    (Destiny I love your avatar hnnng)

    Well, back when, I was a pretty big weeaboo and I liked this weeaboo name.
    I like chibi art, and chan is always cute and friendly.

    My old username sounded too similar to someone who was always active on PC, so I had to change it to avoid confusion.

    I was making a Gaia accound one day and I was making an avatar that was all dark and sinister, so I first used "The Dark Hero". Then just for the hell of it I looked it up in italian (IlHeroeScuro) and then in spanish (ElHeroeOscuro) and it just stuck :)

    I have a character named Sol, whose full name is Solyss. I tried to make that my username on deviantART, but alas, it was taken. So a friend suggested I used "Sollace", basically pronounced the same. Then Sollace Lux became the name of my persona, so therefore I started using it for everything.

    Exciting, I know.

    From listening to "Forever" and the fact that Eternity was taken, I think, so I did the next best thing.

    ^ this is a helix. It is a three-dimensional spiral, basically.
    And if you think that's not cool, watch Gurren Lagann to get just how cool a three-dimensional spiral can be. Fool. shot'd

    "Shookie" is a nickname I got from Chemistry in high school. My lab partners found a piece of tape that said "Shookie Thompson" on it, stuck it on me, and they've called me Shookie ever since.

    I didn't D:

    A friend came up with it. It originates from the fact I have a lime fetish, and take regular baths in lime juice and also from my huge crush on Jackie Chan (What a man) ^^

    He kicked Magnus Scheving in the face (on film :D) You has no shame!

    I'm a french-canadian and, one day, I was looking up the dictionnary to find the ugliest french words ever. Then I decided to do the inverse.
    FLAMBOYANT came up and it was love at first sight, haha. (Along with Romanesque, but I chose Flamboyant instead.)

    Long story short, it's from Talim's weapon in Soul Calibur III, called the "Syi Sarika and Loka Luha." I just changed the spelling and voila~

    Book by Roger MacBride in the style of Isaac Asimov; Caliban was a robot with no behavioral inhibitions. That in turn was a shout-out to Shakespeare's Caliban in The Tempest.
    Which is why people keep asking me why I chose a monster as my username. XD

    So a couple of years ago I joined this site, see. My best friend had invited me, and was helping me get an E-mail so I could sign up (I was such a n00b. XD). My favorite color is Green, and I have always been fascinated by the CSS codes some people on the site used to make their posts awesome, and in my childhood I had often played games where the "spies" had to use secret codes to enter the locked room. In my head, Code Green meant that the secret code was "green". The name was unfortunately taken...then my friend came up with making "Code_Green". It now looked like something typed as a code.

    Later, I changed my name to plain old "Code". Cause it was more awesome.

    Well, this is probably a really lame reason. But long, long, ago when I was oh say 11, I had first discovered the wonders of the internet and forums. I ended up on a proboards forum for BeyBlade and one of the Admin's name was Gold, so me, being that I wanted to imitate him, I took on the name as Silver. And this has followed me throughout my all of my online identities, with some variations (Silvaer, Silvaeri, Silvaerious) It even followed me to the original Pokecommunity, and now to the 2nd iteration of the PC. =)

    It was Gamer691, just a name I picked one day for a email address (it was vidgamer691 but I changed that when I got gmail). Then I decided numbers = noob so I dropped them. I put the "." in front of Gamer so that I am closer to the top of the "Who's online" box, yeah I have a big ego.
