Testosterone

The Peak Of Masculinity

I know, "Testosterone" is an unusual name for a website. But here is my explanation for it!
First off, "Testosterone" is one of the titles Regal can aquire in the game. You must have him and three other males in the party for him to gain it. Amy convinced me to use "Testosterone" as a title. Why? I'm not quite sure, but I think it fits. Regal is a man's man, so using "Testosterone" seems appropriate. But testosterone is more than just a name. I did a bit of research on the subject and this is what I found out. Prepare yourself for some brain food...

From Wikipedia

"Testosterone is a steroid hormone from the androgen group. Testosterone is secreted in the testes of men and the ovaries of women. It is the principal male sex hormone and the "original" anabolic steroid. In both males and females, it plays key roles in health and well-being. Examples include enhanced libido, energy, immune function, and protection against osteoporosis."
"Like other steroid hormones, testosterone is derived from cholesterol. The largest amounts of testosterone are produced by the testes in men, but it is also synthesized in smaller quantities in women by the theca cells of the ovaries, by the placenta, as well as by the zona reticulosa of the adrenal cortex in both sexes."
"Testosterone is also often used by bodybuilders to enhance muscle build."
"Empirical formula C19H28O2"

I've also read somewhere that high amounts of testosterone cause aggressive behavior. Anyway, I thought those bits of information were interesting. Congradulations, your brain just gained another wrinkle.
