Glad somebody found it. Correct Eomer. Sorry but I'm not good at making things cryptic so I go obscure and vague instead.

It was certainly different, Morm. The only other thing I got from reading all those names backwards was redlimb, from a user called bmilder. Everything else was gibberish (unsurprisingly).

Right, must think of a clue. Back soon.

See! Arien visits the beaches of Elenna.

Have at it.

Is it nightwalker?

Interesting guess! Not right, though. I'm not giving hints yet, by the way.

Ah -- a good puzzle, morm -- I figured out that I should be reading someone's name backwards, but alas I didn't come across Nonnacedak as I was searching for likely suspects in the member's list.

I'll have to give yours a bit more thought Eomer...

Numenorean

my reason: He has an avatar (see! you see people's avatars) which depicts a beach scene which suddenly goes orange, like the sun is setting. And of course, he's in Numenor.

Like so.

Then your man must be "son of numenor".

Actually an even more fragile link than the last, but Arien made me think "sun", and "sun"/"son" got me thinking...

bomabriffic.

...Just noticed Diamond's post and reckon it's correct. blast.
