Introduce Yourself

If you're new to Dragonmount, stop in and introduce yourself!

  1. Started by Merghana,

    Hi everyone! I'm new here, but not to Wheel of Time. It's been a while since I've read the books though, so I'm reading through them again. I've never looked for a WOT community before though, but I'm glad I did. I think I'll like it here ~smiles~

    The name's Kison, I guess. Well, that's just my current internet alias that I tend to use these days. I'm sure in the coming years that'll change just like it has before. Real name can vary between: Michael, Mike, Malfoy, Slinky, Loud Guy, Quiet Guy, Obnoxious Guy, Loserface(that's a new one). Many others that probably should not be posted here. I'm a computer nerd at heart, though if you met me you'd probably never figure that out. Taught myself to program at too young of an age. Have read every Wheel of Time book. Mat Cauthon is my hero. Uno is next in line. Run my own Wheel of Time based game(Not the Mafia Game). Can find it as my "www". Kind of dead lately…

    Hey all you WoT fans! Im new to the site. I started reading the series a few years ago. After I read Knife of Dreams, I set them aside for a while. I've just recently picked them back up and I'm reading through the series for a second time. I kinda stumbled on this site looking for news on RJ's health, and news on the 12th book. Jordan's blog on here is amazing, I havent heard anything of his progress since the TOR website made the announcement that he was ill. Other than the WoT, some other interests of mine are guitar/drums, Counter Strike, and World of Warcraft.

    Just joined living in Huntsville, AL and been reading WOT for 5-7 years now. Found this site researching the next novel. Very sorry to discover Robert's condition, but was greatfull to see him recovering. Will try to find time to visit and learn what all is here. Looks great so far. My first impresstion was that I had jumped to pond based on the variety of 'organisations' listed under ORGS. The other 'organizations' really made me stumble. I do love the international scope and breath of the forum...I'll just have to check the poster's location to get the spellings correct. Greetings to all.

    Hello, I'm very happy to be part of Dragonmount now. I'm not sure what's up with the avatar gallery though, when I click the button when editing my profile, there are no categories on the pull-down menu. :?

    Hello DMers! I have been looking for a good WoT site for quite some time now, and I think I may be able to stop looking finally! (Notice that my excitement has caused an over-use of exclamation points! HOORAY!!!!) :D I have joined and Org, and am now off to find a fabulous RP spot to snuggle into. Hope to "meet" you all soon!

I'm looking forward to get to know you!

    Hi, I'm new, and I want to introduce myself to everyone. :D I started reading TWOT right after the 9th book came out, so it's been a few years already of waiting for the end of the story. I used to read those books practically everyday. But over the years it never occurred to me to look online and see what the other fans are talking about. But then one day I was going through iTunes, and found the 4th Age Podcast, and now a couple months later, here I am writing my first post here. Anyways, whatever. Pleased to be here! :D

  13. I'm nearing the end of my second read through the WOT and had a couple of questions - looked them up online and here you were! This is quite the site. I'm looking forward to finding my way around. BTW, kudos to the person who first postulated that Semirhage and Anath were the same person! Blew me away. I'm obviously a rook. :)

  14. Cheers all, I've been reading through these boards for the past day or two, and figured that I might as well introduce myself, as you've got a forum made for just that. In any case, I'm gonna give you a story, just a short one, one that explains my my name. Barmacral = Barm, Barmy, Drunk Fish, Noob, whatever other names there are out there. Where'd it come from? Bar-Macral Bar: This I got from Guy Gavriel Kay's book Tigana. A man's name would have Bar in it just before his fathers name, and a woman's name would have Bren. For example, in the Tigana world, Rand Al'thor would actually be Rand Bar Tam di Tigana or something like that. Macral: Naturally, W…

  18. Ello, there. As of 8:47 PM EST I am the second newest member here. As I figured out, through boredom and a time consuming five minutes, it doesn't take long for someone not to be the newest guy (or girl, for all those high-minded sexist females out there who get offended by being lumped with us "guys"). I was procrastinating doing my homework and roaming around EncyclopediaWOT when I decided I would go check out RJ's blog and see what he had to say. I read a bit there and thought I'd look around the site a bit and finally decided to join. And thus is the story of how I came to your humble doorstep, probably too wordy and completely unnecessary but hey, I'm bored and need …

HELLO--I see you! some of you may know me, I am Cat Sedai of the Brown Ajah at Towers of Light http://www.towersoflight.net/ and Dava, the Mistress of Initiates at Phrygia (which is a RP site, but not a WoT site) http://z6.invisionfree.com/Phrygia/index.php?

    Hello everyone! I've been lurking for a short while now, and finally decided to introduce myself :) IRL I'm a graduate student studying Plant Breeding & Genetics. I'm a huge science nerd. But I'm also an attorney, so I'm currently working to mesh all of my interests into something worthy of a lifetime career. I have been reading the WoT series for many years now and I've read it through several times. I'm a huge fan of this genre of books. My other all-time favourites are the Belgariad and the Mallorean series by David Eddings. In my free time I love to cook, read, play games, and garden. I've got two lovely cats and one charming husband. All in all, …

    Long time WoT fan, but haven't found the right site to join. Until now. I'm not a RP'er, but I LOVE to discuss aspects of the books. Anyway, I need to quench the thirst to talk about WoT, and seeing that I can't stop reading (and re-reading) the books, I might as well join up and start dicsussing!

    Greetings to you all. I am quite new here. And probably unknown to you all. Since there are no other fans of the wot in my surroundings and I do have the urge to discuss the books I found it a good alternative to sign myself up. I've looked around a little but I couldn't find the standards for and introduction-topic. Therefore I'm just going to tell some things about myself. My greatest passions in life are reading and listening to music. I've been reading the wot since january last year and've read the whole of the series almost twice now. I've never had a better anti-depressive than this extraordinary creation. But ofcourse the quality of the series is som…

    Hey there new guys and gals. If ever you've got some free time and you're on the boards, we run a regular game on Fiddlesticks that's pretty fun, and not nearly as lame as it sounds. It's a Werewolf game. Basically, the players are villagers in a town that's plagued by werewolf attacks. The object of the game is to catch the werewolves before all the villagers are eaten. There are public hangings, mutilations, explosive humans, all sorts of good stuff. So, any of you folks who are into the roleplaying stuff, or who just have some time to kill, come on over, you'll find the sign-up thread in Fiddlesticks. Take 'er easy!

    I recently got turned on to The Wheel of Time novels by a friend at work (who I didn't expect to read fantasy .... but goes to show!)... Anyhow, I've read through the 11 core books over the last couple months, and once I catch up on my other fiction I'll be re-reading them, what an amazing universe. Discussing the world with this buddy that turned me on to these books, he mentioned a few times that there was a very active community online, so I set out to find it, and I landed here. The one questions I have is this: Is there a list of acronyms somewhere, you folks sure do use a bunch, and it'd be useful to have a cheat sheet! Anyhow, thanks in advance! -…
