Thanks to Ashrak for pointing me to this tutorial:

http://ningen.nattoli.net/tutorials/magic_talisman_01.html

Figured it'd be better to have something a little original rather than the power symbol which is a tad obvious. Anyhow, speculate away!

It's an ancient angelic summoning symbol.  Or it means 'Thunder' in some ancient, iconographic language.
So as through a glass, and darkly

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

No, you fool.  It's the Outer Oblivian runic symbol for Kalifireth.

Remember kids, he's called Thundfireth now, so don't go around calling him Thunder or some such nonsense.

Nifty avatar BTW. Too bad we mortals don't get none.

Is it on of the weather circles you get taught about in geography.  The wind is 15knots from the west.

You never had my Geography teachers :rolleyes:

Still - Year 11 Geography was fun at least - though again, because of the teacher. He was thick as two short planks, so we had a lot of fun at his expense.
