I feel so unoriginal when I tell the story, but its Luffy from One Piece with an 'A' added to it, because that's how they pronounced his name in the (awful) 4Kids dub.

But I've had this nick for so many years now, the added 'A' has become very attached to me, and it feels a lot more original, at least to me anyway. I love my little 'A'. We go on so many adventures together.

When I first joined the Internet many years ago, I went by many names while playing Counter-Strike and Team Fortress Classic (King Norway, Killing Fox, other lame things...). However, my most used nick was simply Electron.

After a good while of this I decided to change things up (mostly because Electron is fairly unoriginal). I removed the first half and changed a vowel, and presto!

I also go by TrenWolfman on some places. The Wolfman part simply refers to my furry leanings.

My Youtube channel name, TrenArvis, is a weird one. I chose Arvis because it sounded like a good name for a vampire-killing British butler. Yeah... kinda wish I could change it into TrenWolfman, really.

Well, the Red Clover didn't really come from a comic...rather looking at playing cards.

My favorite suit was the clover and I always wanted it to be red, because it would look a little interesting that way. When it came to my username on TGH, I wanted to make a different name. Since The Red Clover sounds a lot like a comic book character's name and this is The Game Heroes, I went with it.

I am a Jedi.

My real name is Mike.

Everyone knows what 42 is.

I settled on this after 'BBallWizard42' eleven years ago. I think this is an improvement.

I play a lot of D&D and other tabletop RPGs. I used to call myself Shadowman and similar names growing up. After I took modern dance in high school and discovered the shadowdancer prestige class is 3rd edition, it was my handle from then forth. MOS (military occupational specialty) 21B is combat engineer, which is what I did for 6 years in the US Army Reserve. It's pronounced "twentyone bravo" or "Two-one Bravo" by the way.
:yuush:
