    A book by Don Perrin. It is in the Dragonlance saga, and the character is a Draconian.

    [​IMG] I was knighted for bravery in a Yorkshire pudding incident outside of Chester, England a few years ago. My legend has grown ever since!

    Okay...Belisarius is one of my favorite generals from antiquity. I added "Durendal" as a last name when roleplaying (Durendal was Roland's Sword in "The Song of ROland")Anyway, Belisarius re-captured much of the Western Roman Empire for Justinian and the Byzantine Empire. The "Sir" is because I play paladins usually, so I wanted a cool title.

    Another favorite general from ancient history is Scipio Africanus...But Sir Scipio sounded a little silly....:p ;)

    I posted this on a similar thread, around last year...

    It still applies. :)

    ~~~~~~

    Driving around in the evenings while listening to music is something I love doing. It clears my head and relaxes me. Xenecor once told me in the chatroom that I probably spend a lot of money on gas. :)I figure its better than blowing it all on booze. :D

    I'm sure I've posted this before... ;)

    Harton Maldir was a character I came up with in a live-action roleplay game. He was great fun to play - nasty, scheming, manipulative (not at all like yours truly). Every other character hated him, but eventually he became one of the most powerful characters in the system, although he never passed 4th level.

    I once spelt "Arabel" wrong and it stuck. I use this name in just about everything. Including my first BG2 char :)

    [​IMG] from koine greek ... it is the word for "Disciple" or "Student". Studying the Bible I've learned that my role is to stay as close to the Master that I can, and soak up all that He has to offer. :good:

    [​IMG] Well I picked the name SleepleSS because I couldn't sleep. I was a bit down in that time and wories keep me awake.

    It's also a song played by Anathema, and the combination of that song, my version of it, and the state my mind was in, at that moment gave me this name. Sometimes followed by 666 as some berk has taken SleepleSS (Or Sleepless most boards, don't see a cap as a difrent letter).

    Well, the name Kitrax was totaly a mistake. I was going to name my PC for GBII Kitthix (the same name as the huge spider you can summon) but I forgot how to spell it. I knew that it started with a 'K' and ended with a 'x', so after a few re-typings, I got the name Kitrax, sounded good, looked right, and I liked it. Also, I know its totaly origianal! It's been my male PC's name for every game I've ever played. :rolling:
