I just sort of threw random syllables together until something sounded good. For whatever reason I didn't want to go by the name I usually use online, which is "Xjph".

Hence your website name, Vith... I get it now.
"Zrog" is sorta like "Grog" or something else that sounds orcish, and with a penchant for stupidity and talking in monosyllables (very warrior-like). I also thought that starting a name with "Z" would be somewhat more original, but apparently, that's not quite the case...

I was really tired, as it was like 3 in the morning. Dime was at my house, and I had just got the game and rolled on Uldum. He said to check out his server, so I just pretty typed in some random characters not thinking I would even keep this toon, let alone use it.
I havent played my toon on Uldum since. Good job Aph, way to plan ahead there.

I just remembered why I didn't use "Xjph". There's something in the WoW ToS or whatever about not using "gibberish" names. While it's not gibberish (it's pronounced Zif), I figured I'd save myself the trouble of trying to explain it to a GM.

the explanation for deathtoray:
RAY MUST DIE!!! HAHAHA!
For many years I beat Ray (my bro) and his kids butts in all games...then something happened, I dont know what, but something changed in the world...
Now I cant beat him at anything...Im not even a challenge anymore...ARGH!!!
I can still beat my nephews but not him.
As retribution for all the years of beatings and humiliation he started calling himself Deathtodavid in all the games we played to punctuate his superiority...sigh
Therefor I am Deathtoray as I am determined to regain my proper place of King Family Butt-kicker.
We have dueled on several occasions and I've cleaned the floor with him (same lvl toons)...I know that may change soon as he is stilll learning how to use his mage and I am somewhat familiar with rogues...until then I will continue cleaning the floor with him! HAHAHAHA!
Power to the horde and DEATH TO RAY!!! HAHAHA!

Prunetracy comes from an episode of the simpsons.
In "Hurricane Neddy" Ned Flander's house is destroyed and he goes insane. During his therapy sessions, it is revealed that during his childhood, he was quite rambunctious. In one particular scene, Ned is seen tearing around the playroom, messing with kids and toys while shouting:
"I'm Dick Tracey! Take that Prune Face!
Now I'm Prune Face, take that Dick Tracey!
Now I'm Prune Tracey! Take that --"
Ned is cut off by a teacher at this point, but I'm sure you can surmise where he was going with that...

Homer is full of motivational quotes:
"Trying is the first step towards failure."

Well, one of my favorite animes ever is Wolf's Rain. So being the hyper original bastard that I am, I took that title, and stuck and -er to the end of it.
I use it for every online game/anything online though, and sometimes I meet people that I've met in other games in different games.

I used to use the name Daemon all the time for online stuff, but it's just too common, and not very Warcrafty.
So... I'm being original this time. I should also note that there WAS a toon named Zorg that I met, and I end up getting called that a lot, because... uh... people can't type? I also think Zorg isn't very original because it was the villain's name in Toy Story 2.
