It all started with a character called Lancaster…

Lancaster was an average Joe who one day stumbles upon a time-traveling clock, which he proceeds to put on his Afro.

As time went on, the Afro turned into a red helmet. He became a time cop known as Jake Johannes. (Pronounced Jo-han-as, not Yo-hans.)

Finally, the Time Cop concept was dropped. The clock on his head was removed, and the focus started shifting from a humorous protagonist to a cutesy sidekick. The modern Jake was born.

The reason why I'm referred to as Intergalactic Joe and not Intergalactic Jake comes from a blog I once had. At one point, a character that stemmed off of the Time Cop design used the name Jake Johannes as well. When I decided to use the newer Jake design on a separate character, I had to change his name so it wouldn't seem like a repeat. He was therefore known as Joe for a period of time.

Lichs from the warcraft series generally use frost magic accompanied with their necromancy magic. Also, was thinking of 7/11 frosties and ice cream while thinking up the name so, voilà.

"Necro-" is a greek prefix for death, but it also means "Necronomicon", creation of Abdul Alhazred AKA Mad Arab from the Cthulhu Mythos.

"-magen" refers to "Primagen", the final boss of Turok 2.

"-vion" refers to "Oblivion", the not-so final boss of Turok 3.

When Bob was born his mother said to her husband "Holy crap! He looks just like a Bob!", to which Bob's father replied "It's definitely a Bob".

The rest is history.

The Soldier is well known for his spectacular rocket jump. In defiance of all good sense and judgment, the Soldier can detonate a rocket at his feet and launch himself skyward at the cost of some health. This ability allows the Soldier to pop up in unexpected places and reach areas off-limits even to the Scout's double jump."

I got my name from my profile picture from this http://www.cracked.com/article_15725_the-10-steps-to-porn-addiction-where-are-you.html (click on link inside the link, you'll see)

Ashbo=Ashlee and Beau. I made a youtube profile for me and my niece six years ago and still can't come up with a better name. This is the reason why I made those name change threads years ago.

My first name is "Henry". I have a (kinda, sorta, from a certain point of view) Russian background. Russians for some reason can't pronounce the English "h" sound and approximate it to "g", even though they have a different sound that's probably much closer: "kh".

I added the "Sir" to sound fancy.

In other words, there is no "official" point to my name. It just happened out of my interests.
EDIT: Yes I know that's not my username right now goddamnit

Originally, I was known as Frost, which is a shortened version of the usual username I use, Frostsamurai. However, due to recent events involving a copy-and-pasted Kingdom Hearts article that was eventually Deadpooled, Gaben decided to start calling me OP. As such, I added Disgrace towards the end since there are other people with OP usernames on this site as well, and Disgrace is what really describes me right now.
