He's an oxymoron. I wonder where he is?....
"The vulture was a Mother-Nature goddess, called Mut or Nekhbet. Egyptian legends said vultures were all virgins, fertilized by the wind or Holy Spirit. The vulture goddess gave life and later took it back by eating carrion. She was sometimes depicted with breasts, suckling the kings. " (forgot to paste the web page. Google it yourself).

Just so you know, I'm so fed up of seeing your flashing Avatar and hitting the Escape to stop it, I've actually taken the time out to block it permanetly!
I'll never see you flashing pants Avatar again 😏
I've studied just about every myth there is/was about vultures, and I recall a website with really crappy font that talked about the carrion thing and the whole breasts thing, I believe. Most of the legends of vultures are very dark though.... *sigh* So much typing for this late at night...
All right, a seraphim is the highest rank of all angels, sometimes depicted with three pairs of wings, and almost always portrayed as the essence of beauty. They have been always been considered the holliest of all angels, and in any old movies you see where an angel comes to give life to a fallen hero, it's almost always a seraphim. They are also commonly associated with the color white, and commonly considered to be the givers of life to those in need.
All righty then, a vulture is the lowest of all birds. It feeds on death, and were once considered to have been spawned straight from hell to feed on the damned. They are commonly associated with the color black, and considered vile and ugly creatures.
As you can see, it's a very much a constrast between the two, and I thought that depicted certain personality traits of mine very well. The name also sort of has a connection with Poe's "The Raven", my favorite poem. The word 'seraphim' is used in it (was how I first learned the meaning of it), and... well, if you combine an angel and a vulture, disregarding any mutants you'd pretty much get something close to a raven probably.... But yeah, that's how I came up with it then. Plus I think it sounds cool, so meh.

I have to hold my hand over the screen to read any thread he's posted in, and I have'nt been able to read anything he's posted since he put it up. I just assume it's the usual drivel and carry on as if he was'nt there, but that avatar is making me sick.
