Default Re: What is the etymology of your moniker?

My name stems from the old SE Universe Ladder roleplay community back in the days of SE3. I used the same name from there on these forums to maintain ease of recognition. Everybody in those days on the SE Ladder used a full title as their nick name (such as Master Belisarius). It is not meant as some silly ego padder or anything... Imperator Fyron was the leader of the Kazharii Imperium (which was more of a democracy than an empire, but the names sound so much better ). It is pronounced (non-phonetically) "fie- run." If you pronounce it "fie- ron" where "ron" is as in "Ronald" (with a phonetic "o" sound), the mighty legions of the Imperium will strike you down. Or something... yeah...

You can learn more about the Kazharii Imperium from it's very own web site: http://kazharii.spaceempires.net/. Please note that due to the SE Ladder being dead and all, I never went and made the site cross-browser compatible. The border images look funky in non-IE browsers... Also, some text areas are not aligned properly (mostly not centered where they should be). Oh, and I am especially proud of the ISN logo, which was painstakingly hand-pixeled. As were my SE3 shipsets.
