Well, I didn't want to take my name from the LOTR, since it was somehow too obvious, so I took my name from the wonderful book "The Last Unicorn" by Peter S. Beagle (anyone read it?).Schmendrick is a wonderful character, a wizard, whose magic never obeys him and so he's "doomed" to immortality (wandering around the world, "eternally inefficient", as it says in the book), until he learns to use his magic right(or until he learns that the magic uses him, not the other way around)...and of course, in the end, he then becomes a powerful magician and - a mortal. I feel like he's my alter ego, for some reason... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
