A lot of my favorite characters have capes (or cloaks). Black Panther, Magneto, Doom, Mr. Majestic, Apocalypse, Taskmaster, Batman, Spawn (best cape ever), Martian Manhunter, Threshold, Eradicator, Gladiator, Helspont, and more that I can't recall. Anyone who gets killed because of their cape deserves to die. "LMMFAO!!!! King of Kings says:

Not so much anymore but some of the names are still cool."

o0o. I still watch it. Times change, but what can ya do? "

Wrestling is just too fake to watch anymore. I used to enjoy it, but now it's just too pathetic.

Whether you were talking to me or not, what I said was right. "

Right about what? The whole thing was a joke, like I said you take yourself way to serious. Out of everybody who responded after I posted that only Vegeta and yourself took it serious. Sorry my bad, I thought you could handle a joke, want make the same mistake twice."

Ugh, this is so stupid. You were saying you were so high above us and didn't care about our thoughts (quoting someone who agreed with and quoted me, thus involving me), so I responded (in a non-serious way, though you couldn't tell, i was just going along with it) by poking holes in your statement. You don't care about our thoughts but you read and respond to them? I thought that was funny.

And Kid Apollo! I can't believe I forget Kid Apollo! He's got a cool yellow cloak thing.

But his cloak thing is nowhere near Karate Kid's collar.

i always wanted someone who can have any power and i just thought of copy

I got mine by taking Kenpachi's last name in Bleach for my first name and Ichigo'c first name as my last name.

I created mine several months before I joined the Vine. Octy Freak was telling me of a comic he was making. I told him to add me so he asked me about powers. So I came up with some of what I have now. But then for a name I chose Invisible Man. He didn't really like it and neither did I. So we both just were saying some names and I think I said "Nobody" more as a joke. But we liked it and thats also how we came up with him always being invisible to go along with the theme of his name.

Cool origin man!

Meh. My character's first name is Dante's father's name from DMC (I like Sparda more than Dante), and his last name (Augustus) is from my favourite videogame villain. Pious Augustus, we hardly knew ye.

Well, the Octagon Heroes started when I entered the junior high school of my town, and at lunch, every day, all of my friends sat at the same octagon shaped table. I was always pretty freaky, so I just tacked on Octagon, because Freak is a very common internet user name.

Man, everyone has a good origin but me, lol.

Eh, my was just chance."

And lots of stupidity. Can't forget the stupidity. I'm sure the teenage male hormones had something to do with it.....

Um well I made up my character first, then needed a name. So sketch was a generic drawing word, and -tor is like a superhero/villain suffix you see from time to time. Like as in Skeletor. So, by nuclear fusion I combined the two. By the power of Grayskull!

I feel like I'm reading a bunch of "How famous heroes came to be" passages.

Who know? you might be.

Well, my name comes from Werewolf(-wolf) and then Cryogenics(Cryo-), which studies ice and its affects.

Cryogenics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryogenics

Plus, there's all the different things associated with Cryogenics, but the on I would most asscociate with Cryo is Cryonics, the real-life medical technology of freezing animals and humans to keep them alive longer. It denotes life and heroicness, plus, Cryo is essentially the brainy healer type character.

Cryogenics is simply the study of ice. Cryo is to ice as, say, Pyro is to fire and Hydro is to water.

Looks like we can never change our names again. So sickening.

"Looks like we can never change our names again. So sickening."

What, just so you can't go back to Mega or U-Mos?

I never changed accounts. Only account name. It seems that the whole vine can't change name without change of account.

Dude, you made a new account just so people wouldn't think your Sturm and all the others that were Sturm.

this uber sucks

"Dude, you made a new account just so people wouldn't think your Sturm and all the others that were Sturm."

Not according to scotty/octogon enigma. He was the one who supported me and took me under his wing. Look where I am now. A vine veteran. You on the other hand just keep on downplaying me no matter what I did. I tried to impress you but everything I did failed.

My last name is Fair... So I made my username Raif

Valkaad says:

"Superkitty says:

"A private joke originating from a D & D character."

My name is acutally from my D&D character that I created 20 years ago."

i like your name cause you can write it backwards and it still sounds D&D Daaklav!

Emperor just came to mind , Gonzo because I like the word and what it means and Noir because I like film noir and It's french for black

im a redhead IRL....

quite simple...

My mother gave it to me...so why use another :P

Don't really remember the exact details...
Well, either way I wanted to have another name than "Twilight Man", which was my main account before this one. Didn't really think the name suited the character, so I figured I'd come up with something new.

In my favorite comic franchise, Legion of Super-Heroes, there have been at least two references to "The Wanderer". In all Legion continuities, Mon-El/M'Onel/Valor/Lar Gand (one of my main fave chars in the Legion) has been a kind of universal-traveller-kind of character (that's what I think anyway, don't have all comics he appears in) that's not too unlike what I planned for my own. In post-Zero Hour continuity, M'Onel's name's origin was that when trying to figure out a name, RJ Brande suggested "M'Onel" which would mean "The One Who Wanders" in Martian.
The second "Wanderer" reference in the Legion franchise is the group called "The Wanderers".

Meh, lame origin for my name lol. OH AND! I put the tildes in the name since just "The Wanderer" was already taken! xP
