time.

Wow... I finally remembered how I got the name O.O

Nemesis
11-03-2011, 11:50 AM
I began a secretive guild on another site known as the Dark Iron Guild. It sprang up from creating our community blog known as A Dark Heart & An Iron Hand, a place where all the darkest & most foul fictional short stories, literary side projects, & role playing ideas would develope that delved deep into the dark side of our being. It also was a place of freedom to write as we wanted, of course always with tactfulness & class, a place I helped create for us to be able to share intimate ideas with others who shared similar interests.

The council members of the guild is referred to as Blades, all equals, but each with a specialization. I am known as the Blade of Passion. Passion is known to be an emotion of extremes & while generating a profile for RPA, I decided to use Nemesis as my name sake because of what she represents. On the former site I was TFS or The Final Survivor styled after my role playing character I created for the apocalypic RP that was on going. Obviously, that name moniker wouldn't suit me too well here. ;) So yeah, I am named after a goddess... pretty interesting seeing as I had a choice in the matter.

A name change is coming soon, & all I will be doing is adding to what is already there. So those who know me as Nemesis shall be able to always... But there is always me with my endless editing & rambling... Well met! =D

Korvis
11-03-2011, 12:04 PM
My name... I picked it up as a high school freshman. Was taking latin 1. I was having a lot of fun with it... and set out to find my alias. Eventually settled on corvus. Which is really not spelled or sounds anything like how I say and spell it today. It means blackbird or raven. Some times I use karasu. Which is raven in japanese... and rarely when my name is taken (makes me rage more than anything cause not only did I go to huge lengths to make sure it was unique, I spell it differently just to top it off and make sure nobody has it.) But rarely when my name is taken, ill use korvisus... and even more rarely, kaoru(or some combination of that and 33, 3388, 38.... something like that lol... I hate it... absolutely hate it... when people have my name.

»edit«
Also... here is a pic of a tatoo of raven in japanese kanji...

Damnation
11-03-2011, 12:37 PM
Abomination has a vast repetoire of usernames ready to try when she joins sites. On a previous one, she went with Exalted Salvation. And since I'm such a sentimental rascal, I often try to match with her in some way. In that case, I went with basically the exact opposite (opposites attract, you know ;D) - Condemned Damnation.

I wasn't feeling so original this time, so I just went with Damnation. They both end in 'nation' and have slight link as being biblical in origin. I like that "Damnation" is listed in the "See Also" section of the wiki entry for "Abomination", too.

That is the short version anyway. The longer version I'm sure is too tedious.

I don't even know, really.

But you cannae deny Comrade is a damn awesome username. :v

Miss Ember
11-08-2011, 02:40 AM
How I got my username was when I was trying to find an alias to use over online about a year or two ago. So:
Miss = Wanted some type of formality in my alias.
Ember = I have red hair and ember is a synonym in some way.

Now, when I look "Miss Ember" on Google, I see there is a popular blog by a person named "Miss Ember" and a Youtube video with a stripper dancing. http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/depressed2-onion-head-emoticon.gif (http://emoticoner.com)

Glasgow
11-08-2011, 02:49 AM
I go under a lot of usernames, most involving mythology or philosophy, but Glasgow is a different story. A while back when I was really just a young boy around the age of seven or so, my friends and I had a super awesome secret club where we had code names and mine was Glasgow.

Curious Kitsune
11-08-2011, 02:54 AM
I've had so mannyyy lol.... my original one Seras Kitsune...well seras because i watched hellsing and the girl there Ceres was my fave so i decided to alter the name XD kitsune because my fave demon in japanese mythology.

A-chama
11-10-2011, 12:26 AM
Mine's pretty easy XD And I use it almost everywhere. ( since I'm pretty lucky and it's unused most of the time XD)

A is the first letter of my name. And "Chama" is a mixture of Chan + Sama.

The reason I originally took that nickname was because a forum I wanted to sign up on already had "A-san" taken so I chose "chama" as an alternative. I ended up liking it so much I decided to use it everywhere after.

