Ok, here we go again.
Well it all started about two years ago, when i first played diablo online. I was searching for a nick to enter. At that time i used killerbee alot on lanprties, but its a comonly used nick on the internet so it was taken. I have a calander with celebraties on it and that month it was Angelina Jolie and so i mixed those two names to a cool nick.
Voila, it is a short version of the story though. But it has what is needed. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
Joliekiller, paladin on a crusade against (almost) all evil.

Well the whole long drawn out story of how i finally wound up picking my nick name or alias as Virgo Bluefire. Ok so back in the day in highschool some 3 or 4 years ago,i was first introduced into Dnd3 Dungeon & Dragons 3.0 in highschool by some new found friends. I had a need of a nick name or alias and so it came to be of that day forth that i was to be known as Christar Lithian (my DnD favorite Fantasy hero I made up)Christar Lithian began in short when i took time aside for myself to think of a name like 30 minutes. So i took my real first name Christopher (short for Chris) and added tar to the end to make it sound sort of half-elfsh (im obsessed with half-elves as a race, FYI half Human and half Elf). I then just start saying stuff untill i got to "Lith" then i needed something else i needed an ending on to it, well some elvish names have "ian" at the end so i put the two together to make "Lithian", Forming Christar Lithian.
(And it realates trust me, i spaced it out for you small readers hahaha <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
Sometime after a year later i decided to pursue another name. I then thought of my zodiac sign after searching online about what a "regular virgo's qualities are" well and Virgo sounds cool too. Well that was easy. I then needed a last name which required deeper thinking. It came to me, "how bout i just place words that are my favorite together and see what sounds cool." I thought of my favorite color blue and (what feels good on a hot summers day besides rain) wind. So there i had it Virgo Bluewind. But wait my alias on the located to the left of the screen says Virgo BlueFIRE. You ask how this came to pass. Well now that you've asked i guess i can't resist. I began thinking of the elements and found that having "Fire" would sound better. I began a great undertaking of writing down the smybolic meanings possible for wind and fire. I came to stand still a draw persay. I just went with "Fire" cause it sounds better, but i still use "wind" if "fire" is somehow taken. In other words when someone uses the name Virgo Bluefire online as an alias
(I don't think anyone is silly enough to come up with that name in the first place besides you chris, well your wrong in mulitiplayer games the games that are free or if i have a free 15 day trial period i found "Sometimes" it is taken) I would then use Virgo_Bluewind as an alias or nickname instead.
Well thats about it (*I think <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />*) enjoy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stupid.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/alien.gif" alt="" />
This is SpArTa!! oh im sorry, I must have took a wrong turn..somewhere...(runs away)

Amazing! You should put this story in a book, it'd be a bestseller! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> (although maybe not suitable for children due to the thrilling elements)

kiya => female Ancient Egyptian name in the strategy game Pharao. Used it there, liked it, used it for my RPG if I play a non-paladin. Found out later that a secret wife of Echnaton (heretic Pharao) was called this name. Like it even more now. Why? It's short and I reduce typo danger <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> Kiya

@Kejero: I notice while poking fun at Virgo that you deftly avoided telling us the origin of your own name <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
@Kiya: I always wondered where you got kiya from <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The Alrik had to be invented within very few minutes at the "Spielemesse Essen" exhibition , where I was joining an adventure for the German RPG system DSA - my first RPG round ever ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
I kept him throughout the years, and logged in with this name into the old LMK-Forums. The rest is history. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
EDIT : @jvb : My dictionary says "abbreviation" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
