Allen Tran

The word "Tormentalous" originated around 2004 when a guy by the name of Allen Tran started playing Final Fantasy XI. By that time, Allen was in the Yu-Gi-Oh phase (embarrassed) in saw the episode with Obelisk The Tormentor. He thought to himself, "Hmm, Tormentor. Sounds menacing." He dropped the last two letters and added "alous" and Tormentalous was born. The first character he used that name on was a Dark Knight on FFXI. After that, the name stuck and has been his moniker since.
