Locclo is a major character from the fiction that I write. In my stories, he's the supreme ruler of the angelic kingdom of Reokei (Not at all religious). I was trying to think of a name one day, and I had just written the chapter that he is introduced in, so...the name kinda stuck. I also go by Captain Blackblade on other forums, which is the name of a major Magic: the Gathering character. I just added the 'captain' because I thought it sounded cooler.

Newport, S Wales

Mine is the first name from the half-elf gambler I had to make to replace my first one (the reason for replacement was I played a lizardman called quetzacoatl and the mods decided nobody was allowed a real-life name for thier char) when I played the play-by-post RPG The Allerian Empire (however left after a few months as the pomposity was over-whelming!), the zero is there because I like the number, and the underscore is just because...

Stuck with the handle because I needed an email address and grabbed that as my real name (richard jones) is too common and therefore taken, and its stuck with me ever since

Because we’re here,lad...

It's a few things that made up my name. I love 'Blackadder goes forth'....When General Melchett came out with the 'I wouldn't lick a German if he was glazed in honey'line.
And CoD 3 nailed it for me,when the SAS team infiltrated Northern France, and the OC came out with the words:
'.... And then we'll give Jerry a damned good kicking'
And the Scottish Corporal said,
'Aye Sir, I can't wait to bash the bosh'



'....and we'll give those frenchies a damn good licking'
'It's the germans Sir'
'WHAT'
'Its the germans we should be licking Sir'
'DON'T BE REVOLTING DARLING, I wouldn't lick a german if he was glazed in honey!'
