Which Barrowdowns title would you use? (if you actually got one) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Given that I'm not the chattiest person in the world, I rather think it will never be needed, but "Pronouncement of Doom" (or something similar) strikes me as appropriate. Aside from the difficult pronunciation of my nickname, there was a time a few months ago when it seemed as if every time I posted to a thread, it either died or went into a coma for a while. Just coincidence, no doubt, but I think I was in a low slump at the time.

Yes, I certainly felt it appropriate to have a spooky element and for myself I needed a literary reference (though Maud Gonne is as unlikely a comparison as Angelina! save that she was also Hampshire born). And it reflected my restless nature.

Maud Gonne?

Wasn't she the Irish independence activist that Yeats was madly in love with to the end of his days?

Yep and alas I don't have that effect on poets - unless they have trampled each other to death in the rush... but this is going off topic a bit even though my PT is from a poem he wrote for her...

Something from the following for me:

Telchar's Apprentice
Armorer of the Iron Hills
Chief Smith of Erebor

Curmudgeonly Wordwraith.

That's it. Now, refrain from indulging in further tedious queries and stay the hell off my lawn! ;p

Something less emo than my current one.

I still like the Elvish, though. But...maybe something Old English-y or Latin-y...

Maybe something involving 'Minstrel', but that would just be a lie.

Maybe something even more emo having to do with 'blood' to go along with my emo RPG titles.

...I should never get a tatoo either.
