Well actually it is Gott = god. You`re dead on with grabmal though
If you meant to translate "god`s tomb" it would have been Gottes Grabmal. A weird name if ever there was one...
A real swiss/old german forename is Gotthard BTW (the german form of Goddard or Godehard). It means divinely firm, quite fitting for a cavalier type.

My other nick (on Wotc,Dicefreak and realmsofevil) is Thanael, also the name a PC of mine. I havn't found out yet if there is a hebrew translation for it, it`s a fantasy name i created but obviously based on Nathaniel/-ael.

Oh, I was sure I took "gotten" from a dictionary Well it seems I changed something to alter its pronunciation...

(Well, it was a long time ago ...)

It's Biblical.

No excuse! Kneel and beg forgiveness, immediately!

Or don't. I don't really care.

he only begs to Drusilla, and then only if she is holding anything she could deal damage with... Which reminds me, we need new furniture in this place.

Trevorfrost (more properly Trevor Frost) is the name of one of my first and most longest lasting Role Playing characters, a half-betazed medical officer for a Star Trek game... Unfortunatly real life politics somehow managed to get my character killed in game, but I still have a great fondness for him...

Greywolf comes from my love of wolves and has been my nickname, which was given to me by my friends for over 10 years. oddly, I never have used that name for a character, I always thought it would be too cheesy. Like many of you I thought about using my first characters name which was Sigurd the barbarain from 2nd edition D&D, lot of great times with that one.

Cole Deschain is my longest-lasting and favorite PC of all time- created right around the time Domains of Dread came out.

When I actually used him in pen and paper RPGs, he almost always got lucky rolls- he outlived every other PC in the four campaigns he was involved in, had ludicrously good stats, and had the signal honor of killing the Whistling Fiend in "The Heart's Final Beat" when our group ran it... and all because he got disarmed and stabbed at the demon with the only weapon he had handy.

So I used him, both in the "Halfling Walks" series at the Goat (plug plug!) and the Galen Saga (where I killed him off because he was sorta confusing)

The surname, of course, if from Stephen King's Dark Tower series, the last name of the Last Gunslinger, Roland Deschain.

Cole I sorta picked at random because it sounded good with Deschain.

Kelliack is the name of an NPC in the Ravenloft campaign I ran. He was a cholarly wizard, whose personal interest lie in mapping out and recording, in texts, the various demi-planes within the ethereal. Ravenloft was his lst stop, he had already investigated the Dem-planes of Imprisonment, Time, Electro-Magnatisim and Shadow. Unfortunitly once he got into Ravenloft, he couldn't figure out how to leave it.

I picked his name because I really enjoyed running him.

'Charlatan' was my favorite kit from the orinial MotRD. I use it most of the other boards I'm a member of, though recently I've begun varying my handle.

Trebor Minntt was a charcter i invented as an Planescape NPC some 10 years ago and it stuck as a favourite. The name comes from a brand of mints in Britain known as Trebor Mints and I adapted the name whe i began using it online so as not to get accused of copyright when trying to get published on ps3e.com.

As for reading this, I feel old because I remeber people like Wiccy being called The Lost Wiccan, was that really 6 years ago?
