| Birched |
| Name: Birched
Age: Can find my correct birth year (don't trust anything else) on the site. Calculating the difference is left as an exercise for the reader. (I'm probably older than you, and don't care to discuss the details.) Location: This is mentioned in a post on the boards somewhere, eh? 
Notable Facts:
Favorite Band: Air Supply. I'm so out of touch it makes me sad.... Favorite Book: not sure about favourite, but fiction series I like are Malazan Book of the Fallen (Steven Erikson) and Song of Ice and Fire (George RR Martin); recently read and was very impressed by a short story collection by Neil Gaiman; I've enjoyed some of Neal Stephenson's stuff; once thought I liked Robert Jordan but by book four or five I was ready to tear my eyes out if I saw just one more unoriginal full page description of someone's outfit (I swear the guy had a button fetish) or saw another mention of anyone pulling on their hair Favorite Movie: I like many movies. Seems a shame to single one out. But 'Revenge Of The Nerds' really struck a chord in my soul. Favorite Sport: Tai Chi Boxing, Cycling, Speed-Typing. Spirit Animal: I feel quite comfortable echoing Saros here: Flying spaghetti monster. Note: Birched is a family man that kindly donates his time to making this website better on it's fundamental level - the code. He is highly involved with the way our site works, please support his efforts! |

Name: Teufel Heunden Age: I'm not young enough to know everything. But I'm not old enough to admit that I don't.  Location: Somewhere in the time space continuum (most of the time) Notable Facts: Back when I was your age, I had to climb to the top of Mt Evil every day, uphill both ways, fighting off hordes of Orcs with nothing but a +1 dagger that I didn't even have Weapon Proficiency with! You see, we didn't have fancy feats like Cleave or Improved Critical. We only got a new Weapon Proficiency every three levels, and we were darned grateful!

Favorite Band: Mainly any rock band I happen to be listening to.

| Zhefonyll |
Zhef claims to be a millenia-old, evil space-elf but, from member reactions, we think it's more likely that he's a cute and fuzzy puppy. He wandered in one day, and we decided to keep him. Just don't try telling him he's not an ancient, evil space-elf. 
Whatever the truth, Zhefonyll frequents the "Ask the Sage: Quick Rules Questions" thread, often giving a longer answer than needed. He also keeps trying to scare Krowout up a tree, but lions don't spook easily.Zhef currently shares responsibility for the New Player Solo Games with Hugga. |

| Jondera |
| Name: Ian Age: Either older or younger than I look, depending on who you ask and the circumstances of observation. Born: In a hospital Location: Central Wisconsin Description: Pretty much average in all ways, except for having horrendously and uncontrollably curly hair, and having a mole on my right cheek... which means that I'm much more instantly recognizable than most people. Favorite Musical Group: To many to list. Most common selections include (in no particular order): A Perfect Circle, Styx, Tristania, Solas, Muse, The Decemberists, Nightwish, Seven Nations, Poe, The Rasmus, and Epica. And classical stuff - I'm especially fond of Grieg and Carl Orff. Favorite Book: My list of favorite books makes my list of favorite music groups seem minuscule... when one is raised by a librarian, one reads a lot. However, I will pick out a few favorite books that I go back and reread more than others: In Fury Born, by David Weber, God Stalk, by Patricia Hodgell, A Tapestry of Magics, by Brian Daley, 1632, by Eric Flint. Favorite Movie: Um. Not much of a movie watcher. It generally fluctuates between several different films directed by Hiyao Miyazaki. Favorite Sport: Um... probably ultimate frisbee. I don't play sports much. Favorite Animal: All of them. ALL OF THEM. Favorite Personal Quote: "Your logic may be perfect, but my illogic is perfecter." |
