I love skritt and their voices and dialogs. They made me laugh many times - in my opinion the best lower race in the game so far. I tried to get everything related to them, like every mini, even the glitter bomb harvesting tool - because of the skritt. So a skritt profile pic was just the logical consequence - was glad it came.

I had originally retained the default icon due to being unable to use one that I choose as well.

 

After a while I saw this one:

I decided to use it as I really like this combination of green hues and black, the scything split of the Z/backward S, and the circular 'portal-like' aspect of its design as I have a strong affinity with symmetry and curves/spheres.

 

It wasn't until just recently that I realized that it is the profession icon for the ~~revenant or something~~ Scourge (thanks, IC).

 

~~I can see some kind of relationship between the portal-like design and the revenant and the mists, however, what two sickle-looking blades with handles and the letter 'Z' has to do with the revenant I haven't a clue.~~

It's not a Revenant icon, but a Necromancer (Scourge) icon.

Ah. Thank you for that clarification. It seems that would make it more likely to be a backward 'S' (for 'Scourge') rather than it being a Z.

I love dragons generally and Glint and her kids are favourites, so it was a natural choice. It was just a matter of picking between the available Glint/Vlast/Aurene icons. I picked this one because I like it and I feel like it's used less often - which helps avoid me mixing up my posts and other peoples when skimming through topics.
