Hwæt!
Hwæt, folks!
I'm Hus, an amateur historian (Anglo-Saxon and Viking Britain are my 'specialities'), film buff and keen artist! I loved the Rings trilogy, and although my Tolkien knowledge is slim, I look forward to chatting!

Welcome Huscarl and Dakêsîntrah. I hope you'll enjoy a long afterlife here.
After reading Lommie's comment about Zil and Pitch, I find now I can't rid myself thinking of them as the duo called Ziltch .

Greetings too, Dakêsîntrah, and welcome to the Downs! Judging from your first post, you obviously have quite a lot to contribute. Enjoy being dead!

Welcome, new members, hope you enjoy the Downs!
Huscarl, your name reminds me of Age of Empires II, I remember the Gothic hero unit was called that. There was a pretty sweet mission in there where you started off in Normandy as William the Conqueror and had to fight your way to Harold the Saxon's castle, defended by a bunch of huscarls. Luckily you got help from Harald Hardraade and the unique Viking units, the berserks quickly got rid of the huscarls. Good times...

I have a question for our new member Dakêsîntrah. Whence comes your nick? It looks a bit similar to the orcish tongue, but no words exactly fit, nor with the dwarven tongue either. There is a black metal band called Darkestrah as well, but . . . perhaps we should just let you provide an explanation?
