What's your pic/avatar supposed to be?

Post by KeeperUTX »

Hey, it's me. Again. This time, I'm interested in what your avatar actually means. You know, tell us what it is.

Well, I'll simply desc the three I've got my currently most active sites:

UT99.org - Raziel's symbol from the Legacy of Kain series that I recently finished up. Raziel was Kain's lieutenant, but Kain, in a 'supposed' act of jealousy, ripped the bones out of his wings when Raziel evolved, and ordered him to be thrown into the lake of the dead. Raziel endured 1000 years of suffering for his 'transgression', and gained an unswaying hatred for the hyprocracy that damned him. He was revived by the Elder God, and that's where the events of Soul Reaver 1 begin...

Oldunreal - Kain's symbol from LoK. Kain became vampiric because of his murder. Mortanius, guardian of the Pillar of Death, offered him retribution, and he jumped at this opportunity like a starved, deranged dog. He awakens as vampire, an unlife, if you will, and that's where Blood Omen : Legacy of Kain's events start off. Kain rises to full control over Nosgoth after 500 years. That's when he gains his symbol.

World of Gothic - Magician of Fire, though I'll change it to one wearing two swords and sitting on an orc throne.

Otherwise, Gothic, LoK and a few other series have inspired me to start writng my own stories (link in my signature.)

Mine here is from Divinty II: Ego Draconis (2009). This is the scene where the player is about to turn into a dragon.
Another one of mine is from Drakan: order of the flame (1999), where the player rides a dragon.
Those are the 2 dragon games that I love, because you can fly as a dragon in there and toast your enemies ^^.

Hmm, well mine is a dude with a regular katana in one hand and a flaming katana in the other, wears no shoes and seems to like green-bluish clothes, and has a black dragon on his back....
as for it's overall meaning, well I don't have one exactly, it's mostly an image related to the actual nick "Ferali dragon" and nothing more than that, I just set it up ever since I joined the community and stayed that way until now, and I use it everywhere I register as "Feralidragon", and I don't intend to change it anytime soon.

But feel free to be imaginative about its meaning lol

First I had an Unreal Titan, then the Unreal Dragon as avatar. I was so addicted to Titans when I started mapping/investigating Unreal :ironic:
My current avatar is from Tenjo Tenge, my favorite Manga series. I don't really identify with Soichiro, who is displayed here, but I just liked the fierce look and the sparkling spells.

1) My handle is EvilGrins, after all.

2) :loool: :ironic:
I used to make mood themes on livejournal so I had a version of these guys that wasn't here.

3) All of which may be a moot point, as I tend to change my AVI every few months to a year.

4) I've always had a thing for smilies, especially the evil ones.

My current avatar, is Krieg as he is the closest Unreal character to what I actually look like. I setup the pic in UEd to show me relaxing with a drink between matches. (gotta do a whole bar-scene).

My usual Unreal avatar is my UT version of my Dr.Flay™ logo
It was made as the cover-art for my horror mashup (the track playing on my Unreal site).
It represents my sense of fun, and my creative side, my interests and influences.

Its a nice mix of Comedian's batch of Watchmen and the cover picture of the album "Dark Side of the Moon" of Pink Floyd. :D
