 		[Trailhead?] Harlequin Says
I got an email from "Harlequin Masquerade" (theharlequinsaysSPLATgmail.com) that simply says "Remember me!". There's a picture attached that leads to this MySpace.

http://www.myspace.com/theharlequinsays

Its something because the distribution list has a ton of UF people on it, but I can't for the life of me recall if this is for an existing game or this is a new trailhead. Searching for "harlequin" here doesn't yield anything new. I guess I fail the "Remember me" part.

 		I'm assuming it means Harley Quinn. From Batman.

Would be fitting, cause of the new movie.

That would be awesome and fill the movie with hotness, but IMDB says the is no Harley Quinn slated for The Dark Night. Maggie Gyllenhaal is playing Rachel Dawes this time though and she's much hotter/less crazy than Katie Holmes.

 		So I've emailed this person as well. There's another pic on the MySpace page. Something about a wiki....

I lightened up the original message since it looked p'shopped. Didn't get much other than its defintately a girl holding the sign and they are sitting in a chair. Earthshatterning, I know...

 		So I've gotten another email that merely states "wikipedia it".

I don't mean to be dense, but wikipedia what? I've tried variances on harlequin and remember me, searched user names, and recent edits. I've come up with nothing that strikes me as IG. Perhaps the symbol she's displaying on the piece of paper is the clue. Anyone know what that thing is?

 		Since there's no Harley Quinn in the next Batman movie, I'm thinking maybe for the comic books, a new story arc.

BUT, the mask she's wearing doesn't look like it. I don't want to join MYSpace (it's unsecure), so ask her if she's from Gotham City. Razz

 		In her blurb, shes talking in terms of symphony either referring to theater or a symphony musical. In Wiki, those terms refer to "Warhammer". I'm not familiar with the game so, I dont know if they're connected. The symbol is definitely the key. Maybe someone familiar with music would be able to identify it???

Harlequins do pop up in Warhammer 40,000 as units of the Eldar, and, in game, are female.



I hope my first post here is useful.

 		I've heard about Warhammer 40K. What purpose do they serve?

To be honest, I dont know. Eldar aren't my army of choice, so I never learned much about them. I had a poke through Wikipedia, and found the 40K harlequin article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eldar_Harlequins), if it's any help, though as a summary to those who dont want to slog through the article, they essentially try and exterminate the worst enemy of the Eldar (Chaos) and mediate between the various Eldar factions.

 		Ah. Well, I know all the factions. I thought corsairs were female.

 		*shrugs* Maybe. Like I said, Eldar aren't my forte.

On another note, the symbol in the picture on the myspace kinda reminds me of the Yellow Sign, from The King in Yellow.

 		You're right, the symbol on the Myspace is similar to The King in Yellow symbol. I dont know the story so, I dont know if they're connected. For those who are interested.
