Im interested to know what made you choose the name you chose, does it actually hold any significance at all or is it completely throwaway.

Once wrote a story about a group of people calling themselves Daimons. Ruled by the ArchDaimon.
It quickly became a nick for a lot of games.

And I like the origin of the word. Daimon being greek for beings of both good and chaos (Eudaimon and Kakodaimon).
Precurser for the latin Deamon.

It is merely one of my many names. Interesting tidbit, so far almost all of my post Val'Dore alts have been named using 'Val' somewhere in the first name and 'Dore' somewhere in the last name.

Max Planck was taken, so I went with his legal name, then made him Asian because at the time this race ruled for attribute maps.

Have to admit though, my largest regret in this game is giving my main a real first name. I now respond to Karl in public, which is as you could guess is annoying as hell.

Allot of people seem to put a **** tonne more thought into it that i did. THanks for the replies guys. Also my bad for failing to see the original post, this was just an idea that popped into my head while driving today as i tend to take my char name with me across multiple games ect and im not really sure why,
