Really, you were the leader of the garuda guild? That's nice! I never played this game, maybe I should have!
It is just a coincidence, basically I made the name up by myself.
According to hindu mythology a garuda is a powerful bird, a kind of powerful giant eagle.
I still think this kind of stuff is interesting - mythology and fairy tales - whether or not these things have any base in reality, these kinds of archetypes play a real role in our individual and collective subconciousness ;-)
