My avatar is the flag of Morocco because it's my NS main's flag because it represents the Greater Middle East which I thought I could rule better than anyone.
Mine is now Brian McBride. He got elbowed by some spineless cunt of an Italian player and it opened up a wound that required 3 stitches. He finished the game.
My avatar is my own drawing of a character named "Shaudawn." I am a writer, and I came up with this 'sage' character in a story. I liked the name so much, it has become a favorite, mostly because Shaudawn is not the typical white-bearded wizard (no offense, Lazy Wizard).
