[QUOTE="Bloodsparrow, post: 1642429, member: 12554"] I usually try to have some meaning in the names I select for my characters... Sometimes the meaning is purely personal, sometimes not. For instance, in a game that just started recently, I somehow got talked into playing a Barbarian... But I'm playing an Elf Barbarian. Now, I usually start with a name and build a character from there, but in this case I made the character before I had a name... Or even a concept for this character other then "Elf Barbarian". In the end, I take my inspiration for this character from three places... - A little bit from the "Grugach" tribe of wood elves in the Standing Stones module. - A little bit from the character "Zula" in "Conan the Destroyer". - And a whole heck of a lot from the character of "Gaz", the sister in Jonan Vasquez's sadly short lived cartoon "Invader Zim" on Nickelodeon. Gaz, I think, is the perfect example of what elfin rage would be like... Slit-eyed and smarmy for the most part, and angry pretty much all the time, but goes from smoldering to white hot in point-zero-five seconds. Drink the last soda and [i]you will pay[/i]... And thus, I am "Gaz of the Grugach". [/QUOTE]
