This is Sean Whalen (prion).

I've been thinking about from where the name aquastor could come, and
since it's an alchemical term, it might be Arabic.  The original form
might be something like al quastr.  Also, if it is Latin, it might be
from acu- (sharp) or aequus (equal), as well as from quasi, aqua, or
quaerere.
