The P.O.S.T Man

Voltagirus Leprachaunitus

A mythological fairy of overclocking. If the P.O.S.T. Man is in the room, he will cast a magical charm that stabilises otherwise failed overclocks. When you attempt to power on your system and there is no response, you have accidentily trodden on the P.O.S.T. Man, and without his charm on the computer it will no longer boot.

P.O.S.T. Men are attracted to high voltages, and can sometimes be seen nose-diving at heatsinks to feed off the EMI nectar.
