after playing arround a few houres with the old character creator my old avatar looked like a Digital artificial guardian optimized for troubleshooting. But since "Dagoft" sounds silly, he just got "Dagot". However, the new avatar doesn't fit this name anymore What?

Unsubscribe.

But, if you didn't read my post from before:

Cocytus: Glacier imprisoning Lucifer
Nandy: Inara's hooker friend from FIrefly.

So it goes.

Well, I decided to go with an Amarrian style name.

For the first name, I went with a rather common Persian/Iranian name, since the Amarrian language seems to have some Farsi elements thrown in there.

And for the last name, I went with the coolest-sounding Heir family name.

Well, First off, the Sir designates nobility, which I possess. And HappyPants implies I am horny... So... this is awkward.....

Tora = Japanese for Lion as is my IRL name.
Oni = Creatures from Japanese folklore, variously translated as demons, devils, ogres or trolls.

Its the darker side of my main char.

Because when I joined the Army, (British), Craftsman was my rank, (Private), and 074 was the last 3 digits of my serial number.

BTW, this was 39 years ago.

Sri Nova and Nitra are sisters that were on a intergalactic vessel traveling from one galaxy to another .

Unfortunately through some kinda of miscalculation the ship collided with a unknown intergalactic object that nearly destroyed the ship . Fortunately their stasis chambers survived the impact . Unfortunately the impact strew their containment facilities in opposite directions. Sri Nova was recovered via a salavging operation in the metropolis regions of a place in the universe called EVE.

Nitra on the other hand arrived in a galaxy far far away , and her life is nearing the end as that galaxy is dying to a force that has destroyed many a universe . may she rest in peace .

I helped my dad create his character name, and we came up with "Garian Mothas". Later, when I created my own character, I used the same surname, seeing as we're related and all... ^_^ As for "Jerek", I just came up with it, cause it sounded sci-fi-ish enough.

Ban Lemur for being kinky in public!

CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.

Because of this.

It rocks and it's easier for me to spell than "Karhunkaatolaulu" , "Ryyppäjäiset", or "Tapporauta".

This is my third main. The other two were biomassed because I didn't like them.

To choose a name for me, I use KOTOR's name generator. Then I remove and add letters until I get something I like...
After an hour of that, I just decided to use my cat's name and a randomish last name.

I had a "popular" Icelandic website (ok more of a blog)
punktur means dot in icelandic so -> .is

my friends sometimes nickname me Punkturis because of that:)

Bauhaus's excellent post-punk thrash-ish song "Telegram Sam." Which is a cover of T. Rex's goofy beboppy song "Telegram Sam."
