I changed my name on an old forum to demonstrate how flacid and superficial were. Kept it for here because I couldn't be arsed making a new one and occassionally saw the same results without ever intending to.

Well, I was a big fan of The Ring, which is where Sadako comes from
And way back when I used Gaia a lot, this one friend of mine used to call me moose as a nick name.
It just kind of stuck, and I've used it for my user name on most forum based sites since.

My name comes from a struggle from within, conquering crushing depression and coming out the other side. By this I mean that this was the name of my first D&D character. The half red dragon half drow that kicked everyones asses.

The d is a surname that is actually not pronounced (so its not da-kyros its just kyros). The surname is a mysterious word that starts with d. Kyros was a mix between my real name and the word zero. (10 virtual dollars to the first person to guess my real name).
Sorry if its already been guessed couldn't be bothered reading, but I'm going with Krys. Weird spelling but only thing I could think of : (

All the major character names in all my favourite books were already taken when I was setting up my first email account (ever) so I decided to pick one of the minor characters. Hence Cargin, as in Captain Letro Cargin of the Vervun Primary (see Dan Abnett's Necropolis). It is my online handle for pretty much everything.

I was in a band called the 'deck of many things' where we all had names like '____ something' mine was Ace Something.
That is one of the highest nerd point acquisitions in a single sentence I've ever seen. And I'm not making fun of you. Well done, sir.

I usually go by Maladjester but apparently I signed up to Escapist a looooong time ago and just can't remember because that name is taken. Can't remember my old password or email addy. Maladjester comes from being a maladjust and having a cynically barbed wit.

Johnny Impact is the name of a superhero I created a long time ago. He was in my head for a while before being played on City of Heroes, then again on Champions. He also appeared as an NPC in a superhero dice-and-paper I ran for some friends.
