That avatar rocks. Totally.

And if the rest of us had to work so hard for our avatars, there would be fewer of them. (insert anti-MAC tirade here) ....nah, nevermind.

Two trees, silmarils, sun&moon... and is that Meneltarma? No, of course not. Silly me. It's that valinorish mountain that Manwe's throne is on. Yeah, yeah, that one, the one called... gmph....
>>_<<
Gah.

Somebody help me.


Everwhite. Mount Everwhite. What's the elvish name??

Yes, Esty! You do indeed-- naturally, davem is dq'ed despite his dizzying didactics-- pending pronouncement of his personal title.

Of course you COULD ask the quiz question, What Should Davem's Personal Title Be...

Child of the 7th Age is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Thumbs up

There does seem to be a rush to this thread.... May I offer hearty congratulations to the learned but reluctant Illustrious Ulairi!!

Imladris has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

But, forgive my ignorance, what is an Ulairi?

Congratulations, davem! Though I'm not quite sure what it means, it's a lovely title.

davem is battling Black Riders on Weathertop.davem is battling Black Riders on Weathertop.
From Encyclopedia of Arda:

Quote:
Úlairi
A name for the Ringwraiths

The rarely used Elvish name for the creatures of darkness more commonly called Nazgűl or Ringwraiths.
ARRGGHH!! being a lousy Elvish scholar I now think it should be 'Illustrious Ulair' - isn't Ulairi the plural? Let me know somebody, & I'll get Esty to amend it.

See what happens when you try & show off
