Tell us all why you named your character what you did?


Me i named this Assassin TheRevenant because Revenants are mythological creatures that are known to bring death and decay with them and lets face it, the Assassins are one of the sole reasons this game seems to be dying

    I'm Xainou because... I fail at typing. True story lol
    But the word I actually wanted to type means as much as *partner, soul mate* so I thought it fitting for a veno. And hey, it's a cool sounding unique name b:cool

    Duct tape is like The Force: bright on one side, dark on the other. It holds the world together, and, if not handled correctly, becomes a sticky mess.

    AnimeDD is short for Animedevildog. That is my handle everywhere. "Anime" for the fact that I am a big time Japanede anime fan, and have even served on staff for an anime convention a couple times. "Devildog" is a nickname for a Marine. I served in the Marine Corps from 91-95, so the name fits. Also, if you initialize AnimeDevilDog, it comes as ADD, and I can be VERY attention deficit lol. Lastly, my motorcycle license plate reads ANIMEDD.

    On my second character, a lvl 74 Barbarrian, I picked the name HadesHound, which is a play on the term Devildog. And my faction is named HADES MC. The "MC" meaning both Marine Corps and Motorcycle Club.

    Well, Synsae's name has no special meaning... I couldn't think up a name so I looked up at my wall and saw my hockey stick hanging up where I saw the brand and model name written on it "Easton Synergy"... so I took "Syn" from "Synergy" and "Eas" from Easton... and came up with Synsae

    as for my alt "Onbekend" after playing PWI for a week or two I wanted to try a BM... couldn't come up with a name so I asked fellow faction members what Nameless was in Dutch (most of my faction were from Holland)... and they replied "Onbekend" would be a better name as it means "Unknown"

    I chose the name Zanryu because on another game I made another account with a name similar, but it didn't quite seem good enough so I kept messing with it and eventually the name Zanryu came out and I've liked it ever sense.

    i don't quite get this...

    The original, uncensored, subtitled Naruto is actually quite violent, and the Character Naruto is much less... Lets say, **** than he is in the Dubbed version.

    Seeing how I've seen almost all of Naruto Subtitled and uncut, uncensored... And around 5 minutes of it Cut, censored, and dubbed... If you can call it Narutard, then it says something about YOU to say it. >_>

    Though, if you've only seen the BS on Fox Kids or whatever shows the **** up version we get here, I can totally see why you call it that... I swear, the poor **** lost 3/4 of his IQ when they dubbed that show. >_>

    Euthymius (Psychic) - This name's actually ironic in nature, as it roughly means "in good spirits"...which she's usually not.

    SharkAngel - The name Marna was taken, so I used her alternative title.

    Zecora (Mystic) - Because...

    When I read the description for wizards I immediately connected the class to one of my favorite characters in my favorite book In Legend Born which I totally recommend by the way. But then Mirabar was taken and GuardianMirabar was too long so I used her nickname and my fail spelling did the rest.b:chuckle

    Most of my other characters ended up named the same way.

    Whats even worse is what 4kids did to One Piece. Myself, I'm reading the Manga again just because it's so much better, that and I spend too much time gaming to bother trying to find the links to dl the subbed anime again. (used to have it on my old EHDD before it died. should have backed it up on disk lol. I think this is incentive for me to spend coin on disks again, I am starting to get a decent amount of stuff again. (almost 100Gigs of anime so far)
