used to play counter strike in school days. And liked to attack from stealth locations - hence thought vampire was a good handle. stuck to it ever since.

Can anyone guess what my handle stands for? Hardcore horror buffs may be familiar with it

I don't know about horror, but I thought your username derived from something in the Eragon novel series - i remember something similarly named in it.

I have not heard of the Eragon novel series, but it's from a series written by the King of Horror. Ok, that more or less gives it away.

From Stephen Kings Dark Tower novel , the protagonist comes from Gilead.

You got it dude. The Dark Tower is a series of 7 novels written over a period of 34 years. My all time favorite!

KR - Kimi Raikkonen , my favourite driver for a looong time . Aptly called the iceman , he was amazingly fast , classy and spoke his mind.Held his own against other greats like Schumi , Alonso , montoya etc . He was World Champ , holds the record for most number of fastest laps in a season. Sadly we might have seen the end of his f1 career .

f1 - Formula 1 of course . The sport I follow like a relegion . As Ernest Hemingway said " There are only three sports - bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games ".

Paradox is an internal tool we use at office, to re-index borland databases and hence the handle.