The Gypsy Queen
11-10-2011, 01:22 AM
My username is what I am.

I am part Romani, and my line passes maternally. As my aunt gave up her title by stealing from family, and my mother gave it up by choice, the matriarch title falls to me. I was taught a bunch when I was really little by my great aunts before they died. So... I call myself The Gypsy Queen as kind of a play on that and a play on the character I portrayed in a renaissance re-enactment club. So it's both personal and fun. :D

Kris
11-10-2011, 12:08 PM
I always had a thing for games which had female heroes in them. RPG games were close to fill that spot, but most of the time the main leader of the group was still a male.

Back in the days were I used to be addicted to my GBC Pokémon games I was somewhat upset that I needed to play a guy when it was obvious to everyone that girls played these games too.

And then...

Pokémon Crystal came out with the option of choosing your gender. I'll admit I didn't know about other games at that time with main female leader in them, so I was so surprised at this founding and females recognition that this game ultimately became one of my fav. games up until this very day.

The name "Kris" was one of the options for the new female character's default names. So in order to show everyone that females were active in game too I used that name a lot, and it ended up sticking as my nick since then. I have other nicks that I use, but this is still my fav. one.

Melphina Micaela
11-21-2011, 12:03 AM
I used to go by the name Melphina Micaela a lot. It was my first Username, really. Melphina is from an old anime I doubt anybody would know and Micaela is the Spanish version of my real name.

However, coming here I decided I wanted to go by another name for some reason. I'm not exactly sure why. Maybe I just thought it was time for some change. And I really like the name Delilah, so I figured I'd choose that. Thinking about it now though I really miss going by the name Melphina. It's a name I'll always hold near and dear to my heart. But if I should have the chance to change my name, I think it'll next be Alexithymia or Adelaide, both after songs from my favorite band Anberlin.

Bravado
11-21-2011, 02:39 AM
This song ("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUaNIl1n0Os) is the reason behind my username. I don't call much "beautiful", but this piece truly is.

Cheveyo
11-21-2011, 02:56 AM
Cheveyo is a Hopi word meaning 'Spirit Warrior'. Although I am not native through heritage I have similar belief systems, and the word itself is very pretty to me along with it's context. C:

justpassingthru
11-25-2011, 02:46 PM
Mine came from a Louis LAmour story, the main character when asked who he is states he is "just passing through." To tease him they call him Just. I am pretty easy going and I have moved a lot, so the name seems to fit me.

Yeah, at first my username was my actual...well name.
But then I changed it to Sarcasm because that's the sense of humor I've been hearing lately.

Samara
12-04-2011, 09:16 AM
My username came from my Warhammer 40k character: Samara Fray who is ironically a sister of battle who deserted her battlion and joined the Black Legion under the warmaster Abaddon the Despoiler.

Meeka
12-28-2011, 09:21 PM
I have two Usernames.

Gottalovemeyeah( AMV )

and

Meeka


I got Gottalovemeyeah when I was 11 o.o I was signing up for that Website called WEBKINZ, Yeah it was HOT SHIT in 5th grade and like EVERYONE had one, and I couldn't think of a name.... I wrote a few names in but they were all taken, Then I typed in, 'Gottaloveme' That was taken... So I threw in a 'yeah' at the end....

Thats when the Gottalovemeyeah Franchise began! I then Opened a deviant ART with the name and quickly became popular with 10,000 Page views in under 4mnths with Inuyasha and other anime drawings and Graphic art works. It wasn't until I was banned because Someone hacked my email saying she was my mother and said she wants my account closed and blah blah blah. So apparently DeviantArt thinks I'm 15 right now and I have to wait 4 years till they think I'm 18 so I can make an account.

So I moved onto YOUTUBE! where the Gottalovemeyeah Franchize went on~

I found out I already had made an account... but i forgot my password... THUS CREATING GottalovemeyeahAMV!~


Meeka came from my friends calling me MEERKAT, due to the fact I am short for my age and I have to peer over things and It resembles a MEERKAT <3 But they perferred to call me Meeka cause it sounds Cuter.

