This alias came in because I wanted to have higher anonymity, I use the name more commonly now and it has lost that effect. Using either this alias or my more common alias (common enough I answer to it irl) almost anyone can find my real name.
My more common alias is Mazinaru, it was a character I designed back in high school on a storywriting forum. I got very attached to the character and used his template in several sessions, eventually he became me in personality and hencefourth I was known as Mazi.
Being a D&D player I have many other aliases I've used but, Demonaura and Mazinaru are the primary ones.
Other fun ones..

Now THAT is a story.  Roses are my favorite things to grow, so I wanted to ask. Your story's way better.

attitude, a little arrogance, a little moxie. it can be good or bad. a certain amount of sass and swagger.

It's not that I suddenly got religion, I just figure that " I'm sure being broke is what's putting the real damper on having fun right now." Deserves an 'Amen!'

Several years ago some friends and I watched Ghost Dog the only thing I actually remember from the movie (aside from it being quite terrible) was a restaurant called "A #1 Restaurant" (I think) After the movie my one friend commented that I needed a "rapper name", my first name being clint he decided cdog. He kept calling me that, I think just because I thought it was so stupid. Since they didn't have a nickname for me before that it just stuck. So thanks for reminding me of that stupid movie.

thesummerqueen, feel free to pm me next time, I'm a fairly open book and if you ever wonder the who, how, what and why of me just ask. As long as it's not criminally prosecuatable then I's have no problems sharing.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Downbeatplum was my sons randomly assigned Xbox live name.
I found the idea of a depressed soft fruit amusing so adopted it as my own.
The b at the end was a typo I'm too lazy to remove.
