This is sort of inspired by bloodlines. As a persons genetic
predispositions can say allot, I also wonder what can be determined by the
psychological nitpicking one does to determine their online screen-names.
I'm not thinking of nicknames, or game names, just screen names, like the
ones we are using on this site. Theoretically we are all having one big
conversation, where we all sort of know each other through the cyber ether
by these crazy names we choose to call ourselves. Of course there are those
of us who use real, or almost real names, but for those who have made up
crazy identity-cloaking names, well, why did you pick what you did? Was it
some disturbing childhood experience that made came to mind when you
decided to join Shmeng? Was it the alien abduction you lived through last
year? Was it to much time spent reading obscure philosophy when suddenly,
bang? I want to know. Of course, all information gathered here will be
added the psychological dossier I'm currently working up on all the
members, so help me out folks.
As for Domkitten, it was originally inspired by a character in stories I
use to write, and sort of my own predisposition as a switch….if you don’t
know what that is I’m not telling you.

ple·o·nasm , n.
1. The use of more words than are required to express an idea; redundancy.
An instance of pleonasm.
2. A superfluous word or phrase.
Redundancy of language in speaking or writing; the use of more words than
are necessary to express the idea; as, "I saw it with my own eyes."
or "at this moment in time" instead of just saying "now"
I tend to ramble....

Mines rather obvious. I hate using my name for most net shit as its an
unusual name to begin with, and is spelled even more oddly (Arlyne, if any
one cared to know). After I'd gotten out of detention, someone I knew
online had to ask how many kittens I'd killed while in there ("Every time
you masturbate, god kills a kitten") And started callin me that. I didnt
like it with the 'e' so changed it to a 'y' and the name got transferred
into my day to day life by some means or another. It actually describes me
quite well as I'm an overly affectionate little freak who is either all
over you or pretending you dont exist whom you can quite commonly find
curled up somewhere staring at people and whom purrs when petted just right
>.> And with very few changes can be made into a 'fuck me' name when the
occasion calls for it. Anyhow...*shuts up*

| I once played a video game by the name of Vangaurd Bandits and there was a
character in it who I liked named Alugard. Later, I had a roleplayng
character who needed to take an alias and, liking the name Alugard, took it
for my character's alias, but misremembered the spelling of it and it came
out Alugarde. I found I liked the extra "e" and kept it. Later, a friend of
mine was looking up root words and it seems the roots "Alu" and "gar"
together form a word meaning something along the lines of "to call or cry
out for magic", which is one of the two things I have always sought. The
name describes that portion of me faiirly well and I never even knew it.
The name frickin found me. Go figure. ____________________

whole darkside of life. Angel of Death is a very good mixture of both good
and evil. Angel (good) death (bad) plus i also have a slight obession with
the angel of death, she is actually real you know. ____________________

My name is, for those of you who have not already worked it out, a
reference to my favorite passage of the Bible. I appreciate thatsome of you
may not have a copy of the Bible at hand, so let me elaborate:
The Book Of Revelations;
Chapter 9, The Bottomless Pit;
And The Fifth angel sounded, and I saw a
star fall from heaven unto the earth:
and to him was given the key of the bottom-
less pit.
2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and
there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the
smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and
the air were darkened by reason of the
smoke of the pit.
3 And there came out of the smoke locusts
upon the earth: and unto them was given
power, as the scorpions of the earth have
power.
4 And it was commanded them that they
should not hurt the grass of the earth,
neither any green thing, neither any tree;
but only those men which have not the seal
of God in their foreheads.
5 And to them it was given that they should
not kill them, but that they should be
tormented five months: and their torment
was as the torment of a scorpion, when he
striketh a man.
6 And in those days shall men seek death,
ans shall not find it; and shall desire to die,
and death shall flee from them.
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like
unto horses prepared unto battle; and on
their heads were as it were crowns of gold,
and their faces were as the faces of men.
8 And they had hair as the hair of women,
and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
9 And they had breastplates, as it were
breastplates of iron; and the sound of their
wings was as the sound of chariots of many
horses running to battle.
10 And they had tails like unto scorpions,
and there were stings in their tails: and thier
power was to hurt men five months.
11 And they had a king over them, which is
the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name
in the Hebrew tongue is Abbadon, but in
the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. ____________________

I normally Use Camille66 which is basically my name only in french. But for
this website I used Lestat which I used to use alot when I was 15 or 16
years old. It's not really an original name that's quite true but I
basically use it for personal choices. It's a character with which I really
identified myself when I read the books, and during that time it was quite
a dark time so my only company was that character. I came to be quite fond
of that character and everything it represents. That's why I chose this
name. ____________________

call him "JEEZ-OSH" because he looks like Jesus and his name is Josh.  ____________________

gm: Er sprichst keinen Deutsch.
Everyone else: I mentioned this somewhere already. My name is based upon
an ancient Greek insult. A monolycus was a particularly rapacious wolf who
travelled alone and preyed upon humans. Demosthenes called Alexander the
Monolycus of the North. Deal with it.
