mtfierce did it, so I'm doing it...
If you know me as "Madeline" you could be damn near anyone.
If you know me as "Mad" you're someone who presumes familiarity with me. Don't worry; everyone who's tried it so far has actually had familiarity with me.
If you know me as "Maddie" you're someone who knew me in elementary school.
You don't know me by my full name. No one does. That is, my family knows it, and a few others might remember, but no one thinks of me that way.
If you knew me as Raven, you're old-school TAG.
If you knew me as Saint Raven, you remember me after I was canonized.
If you know me as Madeline St. Raven, you're one of the confused people who first met me years ago on the Amberlist. I tell you, I've tried to explain...
If you knew me as Rook, you might remember the time I stumbled across command of a quarter of an ongoing BBS RPG because everyone else in that house dropped out.
If you knew me as Red Herring, you remember more of my BBSing past than I do. ><>
If you know me as any of my characters, you know shards of my personality.
My other appellations are merely tools; and as for the rest...
Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it.
