What's yours called and why? - Page 4

IdiotRogue · 02-06-2001, 10:10 AM

My current character is Connor, a fighter/thief. The name comes from Leon Uris' book "Trinity," the main protagonist being Connor Larkin. After playing Icewind Dale, when I set up a female character, I believe she'll be an elven fighter or ranger with the name Kaylessa (sad story - the "Hand's" and hers).

BTW, the main reason I enjoyed IWD was being able to create the whole party. Could really play to their strengths. That party consisted of me, a human male ranger named Sorrowblade (don't ask, just couldn't get it out of my head), a dwarven male fighter named Thorvald Bloodaxe (his greatest line: "Oh SURE, when all else fails put the dwarf up front."), a female Paladin named Darwynna, a gnomish male thief named Syngyn Lytefinger (not too original, huh), a female mage named Ygraine (from Arthurian legend) and a female cleric named Moira Palefyre (how'd I come up with that??).

I tend to go for variations on Arthurian names with a lot of Irish, Welsh and Nordic influences. I actually have a list of names for future use. Hmmm... mayhaps I have a little too much time on my hands... LOL

Tyvärr inte. Flyttade ifrån Sverige för 10 år sen och mina nya "halvdumma" kompisar förstår sig inte på rollspel!

WOLFGIR · 02-06-2001, 10:36 AM

Attans! ;-(

Det var ju synd, som gammal Drakar & Demoner fan hade det varit kul att se hur det utvecklat sig, har ju inte gått så bra för pojkarna på sistånde men nu tillverkas det på licens. Nåja, var bor du nudå? Finns det ingen chans att banka lite vett i dom?

Vicotnik · 02-06-2001, 10:53 AM

Har flyttat hem till den lilla ön i norra Atlanten, men var nånstans bor du i Sverige?

WOLFGIR · 02-06-2001, 10:55 AM

Menar du Island?

Jag bor i Göteborg.

I based my name on the elven language Tolkien used in his books. It is a elven translation of "bladesinger". I thought it sounded very elven warriorish.

Vicotnik......... Vel... kan ikke akkurat si at jeg har spillt Drakar & Demoner selv..... men det har liksom alltid vært et skjellsord her i Norge. Folk ville lage korsets tegn og holde to pinner i kors for å holde folk som nevnte Drakar & Demoner langt unna seg! *L* Så jeg har ikke noe personlig imot det. Som sagt.... nesten bare en refleks. Aeon derimot er veldig bra.