Jacogos
01-03-2012, 01:58 AM
Oh the history... It makes me nostalgic.

To be perfectly honest, my name has got to be one of the nerdiest you can find. I use 'Jacogos' for 90% of accounts that require usernames, for the simple fact that, well... It was my very first Roleplaying character's name xD

While the character himself is lost in time's grasp and effectively I already have written his death, his memory lives on in my username xD

What, you think there's more to it? Fine, you're right. Here's the nerdy part... I took my real life name, and turned it into a name that a Blue Dragon (http://www.wowwiki.com/Blue_dragonflight) would use from Warcraft. The result? The ONLY Jacogos you will ever meet in the entire universe. Seriously. Google it. I'm the only one xD.

On second thought... Don't Google it. I don't want you people knowing what I do in my spare time o.o

Anastasia
01-03-2012, 05:00 AM
Mine is pretty straight forward, it is a transliteration of the Russian nominative word "сожаление" which means "regret." It's probably one of my favorite words, and really it summarizes my life, which had been full of regret. But when I graduated college I decided that I would live without regret, I actually have the words "Не Сожаления"or "no regrets" as a tattoo. And so far, I've been successful.

Brimming
01-03-2012, 05:30 AM
I kind of just pulled this one out of my ass... Though this site isn't the first this name had graced; I was thinking of names one day, something cute, and I was just thinking of sounds and stuff (I use to run around with the name Rim, which don't get me started on the plethora of names it derived from), and mumbling some sounds in my head, Brimming popped up, and I was like "Oh, cute!". (actually, Brim popped up, and I added a ing to make it sound cuddly)

Angel Of Dreams
01-05-2012, 03:03 AM
It was really just one that I thought about it didn't really come from anywhere :)

Rho Aias VII
01-05-2012, 03:53 AM
I got it from the Nasuverse, a character in it, Archer, uses 'Rho Aias' as a last ditch defensive manoeuvre. Of course, there is the history behind Aias as well, but the Nasuverse was why I named myself so. ^_^

IIzak
01-05-2012, 04:18 AM
Haha funny story actually. I was trying to think up a name for an MMO i was playing and I decided that the name "Isaac" would be a cool one. Unfortunately, I was about ten at the time I made my character in that game and had no clue how to spell Isaac (the double a is tricky!!), so i wrote it how it sounded... Izak. Fortunately for me, the game itself glitched slightly and didn't show the first letter, when I typed it, so I retyped the I and the rest is history.

Lyndie
02-12-2012, 02:16 PM
It's my name. Not very exciting, but whatever. I almost made it 'The Loreley', after a song by Blackmore's Night, which is based off of a legend about this girl who would go around seducing guys, then killing them, and she was being brought to jail, and she asked if she could stand on this rock and look over the river one more time, and then she fell of the rock and drowned.

Mask
02-17-2012, 06:36 PM
I got this one from my favorite god from the forgotten realms setting in d&d even though he's believed to be dead atm :P

MissDred
02-17-2012, 06:41 PM
Um, well... Back when I was a Neopian, I started roleplaying under the username of bloodreddawn. No idea why now. Anyway, this was quickly shortened to blood (which was a bit gross) or dredd. Dredd was the one that stuck and it got lengthened to Dreddy, but this was just before the time where it became really popular to change Y's to Eh's, so, then I was Dreddeh. Which was all fine and dandy, but then I stopped really roleplaying and it was a name I associated with pretending to be a guy online and roleplaying slash. So, then I moved onto Flik for ages (no idea why this name either). But that's really mah gamin' name. Thus when I came back to roleplaying, I thought it best to go back to my original nickname. But update it a little now that I'm embracing my femininity and whatnot. Hence the Miss. And Eh's aren't really in fashion anymore. So, yeah, MissDred. :3

roan
02-25-2012, 01:11 PM
Roan means basically a red horse. My dad grew up on a farm and always liked the name. When I was born it was between Roan, Soral, Mary or Gaston if I were a boy. They stuck with Mary. Shame cause I really like the name Roan. ^__^

Anastasia
02-25-2012, 01:19 PM
Anastasia is simply my real name.

