The history of TORNOTLUKIN, like the history of Steam, is possibly as old as Valve itself. It may be that Stream shaped TORNOTLUKIN in the Age before Ages, or that the internet shaped TORNOTLUKIN from the stuff of pure binary. It's suggested that TORNOTLUKIN might have been a proto-profile who learned to sign up in the beta, or that TORNOTLUKIN is a profile of pure geometry that Valve slowly transformed into an avatar.
