We need to have another avatar theme day like Princess Bride Day!

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

Weird, some of your avatars change depending on theme... I had to flip to malazan empire to see what you were talking about! (Ip mobile doesn't show much.. maybe they're older ones. D'reks is showing a bit of toast and an egg on mobile)

Yeah, the mobile skin shows the user's profile picture, rather than their forum avatar. It's odd.

It's kinda odd that this forum allows for two pictures in the first place. But in a good way.

They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Because Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark had the darkest art I've ever seen for a children's series. It's like Ralph Steadman snorted some ink, had a bad trip and sneezed all over the paper.

I've had this as my avatar on several forums for nearly (oh god) 20 years.

Macros the Black is an awesome magician.
This is a picture of a shadowy mage.

I think it's times from a character portrait from one of the Baldurs Gate or IWD games

Seemed fitting for my username. Both ill omens and such.

And I'm a witch.

I've had this for so long I can't remember. I assume I picked it around the time I read Paradise Lost, which makes it about twelve years ago.

It was the bet that you had with Dibs. What the bet was about I don't remember. But you lost so you had to have that avatar. Then you just kept it.

I think that you guys had a side bet in a mafia game.

How many fucking people do I have to hammer in order to get that across.

I loved the artwork, even though I hate elves in general and this character in particular. But the interlude art from The Witcher 2 had me almost scratching at the screen in adoration. Also, I like the smirk.

The thing in the middle in the symbol of Pillar of the Mind from the "Legacy of Kain" games.

And I made the background blue, b/c that happened to be my favourite colour.

It's my soletaken form... well, of course, it's only my namesake's soletaken form according to some medieval sources.

What does that have to do with Raymond Luxury Yacht though?

What do you call a fursona when your creature isn't furry?

Pretty sure you have to want to be an animal etc to be a fursona, don't you? It's like an alter ego where you dress up and stuff isn't it? I don't want to be an animal and people pretending to be animals is just weird.

I just want to sleep with sentient dragons is all.

Stop trying to make it seem weird.
