Dalamar Stormcrow 06-23-2004 12:26 PM

Well, as some may know, Stormcrow is NOT original. It's Gandalf's surname. And Dalamar I thought of myself, with inspiration from Dalaran(3 Super Secret Stormcrow points for who or waht Dalaran is). I was then told Dalamar was Raistlin's apprentice. D'oh! So I combined them. Now Dalamar is currently kicking the crap out of Amellysan the Blackhearted.

Also you may spot his little brothers in Runescape, Tibia, Diablo II, and JK3(a little out of place but whatever) His little bros are: Talkir, Narar, Danthylar, and Skael.

Where did I get my name? I just thought it up as an interesting character for Bg2, but then I decided to add him into one of the stories I'm writing.

I was playing bg2 at the time! Although I hate the name now, I wish it was changeable...

Yeah, we would never've guessed, Ross [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I honestly like to see certain members with intriguing names participate in this thread. There's someone here with the mindboggling name of Terrortoilet, i'd really like him to explain where he came up with that. Or do i need to be afraid to find out ? :D

And then there's Andijvieschotel.... he probably didn't come up with that name while chewing on a broodje kroket. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

I wanna know. :D

Svaerdhelgon 06-23-2004 05:09 PM

My name is actually the Swedish word for Kensai,got it from playing BG2,heh.
only use it on this board though.

I wondered what it would be like if Gollum was drunk one night, couldn't spell his name and decided to knight himself afterwords.

I want to know where that guy with the perplexing name that's something like "NewtoBG2" post. I'm dying to know where he got that.
I'd also like to know if he's still new to the game after two years.

Not everyone joins a board with the intention of staying there. Go look through the member directory, and you'll see what I mean. ;)

Some guys at work picked up that my real name is from the main character from the Die Hard movies, and it evolved over a period of time (long story) to How ard? ... WELL'ARD! (say it with a north of England accent)

As nicknames go it's not bad I suppose. Better than some i've had [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

wellard 06-24-2004 12:58 AM

Just a post to revert back to my original sig... :D

Bungleau 06-24-2004 01:16 AM

One of my character names... my first thief, who I thought would probably bungle everything he tried (as low-level characters often do). But to make it more interesting and less obvious, I "frankified" it by adding "-eau" onto the end.

I pronounce it like the English word "bungalow".

Loudhy 06-24-2004 01:26 AM

It's a modification of my first name. I created it, because I needed a name for my character in RPG's and somehow it sounds good for me :D .
