Give the origin of your nick (even if it's obvious)

[Soulforged]

I don't know if anybody has done it before but here i put mine:
Soulforged is a song for the german epic power metal band "Blind Guardian", wich tells the story of Raistlin of the Dragonlance series.

[Samurai Waki]

I have that book My nickname comes from complete boredom... oh and the little Japanese Sword I used to have.

[Azi Tohak]

Demon in Thomas Harlan's Oath of Empire series.

My standard internet name is Fuh Teng... but I lost that account long ago.

Azi

[Kaiser of Arabia]

Kaiser as in Caesar, of Arabia from Pape for my kill everyone responses to simple problems.

[Byzantine Prince]

I'm of 100% byzantine romaios lineage so I named myself accordingly.

[Redleg]

It is the Civil War term for the United States (Union Troops) Army Field Artillery soldiers. It came about because the Army used colors to designate the different branches of the Army - and a stripe was sewn along the outseam of the pants leg. Red is the color for Artillery - hence Redlegs came about as the Nickname.

[Sjakihata]

I have that book My nickname comes from complete boredom... oh and the little Japanese Sword I used to have.

I think you mean a Wakizashi then

My name derives from a Taiwanese pencil company spelled (I think) Schachihata or something - which I then re-spelled Sjakihata

[King Henry V]

From my hero King Henry V of England, victor of Agincourt.

[Beirut]

My love, my life, my dog.

[Mongoose]

My love, my life, my dog.

i always thought that my dog looked like a giant mongoose and acted like a pig*. I nicknamed it piggy, but i decided that "Mongoose" would be a better username.


*By "Acted like a pig" I mean rolled around in the mud, snorted loudly and ate large amounts of dog feces

*edit*

[Dutch_guy]

Well I 'm really bad at picking a nick.. so I just chose something easy...

[Ianofsmeg16]

Mine came from an Episode of Red Dwarf where Dave lister using an AR machine to go into a Medievil Game...he then proceeds to announce himself "I, am Lister of Smeg"
the 16 part comes from my lucky number, 16. Which i got because of some sporting issues....

[Albino Gorilla]

I was twelve, and since my regulard name was already taken, the game service, suggested this one.

[Meneldil]

Some character from LotR

[Papewaio]

Daughter of the Empire Series of books.

[Sigurd]

Daughter of the Empire Series of books.

Is that the Raymond E. Feist and Janny Wurst co-authored books? Great story BTW…
My nick comes from one of the greater medieval heroes: Sigurd the Dragon slayer. The dragon is Fafne and Sigurd gave it the mortal wound, hence Sigurd the bane of Fafne (Fafnesbane/Fafnirsbane).

[Ser Clegane]

From GRRM's "Song of Ice and Fire" series

[IliaDN]

I don't know if anybody has done it before but here i put mine:
Soulforged is a song for the german epic power metal band "Blind Guardian", wich tells the story of Raistlin of the Dragonlance series.

BG is cool, though the last album is not so cool, as previous.

[Geoffrey S]

I only ever really liked the last two tracks off Opera.
As to my nick, guess...

[Ironside]

A strong Danish general from one of my MTW campaigns.

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

My name was the most accurate thing I could come up with at the time...

[xemitg]

I had just looked at my new timex watch and i spelled "timex" backwards and put a G on the end because my last name starts with a 'G'.

[Soulforged]

BG is cool, though the last album is not so cool, as previous.

What are you kidding me man!!!
With that last album i made my home shake and i threw it down to rocks, and then the voice of Hansi opened the skies and God told me to shut down the music because i was molesting the angels... . Especially "And Then There Was Silence" was brilliant, one of the best songs ever, i would recomend that everybody hear that song, it's about the Iliad and is brillianty written, tough some "soft guys" will not like the powerful voice of Hansi.

15 years ago I was in London with a friend. We went off in search of an Ethiopian restaurant we had found in a directory.
We didn't fint it, and for some reason we ended up at an "all you can eat" pizza buffet. We were very ironic, I guess.
We found the house red to be modestly priced, and gave it more attention than the pizza, which was probably of little merit.
I eventually had to "go", and proudly announced that this would indeed be the largest leak since the Titanic.
My friend then said

Quote:
"Ya'll take a listen, you'll hear the deep sound comin' down from Paul Peru."

which is a line from "Wild at heart", only it's said by Bobby Pery about Bobby Peru.
My friend later explained that
a) I think I'm very deep, but all that comes out of me is piss
b) He thought I resembled Willem Dafoe (I don't)

The name stuck, and I've been using it as an alias and "evil alter ego" since.

[Crazed Rabbit]

Taurus is also a gun maker, and they make a revolver called the raging bull.

Me? Well, I had some pet rabbits, and had watched the Holy Grail, and it just fell into place.

Crazed Rabbit

[Taurus]

Cool, you learn something new everyday.

But I wouldn't name myself after a gun

[Divinus Arma]

I joined for my love of TW, and at the time RTW was it. So I wanted something Latin and military.

And well, Divinus Arma is pretty easily translated:

Arms of the Divine.

[makkyo]

Makkyo came from the STW days. It's a minor Japaneese demon that plagues people in their dreams. But don't quote me on it

[ArcticSonata]

ArcticSonata is just another indication that my mind is to consumed listening to power ( just the Band Sonata Arctica backwards) that and I really could'nt think of anything else to put.

[Strike For The South]

The south will rise again
