*shrug*

My nick on this board comes from American Indian mythology -- chosen from Online mythological references after some amount of searching. Might have chosen Tlaloc instead, but I decided to opt for something more obscure...

Most of the nicks I use (one board, one nick) come from either mythology or literature, usually with connotations of mischief, deceit, or sometimes outright evil.

Mine's a newspaper editing catchphrase for when the "lead" of a story (the key summary paragraph, usually right at the top, spelled all funny in newspaper fashion) is dropped down farther into the story than usual, like past the fifth paragraph. A droplede can be a feature (a surprise for the reader) or a bug (when the writing sucks and takes forever to get to the point). Guess which is more common.

Dracus is the leader of the Dragons (Which also is the same a Draco or dracul and can also be a derive from dracula). I have used this name for 9 years now. As for SEIV, it fits for the leader of the Draconian Empire from the constallation Draco.

Mine is from the days I played The One Ring RPG. It was the name of a particularly nasty NPC Gladiator...
