Where did your Username come from? Why'd you choose it? What does it mean if anything? How did it come to your mind? Was it your first choice or have you changed it over time? I'm just curious as to how some of these names came to be and such.

Osi is the shortened version of my full and most known forum name Osiris...it started out as a pet name by a few spam mods but was later adopted by the general population.

I chose the name Milenko as "The Great Milenko" is a necromancer and master of illusions, who tempts people into following a path of hedonism and evil for material comforts. Plus I liked the name

Hensenshi is Japanese. Senshi means soldier, and Hen means strange(hence my title is Strange Soldier). Technically it should be Senshihen but I think that Hensenshi sounds better, don't you?

I don't exactly remember why I came up with mine. Probably just a spur of the moment mutilation of the Enigma word

I wanted a god's name, but Zeus and all them were taken, so I googled ancient gods and i found Eros. Later i discovered Eros was the god of love.. wops
Then when I came back, I was under disquize for a little bit so I could outgrow my old enemies in secrecy, but yet I still wanted to give an ironic clue to whom I was, so I chose Eros backwards, Sore
Then when I reveleated myself and found out someone took it and went in vacation mode.. I got stuck with Sore..

Chinese Mythology
2:What does it mean if anything?
Ruled by Yanluo Wang, the King of Hell, Diyu (Chinese HELL, also the name of my Mothership) is a maze of 18 underground levels and chambers where souls are taken to atone for their earthly sins.
The 18 chambers of hell

6: Chamber of Dismemberment by Sawing – Kidnappers and people who force good women into prostitution suffer the fate of being sawn in this chamber.
7: Chamber of Dismemberment by Chariot – Corrupt officials and landlords who oppress and exploit the people are dismembered by a chariot in this chamber.
8: Chamber of Mountain of Knives – People who cheat customers by earning more than they should, profiteers who jack up prices and cheat on the quality of goods are made to shed blood by climbing the mountain of knives.
9: Chamber of Tongue Ripping – Gossips who stir trouble and liars suffer the fate of having their tongues ripped out in this chamber.
10: Chamber of Pounding – Cold-blooded murderers are pounded in this chamber.
11: Chamber of Torso-severing – Scheming and ungrateful men have their torsos severed in this chamber.
12: Chamber of Scales – Crooks who oppress the innocent, people who cheat on the quality of goods and daughters-in-law who ill-treat their in-laws have hooks pierced into their body and hung upside down.
13: Chamber of Eye-gouging – Peeping toms who go around peeking and leering have their eyeballs gouged out in this chamber.
14: Chamber of Heart-digging – People with evil hearts have theirs dug out in this chamber.

17: Chamber of Maggots – Crooks who use loopholes in the law to cheat and engage in malpractice are being eaten alive by maggots in this chamber.
18: Chamber of Avici – Crooks who have committed heinous crimes, brought misery to the people and betrayed the ruler are placed on a platform above an inferno. The unlucky ones fall off the platform into the inferno and burn while the lucky ones remain on the platform. These spirits are never to be reincarnated.
3:: Why'd you choose it? because i like the sound of it
4: How did it come to your mind? Yen-lo-Wang is the name of Kai Allard-Liao's battlemech - a specially altered Centurion - in the Battletech universe.
5: Was it your first choice or have you changed it over time? my first choice was Replacement Killers from the movie, when i first ascended i had problems with the name being to long to log onto the ascended server , and later on when i Joined Pi i decided to shorten my ingame name to YANLUO WANG
