Get down Boromir! Oh, wrong thread.

Anyhow, who is the BlondeVassel

Boromir88 · 08-03-2004, 05:29 AM

Lol, I sort of like being referred to as the "disco king."

Anyway Firefoot, the only blonde elf I know (if she even is blonde) would be Galadriel. Seems like a reasonable guess.

Nope.

do you mean blonde vassal as I can't find a definition for vassel?

If so, could it be Theoden or Eomer?

Boromir88 · 08-03-2004, 07:37 AM

Essex, I was thinking maybe it has something to do with "Firefoot's" sn, so I was thinking along the lines of Eomer as well, but snuck it in before me.

Well, I'll go with my back up option Eowyn.

A Vassal is a servant to a King. In Feudalism, you have Peasants, Serfs, and Vassals. Vassals are nobility, sworn to serve the King in exchange for land. They own a fiefdom, or property. Serfs work the land and Peasants also work the land. Serfs cannot be seperated from the land they work on, and I believe are allowed to grow crops there. Peasant and Serf were often used interchangebally, but Pesant could also mean slave. So, let's see, blondevassal. Hmmm...

Firefoot · 08-03-2004, 10:30 AM

Yes, I meant vassal. Apologies.

And it has nothing to do with my nick... it's in the Sil.
