@ Lunsford>> See Waitress'sssss post above. It's at the bottom of the signup.

@ Zslasher>> I'm not saying you're wrong, because... Hey, who knows? But let me feed the other 50%...

Doh! I knew that I had read it, I just forgot that it wasn't in this thread. Thanks for the linkage.

Please pick a chevron

A chevron is a badge or insignia, often pertaining to uniformed rank or identifying your heraldry on the battlefield way back when. So they may just be nifty avatars to associate with yourself. Or like the knights, maybe by choosing a chevron we're "fighting" for some faction?

And hey, didn't someone say that we need a whole bunch of random pages before the game started...What chevron did you guys choose and why? Very Happy

I chose Terpsichore by the image on it because it reminded me of cells in mitosis. Only after I saw the names given to each did I realize that it must have been some super freaky subconscious decision. I used to live on Terpsichore St.

Well, I hesitated then chose Euterpe as it sounds like the name of an overpriced perfume. After googling it I was still happy. Wink

the names of the chevrons seem to be the names of eight of the muses Calliope, Urania, Euterpe, Thalia, Inspiration, Melpomene, Erato , Mnemosyne, Clio, Terpsichore, and Polymnia

There's a reason you think that... Though I prefer 'little loaf of bread' as a translation. When I was visiting the semi-ex-inlaws [don't ask] in Costa Rica the next door cousin would bring by these little rolls or baguettes depending on the day and say "Pancito para pancito" cause I do like bread, and there are some excellent bakers in Costa Rica. Has absolutely nothing to do with my pancita. Honest.
