I use my name (Manveru) for very long time (1997 ?!, something like that) - indeed it is translated to Quenya (High elves language in LoTR) my real name - Michael.

Also my name fits very good to the BG story :
From hebrew Michael means rhetoric question - "Who is as the God ?"

My handle goes all the waaayyyyyyyy back. First it's The Legend of Capt. Kidd, second when I played Wing Commander and their clones in those old days those wingman sometimes called "Kid" toward the player. Why the last D being written capital letter ? That can be translated as Dragon or Dragoon - Which I used mostly on my MechWarrior days. The number 01 comes in after the first char get killed when I played WC2 Anyway I kinda like the number so I use it till now

Debatable. Maybe 'Gruntman' would have sounded better- along the lines of 'He-man' 'Spiderman' et al, but probably even more questionable.

Vixen? Cos I'm foxy. And because my BGII character was called it.

Ah, glad to see Vixen is not afraid to atest to my manhood.

Spread the good word my pretty.

"Kid" as a callsign in Wing Commander - hmmm, okay

I know some latin
But i lost the paper i wrote it on

I tend to always pick some form of Vivien. (Have used Nivian on EQ), Vivienne, Vivyenne, many spellings. It's welsh, and it's the lady of the lake. She's one of my favorite arthurian characters

There is also some though that Nivian and Nimue are actually the same person, and well, who wouldn't want to be Merlin's girl?

The funny thing is that I started liking her when I watched Monty Python's search for the holy grail:

Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king!
Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dennis: Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dennis: Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dennis: Help! Help! I'm being repressed! Come see the violence inherent in the system! Violence inherent in the system!

ROFLMAO

I missed most of the Monty Python films

Missed them how?

I miss them when I don't watch them too

I am always doing something else when they show them

Aren't all the Monty Python flicks available on video?
I have to admit, irreverant that I am, my favourite scene was the crucifiction in The Life of Brian (I think that's where it was anyway, it's been a while....)

As in 'in the audience, but doing something else', or actually busy elsewhere?

You should see them, well at least in my humble opinion

Agreed - one should not miss the Monthy Phyton movies

jenna is character from a pnp game. she was the first bard i've ever played. jenna is a loremaster, a bard kit that specialize in storytelling and magic. the kit lets a bard cast magic one level higher than the rest of the bard kits. after playing her for two years, well...

My name... well... it isn't that hard to figure out.
