    Well, Maldir is the name of a character of mine in a LARP game (actually Harton Maldir). I've had a lot of fun playing the character - everyone in the game thinks that he's evil and not to be trusted, but I've manipulated my way to gaining lots of power in the game, including leading one of the largest group of "good" characters in the system. It all makes for a lot of fun in roleplaying.

    As I think everyone who's played the BG series knows that my name came from the ever cool shadow thieves. Hehe, anyone nicked recently?

    Edit: Oh yeah, I also like to call meself Shadow Goddess. Although Dudette says that I'd be married off with Aran Linvail because he's the "Shadow Master". I say no because Bloodscalp is the Shadow Master.

    Well, I actually made this name before I knew about the Monk class in BG2 as I love Kung Fu and Jackie Chan in the Drunken Master series. When I found out about the Monk class in BG2 I was really happy. It also describes the way I play my main character in BG2, (one of three - also Cav & Inv to be WildM) ie. wild, fearless with fists and legs pounding into my opposition!

    My name is the name I have been using for my D&D characters (and subsequently BG characters). As of now this name has been in use for 25 years.

    My name was stolen from my Guinea Pig Mini. Surely there's some way to change me name, Tal, to something paladinly, like Sir Yerril of Kultar.

    That's strange, my entry has vanished also

    so here it is again:

    Duskai, pronounced 'duss-kye(rhyming with sky)
    It is supposed to me mean 'she who sees in the darkness' or dusk eye. A suitable name for a mysterious thief, or so I thought at the time :p

  12. Zaragoth Guest

    Well, acctually Zaragoth doesn´t mean shit!
    But my last name - Melkhior - was the name of one of the three wise men in the bible.
    I decided to change and thought that Zaragoth would sound cool.
    And that´s it :)

    [​IMG] Ach! All this name changing business is confusing me; I get to know who some bozo is, only to have them change their name like some felon trying to make a fresh start in a small midwestern town! ;)

    ClammyRyu. Have you ever played that game street fighter? Do you notice after playing for a while your hands get sweaty?
    Voila.

    When I'm at Dudette's house, after we play her Nintendo 64 for about half an hour, I start losing control of the controller with all the perspiration forming on my hands.

    If you don't know who Gonff is you should read Redwall. But for those of you who haven't Gonff is the Prince of Mouse-Thiefs. It fits me I thought because I'm fast and nimble and the name just kicks ass.
