It was a cold winternight in 1972 (sorry, always wanted to start like this).. Nah.
So anyway, here goes:
The Name
Lex Mortis is Latin. Lex means Law and Mortis means death. This results in either "Law or Death" or "Deathlaw".
If someone in real life shouts "Lex" I will respond to that.
The Reason
Why pick something dark and evil like that you ask?
First of all, this is all online.. online names tend to be "evil" to induce fear or atleast demand some form of respect from others. Getting killed in some FPS by someone called "Fluffy Bunny" will hardly have any effect, while an evil name will atleast have some sort of all.. all Psychological Warfare.
Secondly, I have evil tendencies aswell. My humour and wits tend to be evil/nasty and recently I've acquired "Gadget/Microcontrollers/Robotics for the Evil Genius" books. Of course my first (and current) project is a weapon. Actually, anything on my "todo list" from the books are weapons or atleast offensive in some way.
The Time
I've had this nickname for quite a while now.. I'm guessing 6+ years. I use it everywhere and for anything.. not just UTA.
I think thats about it...
ps. I should have named the groups like "The Man - The Legend"
