Is It Your Virtue?

Several years ago, someone I met on icq from the west coast decided I was such an interesting person that he wished to use my original name (which until recently I have been the only one in the world, literally) and create a character based on me in a well known forum. I agreed thinking it would truly be neat to have a mini author write a character based after myself. Needless to say I don't remember if I was killed off or left the forum all together, but it was in bravery and not in vain... so I think I might have died, hehe. I don't remember and am too lazy to find the printouts of the storyline. But I, in this little way, went down in history.

About 5-6 years ago I ran into someone from a famous island who said they wished to write a book about me and my adventures. Whatever? Am I that intriguing persons feel the need to write about me?

Shortly there after, for shits and giggles, some people I knew googled my one of a kind name and what did they find? ....Another rpg character based on me with my given name. Nearly right down to the T, one subtle difference remains. But here's the kicker - the person who created this character lives on the other side of the world and never knew that I, the real one, ever existed. I contacted this person at that time and the creator of the character's reply was "It was all from their head". Just the other day I decided to check "me" out again. I still remained perpetuated in someone out there's fantasy.

In a way I was very happy in my later years to have such a unique name and uniquely way of being named. Mostly the fact that I "was" the only one out there gave me a sense of complete satisfaction. Once, I even thought to pull a Dicaprio. Fascinating really...

So, two times in the running, I have seen my immortality while alive. Which, in the longest run, is so much better than possibly never knowing after you die. So immortality I have achieved without even trying and I am not quite sure if this is how I expected it. For now, in at least two instances, I am immortal.

***What My Name Means***
You are a seeker of knowledge, and you have learned many things in your life. You are also a keeper of knowledge - meaning you don't spill secrets or spread gossip. People sometimes think you're snobby or aloof, but you're just too deep in thought to pay attention to them. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.
You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row. You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace. People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun.
