just a thought... where did your username/screenname/whatever you want to call it come from? smurf90: well, all my friends call me smurf (maybe cause i'm short and wear blue a lot : and 90 was just a number i came up with. celestial darkness: i dunno. came to me out of the blue and i though what the heck? lord genesis: baddie of Genesis Chronicle but that's just me. i ask because there are some crazy names out there that you people made. -the smurf

My name actually came from playing Everquest. On the PC I made an Ogre and I needed a warrior sounding name. My brother actually came up with Tinbok, and I've used it for warrior-type characters in all games.

Well, there's a bit more detail to my name than what I posted before, so here it is. One playthrough of FFIX, I renamed Zidane as "Dragon", 'cause I was (and still am) really interested in dragons. I also started saying it with a different pronounciation to make it sound more interesting; I pronounced it as dray-gone (gone as in not here). Eventually I wanted to use that name as my screenname at the old Enix boards, but I figured that people wouldn't know how to pronounce it right (not to mention "dragon" probably was likely already taken), so I added the "y" and "e" to "dragon" so it would be easier to pronounce right. And of course, it turns out "Draygone" means "heart of a dragon", which is a coincidence. (Found this out because someone asked me 'cause he had a middle name of Draygone.)
Also, I eventually decided to make Draygone the name of the main character of a game I've yet to release. Note I'm not intending to base the character on myself, I just like the name, which is why I use it about everywhere I go online.

Post by Dark Knight Of Lodis on Apr 25, 2005 21:40:35 GMT -5
My name comes from Tactics Ogre: A Knight of Lodis. It was a decent game, but oddly enough not one of my favorites (FFT, FO:LUCT, Brigandine). I picked it because everyone has heard of AKoL, and it was a close link to TO.
As for the Dark Knight part...aren't the bad guy knights so much cooler than the good guys? (with a few exceptions)

Dark Horizons:My name comes from an actual book I'm writing. (yes an actual book soon to be published). Although my book and my game are galaxies away from each other, I just love the name. The thought of it's impeding doom. The lack of all hope and order. It gives a feeling of forboding.

I've explained this before. My name is Brandon. The name Brandon (I believe) means "Sword of Fire".
Now, "Hi" (In Japanese) means "fire" and "tou" means "sword". So, you can see how that works. And I think that Japanese is a very artistic sounding language (and I like Japanese culture and such), so I chose that.
I made up Fallen Angel a little while back because it was based off an inside joke between my friends and me.

dark horizons: are you sure your going to have your book published, or are you going to be finished with it soon? do you have a publisher already willing to publish it? getting a book published is very hard...

Hahaha... just a little info on me..I'm 36 years old, so yeah I've been around long enough to set myself up with a publisher.... I'm envious of all you members tho. I wish we had these great games when I was in my teens-20's..Lucky people! Like this game, I can't actually pin point the time when it will be released but will let everyone here know when it comes out.

I'm sure I've covered this somewhere else, but my name comes from the character in my stories called Avalon Rune. The "The Final" part is there because it sounds cool.