River
03-04-2012, 05:46 PM
^^ Mine is based off of my personality.

@ Bellz- It's because you are still under 'Newbie' status- you don't get free reign until after the mods have seen that you are active and grant you full membership status. The quickest and easiest way to get your stat changed is to find an rp or two that appeals to you and join 'em, or to create your own for others to join (or both!) Generally, a mod will change your status when you've hit anywhere between 25-75 posts.

Nehirr
04-04-2012, 03:05 AM
I copied one of my friend's names on an online game, because I loved it so much.

I was debating between "Skylar", "Nehirr" and "ZeMonstah" and eventually Nehirr actually logged onto the online game and I registered with her name. (:

Drakkon
04-04-2012, 03:38 AM
I was thinking of a last name to give a character.. I read somewhere that Darkkon was 'Lord' or something in Welsh I believe? I actually misspelled it and came up with something less translatable XD. Then a friend I roleplayed with started calling my character Drakkon a lot instead of his actually name and I kinda used it as my gamer handle since.

TheaterYank
04-06-2012, 02:38 AM
After meeting someone on Omegle, I had to make a new Skype account so we could chat there. That's where I first used my name. It refers to the fact that I love high school theater and that I'm American (a yankee).

flora19
04-06-2012, 02:46 AM
It's the name of my avatar picture character, and profile picture for that matter. Winx club was my favorite show as a younger kid, and this has been my favorite character from it, Flora. I liked her personality as a kid, I like the art style now. Oh, and 19 is my birthday day.

Imp
04-28-2012, 07:01 AM
I don't get names, names get me.

Imp is short for Imperial which waaaay back in a Fear Factory forum(old version) was accompanied by Edgecrusher (one of my fav songs by them). Then after sometime it was shortened to just ImpEdge(someday I'll make this into an actual word). I also extended it into ImperialEdge and ImpEdgecrusher.

Then I felt the mischievous creature fit me well and BAM Imp was born.

amber eyes
05-01-2012, 07:17 PM
My first character's storyline revolved around a guy with amber colored eyes...it just kind of stuck and I'm used to being called by it now.

Porcelain Doll
05-02-2012, 08:27 AM
My username is a song by Taylor Swift called Safe and Sound. I am a huge fan of hers and love her to bits.

AlikaKamashi
05-15-2012, 12:59 PM
My username is actually two of my favorite rp characters names

Alika was a small blue pixie with the ability to control ice. She was so much fun to play.

Kamashi was the last name of my very first character. Though she was not very good she was a kitsune.

Anyways so I smooshed my two favorite and first characters and made the name they kind of go together anyways

Bia
05-15-2012, 03:50 PM
As some of you know I used to be Blue_Tornado (which is a lame story in how I got that one) and then when the Alphabet Gang was at large I switched to B. When it came time to switch back I decided that I wanted something more...mature I guess you could say since Blue_Tornado had been my name since newb times. I knew I wanted to keep with "B" names and I admit the name B kind of grew on me so I gravitated toward smaller names with a big B sound to them. But I also wanted to be girly and cute. I narrowed it down to a few names and ultimately Bia was my favorite.

JoseWolf
05-15-2012, 04:11 PM
Well I said to Mr. Yellow Thong (previously known as Nazgul.) I says "Now listen here, I demand a new name, and pancakes and free ice cream and cars for everyone. Now I don't mean to drive hard bargain, but I do hope you'll understand, it's either that or nothin'!" and he/she, don't really know yet to be honest, says to me "You whippersnapper! I'll have ye know that I am the utmost authority around here and..." and that's when I proceeded to unload my six shooter all over the place. Thus I gained a new name and pancakes and ice cream for all! Also, your 2012 Lambos should arrive soon.

Summer Memories
05-15-2012, 06:42 PM
Well, my original username was Kendric_Oka.
Then I changed it to Sarcasm.

My username after that was Da Blue Sky. I chose this name while I was staring up at (what else) a cloudless blue sky.

