As a kid, I felt Pokemon was becoming too large As the third generation of Pokemon came around I grew more into yu-gi-oh The card game was much more fun and interesting then the Pokemon card game. I continued to play both, but when it came down to the cartoon, I religiously watched yugioh Thusly, Yami is what I took from it. As a darker more complex version of what already exists Then in my teens I stumbled across homestatrunner.com A college humor site ran by a couple people, that made hilarious flash videos and mini games. One of the lead charters is named strongbad Strongbad was a wrestler and a did many things One day he received fanmail (which he responded to periodically) Asking how to draw a dragon Well, all the funny interesting stuff aside (seriously go check it out) He created TROGDOR Who was half man, half dragon, all badass So the very first game I applied this to was Runescape (before ps3 and Xbox 360 even existed) Yami_trogdor And I've used it on every game and system I've owned ever since Deft stuck with me
