Long, long ago, in the days of misty yore, there was a boy named Nathan. This boy played a game, a game known as (music swells) GEMSTONE III. Gemstone (GS) was a MUD, and Nathan's ability to hunt-and-peck at 60 WPM grew. Nathan played many characters in the world of GS, most of whom were named Jaltir, and most of whom were wizards. In these times long past, Nathan's AOL (yes, AOL) screen name was Big Red 100, for Nathan is a towering redhead, and was called by that name by friend and foe alike. Some months after taking up adventuring in Gemstone, Nathan changed his screen name to Jaltir, and he saw that it was good. When Nathan finally got a real ISP with his cable modem (and said the holy w00t), the time had long passed for a change. Nathan had recently watched "Grumpy Old Men", in which Walter Matthau is called by Jack Lemmon a "lothario." Nathan was intrigued by this word, and looked it up, yea, and discovered that its meaning was "a successful womanizer" or "a seducer of women". Nathan's ability to spell and construct meaningful English sentences had won him much success with the women of AOL, and with a surge of hubris, Nathan took the name "Lothario". But alas, Nathan discovered that the chosen name was taken! Disdaining to append numbers, Nathan thought of variations on the chosen name. Soon, "Mr. Lothario" was decided upon, and it was not taken, and so Nathan took it. And he saw that it was good.
I hereby vow never to speak of myself in the third person again.