For some reason, weather and seasonal names are something I've become attached to.

My favorite season is Autumn, so I just took that and added Breeze for all the cool breezes I feel on that particular season.

tommyboy
05-30-2012, 12:47 AM
Usually it's Tommyboybbi ... Tommyboy a moniker if I was a Blue Blaze Irregular. from the movie The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai in the 8th dimension.

When I got online in 2001, the thing most impressed was to get a moniker. So I picked one of my favorite fan fiction characters I created. My alter Ego, one could say. TB for short.

Well, after years (Days) of trying to come up with a name, ChiliChiliWongo just popped in my head. Since that day, I have been a crazy person who likes cats. Crazy, right? Naw, I liked cats since before then. I really chose it because it's unique.

PotterheadCade9
06-01-2012, 09:46 PM
Potterhead because I'm a Potterhead, I love Harry Potter. And Cade because of Johnny Cade from the Outsiders. He's my brother when I role play so yeah.

06-06-2012, 12:41 AM
well a long time ago when runescape was cool.(sorry if you still like runescape) my friend talked me into playing it with him. so we decided to make an account together, cuz he did not have the software for it. we could not decide on a username to save our lives. what he liked, i hated. and what i liked, he hated. eventually we decided to split the name. I chose the first half and he chose the second. I chose crazy cuz it was a cool adjective. He chose dog cuz he liked dogs. crazydog was taken so he thought about it. he decided to change it to dawg, cuz it sounded gangsta. then we just put 444 to have simple numbers we would remember. since then he screwed up the account, and ignores me all the time. however, when i would make an account on something i would always orget the username, so i just decided to go with one i already knew. now i usually have crazydawg444 as my username. except when i use anepicninja11, which is my xbox live gamertag, and has fgrown on me.

I used to go with character names for my username, but I never felt comfortable with it.

I just imagined a pixie-kitsune, lulz. XD

I go by a couple different things in various places, but I like when my name reflects some sort of literature, or literary term. It might be a play off of a book title or... just whatever. In other sites I'm "Grape Expectations", or "The Grape Gatsby". lol I chose another literary term, Satire, for this site. I even googled, "Literary terms". I like this name. :3

Well..On a different site I changed my name to "iClaidi" (Claidi is my main wolf character and what people knew me as, wolf packs were quite popular on that site) And then I changed it to "iRoleplay" once that site started to shun the roleplayers. (And eventually shut the roleplaying forums down) And my Claidi character was quite feisty, and I thought, "Rawr, I'm scary, I eat youu!" and thus iWillEatzYuh was born. xD

Lilly is my name...
My parents are always reminding me to not give out information online and when i first came up with this username i felt kind of invisible to the world because no one really took the time to get to know who i am since i've grown up. Hence, hidden :P

I was a tan, blonde blue-eyed model who wanted to be an actress. That apparently used to be the cliche california girl. These days it's a bit different, but I'm not going to get into stereotyping the rest of the california girls now.

My cousins have called me miscellaneous ever since I was little. It was a variation on my real name which will remain unknown. I have had to change it up to fit availability needs.

Sky
01-02-2013, 06:12 PM
I once read a book series called Warriors a while ago, and there was a clan called SkyClan. I loved the clan so much, and I loved 'sky' alot, so I named myself Skywing- but that changed once I stopped reading the series, and now I am known as Sky.

I love the name Sky now, it's just too amazing^^

Spazzmatic
01-02-2013, 06:22 PM
I've got three possible ideas that make sense and could be ALL actually affecting the reasoning behind my current Username "Spazzmatic". Just putting that there in-case I change it, which I probably will...Because...Reasons...

Now then, on to the main course.

#1. I was Hungover. I suffer an emotional illness so I may have gone in to medicaments or other things that I shouldn't have...And thus tipped the scales just enough to put me in a state of innability to be controlled, where emotions speak and the mind just stays still and watches from affar. Like a puppy.

