Byron Thorn
To follow your guts against extraordinary odds. Derived from the main character of the popular kid's fantasy books "Silverlance" and "Haunted Mountain", in which a 12-year old satyr youth named Byron Thorn sets off on an impossible quest.
When faced with the prospect of moving to a new city without a job, he told his friends: "I'm just going to Byron Thorn it."
