So, we've got 'His Excellency Lord Oldrac Cataphractos, called the Chitinous, Sovereign of all Crabs and protector of the Crustacean State, long may his reign endure', and we've got 'Minister Edminster'. What other formal titles are floating around here?

You need to wax poetic, Lord! Add more honorifics in there, and then it'll be formal.

How about you, Mage? You've gotta have a more formal title than 'mountainmage, King of Postcount++'

Hey, I didn't get to where I am today solely because of ++. I'd say ++ accounts for maybe 5-10% of my posts.

I'm thinking of something along the lines of:
The Supreme Magus of the Mountains, Conjurer of Death in Flame's Guise, Master of the Searing Touch, Possessor of the Hellfire Grimoire, He Whose Vision Sears the World, etc.*

*Burninator of the Countryside.

AHMETxRock is 'AHMETxRock, Self Proclaimed King of the ChitChat Box'.

Man, I wish I had a formal title. If I were to proclaim myself 'Dame Smiley, Lady of the Cow and the Vast and Desolate Prairies', would it count?*

*Or if you were to think up something better, that would be OK too.

Wow, as it turns out I am far too modest for this thread. I need to modify my Formal Title!

Pontifex Edminster, Spiritual Leader of the One True Forum, Interpreter of the Whims of Zach the Magnificent, Destroyer of Locomotives and Shaper of Spam-Bots.

Also Smiley? That's a jawesome Formal Title.

Thank you! I stole it from a BBC article which called the area around where I live (i.e. my hometown the next hour and a half east) "A desolate stretch of Canadia's vast prairies".

If BBC calls it that, it must be true, right?

No one wants to live in the prairies. I am sorry.

Excuse me, I neglected to use my FULL title; it is Lord Paramount Retardus, Grand Wizard of the Chapter of Canadia, Angriest Man Alive, Harbinger of Plague, Ignorant Holocaust Denier, Alleged Sex Offender, Promoter of Intelligent Design, Part Falcon, Ruiner of Good Things, Black Tortoise of the North, von den Zurückgeblieben del Retraso of the Second Coming.

I saw you sneak that in! If anybody here qualifies for the title 'Ruiner of Good Things', it is Mage and I.

Would Wolf get a Formal Title? I should think so, but then again I am not well-versed in the ways of the Northern She-Barbarians...
