Username Origin
Davidr64yt
"David" comes from his forename, surprisingly being David. "R" stands for Rodriguez, his surname. "64" is X's favourite number, because his favourite console is the Nintendo 64. "YT" stands for YouTube.
X
"X" is short for one of X's World of Warcraft alts: X'alamon, from whom he draws his origins on Youtube.
Music
It is believed that X has composed a piece of music by the name of “Warm Rain in a Rust Red Sky” (heard at the begining of his video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXIO1W4INxE). On August 5, 2015, during a livestream, X confirmed that he created it.

X's Profession
X's profession is, apart from his face, the most secret aspect of his life. However, he has stated in various videos and blog posts that he has/had a freelance writing business and is/was working at a cell phone business. David has also stated that he had owned his own business at one point. But, whenever X's profession is asked in his stream by one of his fans the most likely answer will be: "I go out there and rock face / kick ass." We assume these are humorous responses, since if you would literally go out on a public pavement and kick a random person in their anus, you may get arrested.
In past videos, he stated that he was not sure if he wanted YouTube to become his job, since he does it for the hobby and fun of it when he feels like it. Although X may have a contract with Machinima as has been mentioned before, he has never publicly stated he makes his living off of his uploads, and his infrequent uploads and random upload sprees make it seem like he is not making a living off of YouTube.
In a recent stream of Dark Souls, David has stated he has a job, but will not disclose any details, and definitely does not make a living off of Youtube or Twitch considering he makes barely a dollar per twitch stream just from ad revenue.
Trivia
- As stated in his Zelda livestreams he does not age in human years.
- He does not follow a straight line through time.
- His favored 'curse' is "Confound it all to the Hades"
- The sword he uses in Dishonored, "Amywangwang," was named after a weapon he found in Powder.
