I thought it might be interesting if people gave the origins of their forum names (not foreign names). Are they from a book or movie or just totally made up?

Mine is my previous DnD character, a Halfling Transmuter. I think I got the idea for the first name from a Terry Brooks book (think I changed the spelling a bit though). Farseer because I took infra vision and keen sight and Elmwood because of Willow Ufgood from Willow. I wanted a woody name (keep the comments to yourselves, thanks).

My current DnD character is "Jarka Ruus" which was taken from Terry Brooks latest novel which you can see on the Strategy First, Disciples 2 board.

i did an acrylic painting 10 years ago, with all these robotic-looking Valkyrie angels exploding out of a psychedelic blue frozen supernova, in the icy torment of deep space. Then I got unbelievably loaded on vodka shots, and called the painting 'valknova' .
