Title: Your Name: Dorf'd
Post by: Atlas on August 03, 2009, 07:50:42 pm

In this thread, lets post our names represented in the dwarven world.

If you draw/photoshop it yourself, post what it would be to the best of your ability, and I'll shoop it for you.



I'll start with my own.

 Alas, I shall require the images of a royal Duke shopped to have cybernetic implants. While I did have an attempt at such a job, I could not find any suitable resources for such a shopping attempt. If you so choose to take the job, I must wish you luck on finding such resources.

 You have done well. And you chose a suitably cool-looking duke for it.

 I'm too tired to make a proper congrats, but trust me, if this was 12 hours from now I would.

Bone Lords do not flash.  They are made of bone, however.

Forum colors aren't the same as the colors DF uses. I sadly cannot recreate a human that well, so just use your imagination.

Nonetheless, if Person = Ed; then you ARE a horse of course.

You know... that reminds me of a song:

Spoiler: Lyrics (click to show/hide)

A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a horse of course
That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mr. Ed.

Go right to the source and ask the horse
He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse.
He's always on a steady course.
Talk to Mr. Ed.

People yakkity yak a streak and waste your time of day
But Mister Ed will never speak unless he has something to say.

A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And this one'll talk 'til his voice is hoarse.
You never heard of a talking horse?

Well listen to this.

I am Mister Ed.
