His best known alias is Trakx, a name he adopted from the 1988 action film, Traxx. His original use of the name was Lord`Trakx which he began use of which as an internet screen name in 1994 in an AOL chat room. Later, approximately in 1996, it was changed to King`Trakx as he and another user founded a room by the name, #DarkCastle. In 1998, the title was dropped, simply going by Trakx.
In 1996, he began a website dedicated to the Russell Crowe's character, SID 6.7, from the 1995 sci-fi action film, Virtuosity. Nathan later explained, "I didn't want to do a page about myself, and after watching the movie after it came out on video, I was impressed enough with the character that I thought I would begin a site about him. I wanted to use this site as a means to learn webdesign. While I thought the character was great, it wasn't until later that I became 'obsessed' with him, thinking of any way to further give detail to the character and the site about him". In 2001, Nathan moved the site to Hidden-Mask.com. and transferred its files to the new site.
Nathan has been a strong contributer to the Yahoo! Groups MSHAG forum Yahoo Groups! MSHAG forum, a forum discussing the role-playing game, Marvel Super Heroes Adventure Game, released by TSR in 1998.
