signatures for the alts because you know it would be cooler

Basically, I was wondering if we should add short signatures to each alt. I think it would be easier to keep the posts apart at times when browsing, not to mention it could be pretty cool.
Anyways, I read a couple of Lovecraft stories again yesterday, and one line which I've always liked jumped out at me.
That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die
You have to admitt that would fit well with Galain or Ruse, no?
O dark, dark, amid the blaze of noon, Irrecoverably dark! total eclipse, Without all hope of day. - or this one by Milton for Rashan
O Conscience, into what abyss of fears And horrors hast thou driven me, out of which I find no way, from deep to deeper plunged. -still Milton - This could me Mockra
What do you think? Would it add something worthwhile, or just clutter up the pages?
So then, if we make a list of some of the alts:
Korvalain
Barghast
D'riss
Emurlahn
Fener
Galain That is not dead which can eternal lie // And with strange aeons even death may die
Gamelon To the mother's regret, was Light granted birth. To her dismay...she saw to late...its corruption. Galayn...you are the unintended victim...to punishment...long overdue.
Hood's Path Cry woe, destruction, ruin, and decay- // The worst is death, and death will have his day
Kaschan
Liosan
Meanas Reality is merely an illusion, although a very persistent one
Mockra O Conscience, into what abyss of fears And horrors hast thou driven me, out of which I find no way, from deep to deeper plunged.
Omtose Ice is like blood, and blood is like ice. There are many ways in. None out.
Ruse
Serc
Shadow You can only come to the morning through the shadows
Telas
Tellan
Tennes
Thyrllan

good idea imo.
I'm not a good source for quotes, though.

I voted I don't care, because I'm not fussed either way. Having a sig will just tempt me to change it to something offensive...

Eh, why not. I like signatures. As long as you aren't allowed to change them during game.

The sigs would be permanent and not something to be changed. I think it's important that the sig, like the avatar stays the same no matter.
Well, as it seems like people like the idea, you're all welcome to come with suggestions. Not too long naturally, as they should take just one or two lines of text I think

Stuff straight from SE would be best, I'd say, seeing how we employ his warrens for alts.

To an extent yes, but if we find lines from other works we think would fit even better, then that works too. I still want to use Lovecraft's for Galain

I am fine with them having sigs, as long as they releate to the name themselves. Warrens or Dragons or whatever.

I'd have to vote yes. Sounds like a plan.
Just re-read GotM Rake vs Galayn Lord, this stuck out:
"To the mother's regret, was Light granted birth. To her dismay...she saw to late...its corruption. Galayn...you are the unintended victim...to punishment...long overdue."
Despite not really liking it that much.
But there are plenty we could use! So I think it's a great idea.

Couple of suggestions for omtose:
"Ice is like blood, and blood is like ice. There are many ways in. None out."
"Ah, I despair, or I would if I cared enough. No, instead, I will make some ashcakes. Which I will not share".
Another option would be to take quotes from games, e.g if omtose says something ace, put it in his sig, and the person behind the alt next to it.
Although perhaps more suited for us mafia players sigs.
