Whence "Jinxmchue"
My username (which I have used elsewhere in various forms: "Jinx McHue," "Jinx72," etc.) is a combination of two things:
- "Jinx" is the name of an old Advanced Dungeons and Dragons character of mine who was a hornhead saurial "wild mage" (user of "wild magic" from the AD&D Tome of Magic). Hornheads are normally mute and 10 feet tall, but the dungeon master didn't like either idea, so he had Jinx shortened by a curse and given an amulet that allowed him to speak. As a wild mage, Jinx was prone to "wild surges," or strange, random and unexpected magical effects. Jinx's most prized possession was a wand of wonder, which he as a wild mage could occasionally control (via a random die roll) in order to power any of the spells he knew (i.e. he did not need to have them memorized). Unfortunately, both Jinx's wild surges and the use of the wand of wonder seemed to lead to very unfortunate circumstances at the most inopportune times. For example, when attacked by some fish creatures while in a small boat, Jinx tried to cast a lightning bolt into the water. Instead of a lightning bolt, a large volume of water directly next to the boat simply vanished. (Thankfully, everyone survived the ensuing crash of water and boat filling up the space.) In another incident, Jinx tried to charm an injured enemy... from a safe distance. The precaution turned out to be very prescient as the enemy became ground zero for a fireball. (These series of in-game misfortunes oddly and appropriately reflected my real life, as I am very accident prone.)
- "McHue" is a concept borrowed from a friend. In creating part a screen name, he used the first syllable of his last name preceded by "Mc." I have done the same.