#2. Brainwashed. I don't know how to describe this one, but if you've ever watched MIB or the one movie about Aliens in Tuxes...Well you see em and then you forget they were even there. It's possible, I don't know what interest I hold to the greater vastly more intelligent species, but oh well...Spies...Go figure, one point they seem like an innocent medic...AND THEN BOOM, BACKSTAP WITH A TINY TOENAIL CLIPPER, KNIFE-THINGY.

#3. Inspiration. Now this one is probably the most reasonable and rational one. Spontaneous inspiration is a common thing, so I might have just experienced something to inspire me and put me off in particular mood that required this name.

Stuff happens and then after time, we wonder why...Can't give you a straight answer, just possible ideas...

Narwain
01-09-2013, 10:51 PM
Narwain is the Sindarin word for the month equivalent to January, from what I understand, and I love winter and Elvish, so I used that name for a character I had a while ago. I recently decided to use that name again when I registered on another RP forum, and I'm using it here as well, for simplicities sake. XD

Mfable
01-09-2013, 11:22 PM
It's quite the boring story, how I got my username. Have any of you heard of or played any of the games in the Fable series? I got the first one around the time when it came out, and after getting obsessed with it, I found myself trying to come up with a username for another site. I tried adding it to anything and everything, but most of the names including 'Fable' in the title were taken. I then decided to just shorten 'Master Fable' to 'Mfable'. It wasn't taken, it was almost never used in any MMOs or forums, and it was catchy, so it stuck. I have been using it ever since.

01-09-2013, 11:34 PM
I got my username because, short and simple, I've had some dark times in my life, most of which have scarred me mentally and emotionally. Also, because my whole world at these times seem clouded, blocking out the sunshine and making everything dark and fuzzy. Thus the name 'My Darkest Hour' to remember those times when I was extremely sad or angry or depressed/

Sort of depressing, but you get the picture :3

AwkwardnessIsAwesome

I got my username because 1) I love, LOVE owls. 2) I'm a very weird person but not in a creepy way. Like today I told my theatre teacher I'm glad curtains don't bleed because then our torn curtain would bleed everywhere! That kind of weird. But that kind of weirdness causes me to feel really lonely sometimes, especially when thinking about my lack of suitors and the prospect of remaining alone FOREVER! But I'm not a desperate person though, just a deep thinker and a good masker of feelings.

So that's how I got my username

Well I got my character name trying to think of a decent Orc name for another game. My other name that I would've used would have been Olghar for the same reason.

Aishiteru
02-13-2013, 07:48 AM
My name was gotten from the Japanese name, "Aishiteru" which means "I love you" in Japanese when you are in a serious relationship. My name also has to do with my character whom I used to use that I have neglected until recently.

Pfvex
02-15-2013, 08:44 PM
pfvex is just a nickname I used from one of my favourite flash game villain. Vex who is a scientist is looking for ultimate power and is dangerous. the pf is actually to represent the game but yeah. I have another reason for pf also means poisoned fate which Vex's fate is kinda like and I'm not the luckiest or happiest person in the world (has some problems) so it kinda fits it seems my life isn't that great but it gets better every now and again like an antidote some dark stuff but it's made me a nice guy :)

Mr. Boxer
02-21-2013, 06:36 AM
So here's the story long ago when I was about 8 or 9 my mother got into an online slot machines thing purely fro fun (no money involved) and her username was boxer_mom34 for growing up we had a boxer dog named merlin and we had him since I was born so he was like a second son to her. It was at this time I got into Runescape (don't hate I bet most of you have played). So I being a mothers boy made my name Boxer Dad. And that's how it stayed, from time totime I would get asked if I was a father and I would always reply no. These question never bothered me much. I got my start in roleplaying on the Runescape forums and stayed there for years only leaving after a permanent-ban due to an arguement. I stopped actively roleplaying for sometime. 2 years ago I picked up League of Legends and again I picked Boxer Dad as my summoner name. It was here I got sick of the father comments people made jokes every other game it seemed. 4 months later I joined ******************** where I shortened my user to simply Boxer. The Mr. Part is a recent edition as of this month due to a thread that unfortunately died having 2 members with Mr. In their names so on a whim I added it as a joke.
