It used to be Morpheus, the lead character of my favourite piece of fiction (the Sandman, by Neil Gaiman), and second favourite fictional character period (second to Death, from the same series), but I ended up changing it to my Death Korps Quartermaster, my favourite model in my collection.

I have been reading a ridiculously violent manga called Gantz I discovered before youtube locked down on its shows. In one of the translators ads it shows the main character getting owned. It is such a raw display of ownage I had to have it as my avatar as I have one of the largest loss ratios with my DOA army.
I am currently 2 W
8 L
0 T
I would have had 3 wins and a tournament if I had refused to end the game as I thought time was up. So, I think my avatar heavily represents me, getting OWNED.
