Actually, my troll name is Anonymous. I clicked on your links but didn't see jomar anywhere. You must still be writing a really good scene for jomar, huh. Bless you. :rose:

Pick one of the following:

Bow
Sword
Dagger
Axe
Stave/Wand

And tusks. Lahle has tusks, and a habit of marking her mates...

Edited to add: I'm resisting the Dwarven Fishing Pole joke. Just...
Please tell the dwarven Fishing Pole joke, please! :D

Maid Marion ring any bells?

Nope, but it does have possibilities for a Gay Male story. :p

from a quick google search:
Maid Marian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Maid Marian is the female companion to the legendary figure Robin Hood. Although stemming from another, older tradition, she became associated with Robin ...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maid_Marian - 37k - Cached - Similar pages

MariOn is a male name, MariAn is a female name -- despie the fact that many parents don't spell their daughter's name properly on the birth certificate and thus stick their daughter with a male name.

My Father dealt with similar ignorance over the difference between FrancIs and FrancEs (male and female respectively) his entire life and never, signed anything with his middle name spelled out.

I don't see my weapon of choice on that list either...

That's okay, I always keep it with me regardless. ;)

What - no bow and arrows?

I'm deeply hurt.

;)

But, but... There's a Bow! The arrows are a given!

Ok, Jomar the Troll Warrior it is. Lemme boot up the modelviewer and I'll make a prelim figure...

I'm very, very scared.

Bow. That's long bow and arrows, a weapon that changed changed history.

I had a smart remark, but I'm too tired, and it flitted away before I could post it.

g'night, all. :kiss:

G'night Cloudy.

(PS: If he'd picked bow he would have come out as a Hunter)

I'm sure it had to do with shafts and such. :) But the truth is the long bows were weapons of change in medieval times. Sleep well.
 
I can assure you that Marion is a fairly common female first name in Germany. And no, it is not a misspelling of Marian, which I don't think we really have. At least I've never met anyone in Germany called that, though I have met several Marions. The closest equivalent would probably be Marianne.

Ack. I just saw this. Okay. I can accept being the honorable leader of the trolls (not that I am one, just ask) who leads them to glory and wins the girl (hint, hint). After all, in the LOTR the troll is a hero! Right?

ETA: Hey, I'm kind of kick ass, huh? Thanks.

Fear not-- I mean you no harm ;)

I only wield my weapon for Good-- or Orgasm, which is pretty much the same thing...

Okay, that was cool, so ignore what I just said. :) I'm going to have to read your stuff and explore your world. I look forward to it JL.

No, that was in Harry Potter. ;)

Marion ... Marian ... Marianne.

As far as I know, all three are variant spellings of Mary Ann (the mother and grandmother of Jesus have always been popular names among Christian converts.)

However, the distinction between Marion/Marian and Francis/Frances is an English language distinction (and possibly just an American distinction) For some reason the male and female versions of Carol (i.e the late Carol O'Conner, AKA Archie Bunker) are spelled the same.

The gender confusion is one reason why Marion, Francis, and Carol have fallen out of favor in the US as male names in modern times (eg the last half-century or so.) (And aren't all that popular for females, either.)

I thought it was Carrol O'Conner (two rs), and that was what made the destinction. If I'm wrong, dismiss my post and carry on . . . .

Could well be -- I didn't google to double-check the spelling.

Stella, Johnny Cash pretty much wrecked Sue as a name that wouldn't get a child of either gender tormented by their peers.

I would never name a daughter of mine Sue-- that's for sure.

I'm so glad he didn't write about a man named Stella!
