Hiya Folks
First post here, but I have been reading most of the site (the rest I'm going to get to soon).
I'm a blacksmith, archer, re-enactor, bushcrafter, ex-LARPer and am looking to start longsword (as soon as the local club unlocks)
I'm a maker of things, a jack of all trades and the guy who has to work out how somethings been made.... And why.
I read 'everything' especially fantasy and fortyish years ago wore out my copy of The Hobbit.
I came here because I like the commitment you folks show and also I love the aesthetic that you have created.

But the white fury of the Northmen burned the hotter, and more skilled was their knighthood with long spears and bitter. Fewer were they but they clove through the Southrons like a fire-bolt in a forest.

Welcome to the forum
Gimli: It's true you don't see many Dwarf-women. And in fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance, that they are often mistaken for Dwarf-men.
Aragorn: It's the beards.

I am sorry as I usually try and greet people in Old English (Rohirric) in some sort of personal way but your admirable skill set is making that a wee bit harder than the usual. I will see what I can come up with
