There have been a couple of threads along these lines, but what the hell. Mine comes from a mistake - it was supposed to be cultofsteel - but the buddy of mine who set it up originally only heard steelcult (I was working metal in the forge at the time) so thats how it came about.

Quantum Link = AOL

Back in the mid-eighties, I used a service for my Commadore Computer called Quantum Link. I had a nick there of \"Cerridwyn\".

I was on it about a year and quit.

Quantum Link became AOL. Many years later, I went back to having service on AOL, and tried to use my original nick. Of course, it wasn\'t available, and I hated to be Cerridwynxxx when I\'d been the first one to use the nick.

So I went for \"Cerridwyn1st\", because I was the first Cerridwyn. When I came to CMON, I just used the same nick.

Ironically

A character I used to pop into a campaign to act as a foil/guide or whatever when I was a DM (AD&D).He was based on me in physical appearence and by being a general smart arse.
However 20yrs on i could say the ever increasing mutant white follicles in my beard.

Duende

New member
Here\'s my origin:

My name come form an album called \"Karma\" by Delerium. \"Duende\" is the second track on it and it really caught my attention because at first it sound like a very pretty song, but as you listen, the lyrics are dark and twisted.
Here\'s a sample:

\"Bleak desolation, in a beam of sun,
Like an angel you\'ll come, in a dream blessed one,
Make me joyfully numb,
Razor fingers cling, Piercing demons sing,
Twisting hollow hell, Burning blisters swell,
Sharp-cut aching breath, Choking scent of death,
Gruelling jaw-bone grind, Cursed by my own mind...\"

I was intrigued by this unusual song so I looked up \"duende\" in a online Spanish to English and found this definition:

duende[Noun]:
daemon

duende, trasgo:
goblin

de duende, de elfo, mágico:
elfin

duende, trasgo, hada:
sprite

duende[Noun] :
elf

In another dictionary site, I also got \"ghost\" as well. All in all, I thought it was a good name to use here.


And as a P.S. - the song was written and sung by Camille Henderson who was the main backup singer on Sarah McLachlan\'s earlier albums.

Sometimes the obvious stuff just jumps out and pops me in the nose!!

I have seen your real name, either on the forums or on your website, but never put two and two together to realize that was ALSO your user name.

I had visions that you also painted FINGERNAILS with elaborate designs in your elegant painting style...Thus NAILPAINTER....

wow, i am getting incredibly dense in my older age....
