A long long time ago, in a land far far away, I played Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 64. My main was (and still is) Fox. Foxzor was one of many nicknames my buddy had for him, along with Foxolini, and Foxolainen, and Foxzor was the one that stuck. And when I started playing WoW, I threw in 1337 (leet) because Foxzor was taken!

My forum name is just the name of my main character, which I got out of the 3e PHB. Nothing exciting there.
My in-game name, an ominous cow herd, I came up with long ago when I used to follow a news site called Slashdot. If you commented on an article and didn't have an account, it just called you Anonymous Coward. I couldn't think of a good internet name so I came up with An Ominous Cow Herd.

Dontella Kell – French: Dentelle (lace), selected from a friend of mine who was studying french and always called me that.
Created for a tabletop game, this cleric was not expected to live past one session. And given the nature of our Dungeon Master, we gave the character an hour before she died horribly.
Against all odds she lived, and became a legend among our tabletop crew.
When I first went online many.. many years ago, I found a website on the back of one of my 2e books that advertised a site for TSR. So I went. They had ISRP chat/roleplay where you created a character in textform to interact with others.
I went with 'the one who lived' and created Dontella. I had a lot of fun with this crew and met some amazing people. The group of gamers there and in the RPGA (where it was my sanctioned Dungeon Master name), came to recognize that name and it just stuck for good.

Ravens are awesome nasty looking birds which have always been misunderstood, like the version of me at 1.5 een years old. They were thought as carrier of wisdom and magical creatures, also they were part of my hotmail.com address, which, surely, counts for something!
As for the "1210", I was born October 12th, thus 12/10; the fact that the name Raven was taken already, had something to do with the fact that I had to had numbers on it.
Now on a serious(!?) note, Raven was my first character on PnP D&D, who was the chaotic evil sorcerer of a band of evil looking types, he also was the character that finished 100% all nwn campaign. I was very proud of him (and myself) so....yeah.

I am an ogre and work mostly as a spy. That accounts for my recurring absenteeisms when I'm sent on spy missions and stuff and am not able to play online games.

ronjaover was chosen for two reasons.
Ronja the robbers daughter, is a character from the Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. As a child I adored her books. The name Ronja pronounced in English sounds more like run-ya. Most of my characters in the past are fighters types, so it seemed a good idea at the time to add Over Thus the name created was supposed to be Ronja Over. Unfortuneatly NWN1 did not allow me to register like that.
