I rolled in a star lance called the "Iron Wolves" back in the mech warrior 2 days they divided thier lance into the bears, wolves and foxs by mech weight, one of my favorite mechs was the nova as it accomidated my laser saw setup all too well, I got to be known as one heck of an ankle biting pilot clipping feet and legs off other mechs.

Since then I've used the call sign for all my science ficiton game settings.

When I started this guy, he was going to be a drone heavy combat alt.
I thought Puppet Master was a nice name for such a character. I had to add a ' cause all the combinations I tried were taken.
However, he became a hauler alt lol

A long time ago, in 1999, I created a character, a warrior who stood there, stupid looking and swinging a pointy stick. I saw another character passing by me, sporting a bow and then, he fired an arrow. I loved it. I erased my warrior, started an archer and used a name that, to me, imitated the sound of an arrow cutting through the air "SWOOSH!"

Also, in pop culture, Swooshie means something cool :p

Character name was randomly assembled from consonants and vowels.

Only a few years later, as part of a primarily euro-corp, did I learn it actually has a meaning.

Much, much too late now, and to be honest, whatever.

I invented this name when the internet got popular.
As I already had used the name on a char to try out Eve, and I couldn't remember my login.
I started a new account, and added 06 as the year I rejoined New Eden.

Mistress Terrify

#190 - 2011-10-08 10:36:37 UTC
Well my name Teresa but I call myself Terri. My husband thought as I really like PvP (DAoC, WAR) I would really like a Pirate character.
He thought that un-cloaking a large drone battleship and scaring some noobs would appeal to me; he was right, but then we learned how Eve works and causual PvP just isn't it :) Anyway that 's how my name came about.

However, that's not the full story. We sort of stumbled upon, er parties, and these parties have dungeons - real ones. Well now I have a couple of leather outfit, a few whips; and quite an audience when I'm whipping my sub (submisive). Needless to say my BDSM name is also Mistress Terrify. Strange how these things work out.

Okay let's see...

I have a great many female friends. I also have a head of very fine, soft hair. Said friends LOVE to play with my hair because "it's the closest we'll ever get to playing with a fuzzy bunny!" (we all live in apartments). A few years ago, I got tired of being called "Fuzzy" so I grew my head hair out. Now it is a beautiful "mane of silky fluffiness" (their words, not mine) so I am currently known as "Fluffy."
"Fluffers" is just a branch out from that.

The prefix to my name came about from the serious thought process of "ooooo... it sounds cooler that way." I speak a bit of Persian/Farsi (thanks Dad) and "King" translates to "Shah."

So I am thus, the King of Fluffiness!!

Man, I am NEVER flying with you.......

I can see local now.... here comes "fluffy". Not "d3ath" or "crazee" or"wildjoker"...... "fluffy" Big smile

Psst... Where do ya live? Blink



I HAVE flown with this guy....and lemme tell you. This explains oh so much. :)

Because I spent far too many nights of my youth in nightclubs chasing the lasers.

Not that I'd have gone with this if I had realised I was going to sign up after the trial. Alt is something much more sensible.
