Well, seeing as my nickname is a somewhat phonetic representation of a (lower-case, I'm really not that tall) letter...

It's a Pokemon that looks like it's related to Valentine's day even though it might secretly hate Valentine's day.

I hate Luvdisc. It's one of the most pointless Pokemon of all time. I like Alomomola.

Doc Logan complained that all my recent avatars have been birds and bats, so I decided to throw him a bone...

...less animal. I'm going back to my roots in the sea, just like my first avatar, and this is a vampire squid. Unlike Logan, it doesn't drink the blood of its victims, but it's still way cooler than he'll ever be.

How EA expects you to "farm" their latest character release.

This leaves me more confused than I was before I saw your explanation.

The character is Visas Marr from the Knights of the Old Republic II game. She's notable for being the last Miraluka left after Darth Nihilus ate their planet for the noms. She's also blind and sees through the Force. My guess is AGL is referring to how you have to blindly farm for stuff in games and that's pointless and annoying.

It's a horrible pun on her name, and I'm poking fun at the blatant cash-grabs that occur with character/feature releases in mobile games. I do the same thing with my user title.

Admittedly, I'm not hugely familiar with that era of the Star Wars universe, and just think she looks cool like Nihilus (now watch as hard-core SW fans start raging). As for the rest, it's a lazy-as-fuck pun and I couldn't resist.

A month and a half it took me to recognize my nosfutank daughter because she didn't have purple hair. :oops:

Who is her mother in your picture? Sully?

Sorry, can you explain these puns to me? Maybe as if I know nothing about Star Wars or video games?

Panne, actually. She unfortunately lacks ears as a Taguel.
