Unlike other bad dub anime and bad dub OST, Slayers was actually very well done for it's time. Xellos also got his name from Slayers  You might want to check with pubbanna about that one...
I'm quite sure I've read in an interview that Xellos got his nick from Slayers...

He got his nick from the Slayers mousepad he had, which had Xellos on it.

It's kinda like club soccer and international soccer. You play for a club, but you can be called up for your country (or clan).

Anyone know what clan FBH was in before he got his license?

I remember being in love with Ever)P(Zealot too. I thought he had amazing PvZ, but then I never heard of him again.
