My name goes back to when I started playing Magic: the Gathering online. I've always been a fan of reptiles, and Magic happens to have a race of desert-dwelling lizardmen called Viashino, so I came up with Viashino_Water_Mage (no spaces allowed in names), the joke being that not only do Viashino live in the desert, but none of them are mages. So a series of forgotten passwords, verification errors and new accounts later, I ran out of variations of that and ended up with Viashino_wizard. I've used for pretty much every account on anything since, because it's never taken, I like how it sounds, and I love those moments when someone on a new message board says "Hey! Do you play magic? Me too!"
