Andraste was the right genre, yet suitably obscure. I have occasionally wondered how many other posters would get the reference.

Originally posted by Circe: My name is something I have had for all the years Ive had a computer. Its from the tales of Odysseus. Circe or (Kirke) is the daughter of Helios (The Sun) and Perseis (the daughter of Okeanos). On her island... in her palace... Circe waits for lost sailors to come wandering to her door as supplicants. Normally, a traveler is treated as a special guest but with Circe, travelers are drugged and then served as dinner.

*Stumbles into Circe's place*

Wow! What's for dinner? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

[Kal Zakath]

My name isn't anything new, I just took it from David Eddings' Malloren series. `Zakath was one of my favorite characters, and its revealed in the beginning of the Malloren that the ` stood for Kal, which is actually an old rank meaning King and God.

[Don Bolo]

Don Bolo is a villain from a comic book called Lycra Woman/Spandex Girl. It was an underground comic in the 1990's that was based on the old Sid & marty Krofft production of Electra Woman and Dyna girl.

Anyway Don Bolo is a famous Mexican film star/Vampire killer. He acts like a Zorro/Don juan type romancing woman but wears a toupee to cover his balding head.

But he is a villain and tries to take over the town where Lycra Woman and Spandex live but is thwarted.

Actually both Lycra Woman and Spandex girl are fairly incompetent when fighting crime. They had to get help from Santo and the Aztec Mummy (real famous Mexican superheroes).

The comic book series is well worth reading. Lots of hilarious villains like The Prom Queen, The evil Prude, Mr Distinguished, Passion and Ecstasy, stupid guy, and Ooh-lala (the sexy but evil French Pastry chef) .

BTW I used to play City of Heroes and so I named most of my characters form this comic book series L-)

[javan]

When I went to university they gave us userids based on your first and middle initials added to your last name. Mine became "javanhezewyk"; my friends shortened it to "javan".

Just like many others here, I was stumped to come up with an awesome forum name so I just used the first one to come to mind.

Maybe we Canadians just like to keep it simple.
