Well, my username is the same as my gamertag, so~ I changed my gamertag to what it is now a few years ago. I've been using the "Crypto" part since I've ever created a xbox profile, around 8 years ago. Crypto stems from the german version of Pokémon Collosseum whereas some Pokémon got "darkened" by evil powers. Those were called "Crypto Pokémon" in german, [url=http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Shadow_Pok%C3%A9mon]"Shadow Pokémon"[/url] in english. Crypto usually means something dark, something secret, or "crypted". It also refers to coding, where I am a bit experienced in. "[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seraph]Seraphim[/url]", also called Seraph (which is even my nickname in real-life), is a type of celestial or heavenly being in Christianity and Judaism. Taken from Wikipedia: [quote]Tradition places seraphs in the highest rank in the Christian angelic hierarchy and in the fifth rank of ten in the Jewish angelic hierarchy. A seminal passage in the Book of Isaiah (Isaiah 6:1-8) used the term to describe six-winged beings that fly around the Throne of God crying "holy, holy, holy". This throne scene, with its triple invocation of holiness (a formula that came to be known as the Trisagion), profoundly influenced subsequent theology, literature and art. Its influence is frequently seen in works depicting angels, heaven and apotheosis. Seraphs are mentioned as celestial beings in an influential Hellenistic work, the Book of Enoch, and the Book of Revelation. [/quote] Although I am not religious, I am a bit into "holy" and "unholy", or celestial stuff since I played Bayonetta a few years ago (and I still am playing it sometimes). I can probably view all that stuff a bit different than "usual" people, but that's why I really think it's cool. That's basically it. :) -Seraphim Crypto

Anyone that knows me knows a few basic things. 1: I'm generally soft spoken and reasonable articulate. 2: Most of the time I'm very patient and forgiving. 3: If you push me to my breaking point, I will unload scary bits of Hell on you. When I asked some friends a few years back to help me come up with a new gt, they came back a day or so later with Faultline. Made sense. I liked it. The FLG. was for a 300+ member clan I ran about 2 years ago called Fault Line Gaming. I still have all the old squad tags under my friends list if anyone would like to verify.

Skyrim. I was playing while my older brother watched and I was just taking a midnight stroll around the plains of Whiterun. I had just gotten done slaying a giant and his merry mammoths and resumed floating along when iron arrows suddenly started clinking on the rocks around me. I whipped around like "Alright, who has the balls?" My brother died of laughter.

Trado Spolium = Latin for "surrender the booty" as in a pirate and loot ;-)

Edited by KamiHattMew: 3/24/2015 7:23:31 PMMy name is Matthew, and I'm a Pokémon fan... Shut up, troll. Anyway, one day a friend of mine pointed out if I switched the m and h around , it'd make Hatt Mew. I decided at that my point that that would be my username for everything. As for the Kami, I added that to things recently due to a line in the video. [spoiler]"Seriously!? Da -blam!-'s a Kami!?" "It means god. Now, bow."[/spoiler]

My name is Kyle Russell, K.Russell. It used to be Krussell86 but a few kids worked out that 86 was the year I were born and said "I'm too old to be playing games" I changed it to KrussellOne when the xb1 came out.
